Great used professional wrestling ring attire worn by Mike Dunham - better known as Johnny Grunge of the popular tag team, The Public Enemy. Both pieces show nice ring use; as they were used early in his career they were made with a black vinyl-type material which has dried and now displays some flaking. Pullover vest-style top has a gray chain design around the neck joined at the front collar by a gray lock holding the initials "JG." Back has GRUNGE in off-white lettering above the number 69. Pants are in the same black material with gray barbed wire design sewn to the left thigh, and right thigh bearing the graffiti-style letters "SPP," standing for South Philly Posse. Along with his partner, "Flyboy" Rocco Rock (Ted Petty), they formed The Public Enemy in ECW, where they combined hardcore streetfighting style with surprising agility for their respective sizes to become one of the most popular attractions among the fledgling promotion's cult following. Though they didn't necessarily have "the look," their overall charisma led to them joining "the big leagues" by performing in both World Championship Wrestling and the World Wrestling Federation.
