A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    I really like the one above and under his eye, I kind of wish he had just done that and not added the one on his cheek. It still looks good though.

    I agree with poster #1, it would look better with the stripes over the eye alone. But it looks pretty badass either way 🙂

    When I first looked I thought it was Samoa Joe 🙂

    I think they look good on him, they suit him well like they were meant to be there.
