I'm assuming this is a joke, but Balor and Rusev are just fine. Viktor is starting to look like Stabler from SVU. He needs to bulk up a little and do something with the hair. Neville probably won't get too far because he looks like a jacked Screech Powers with a massive forehead. Gotta throw a mask on him or something...amazing talent though. Finn had more hair in his NOAH/New Japan days. He actually looked good in that one NXT show where he pasted it back like Punk, if he shaved his Orton beard and did that with his hair, he would look better but it really makes no difference since he's doing just fine and is over in NXT (why fix what's not broken?) The paint will help in the longterm.

The paint will help in the longterm. Yeah his hair isn't as good and wavy as it was in NOAH. His temples are really high up now. He looks better with the paint than without. Even in his really early years his hair was thin in the front and he didn't have bags under his eyes like he does now.

It's sad that Alex Wright shaved his head completely bald in 2000. His hair never grew back the same. He was probably the best looking midcarder with a lot of sex appeal and after Berlyn, he looked like a German Christopher Daniels. He had a great head of hair and after he shaved it he never looked the same (he got bald and then fat, like John Travolta).

Daniel Bryan looks great with a bear.He does have a "nerd looking" face ,the beard fits much more with his persona since his whole "NO" disgruntled phase and even as"Man of the people" and overall better looking.

Christian is a pretty good looking guy. All this talk makes it sound like his ugly.
Seeing as most of the biggest guys in the industry were bald I don't believe this is a major problem either.

It seems like most of the successful wrestlers are a combo of handsome and rugged looking - at least since the 80s. If you look too doofy or ugly it won't work.
Heck even some of the people that are portrayed as ugly, like Mick Foley are reasonably handsome guys.
Jerry Saggs was never gonna be a main event singles wrestler.

Sara Del Rey If she was better looking facially, I think she would have been a big star in wwe. I think Sara Del Rey is drop dead gorgeous, but what do I know?

Oddly enough, one of the most successful wrestler of all time (Hogan) had the worst hair and probably isn't considered good looking by most.
Alex Wright was always a good looking dude, but his hair was thinning before he shaved it. I think it was part of the reason Berlyn had a shaved head.
Thinning hair didn't really matter at all for guys like The Big Bossman. He looked pretty much the same even when he lost most of his hair. Curtis Axel, though not successful, isn't really hindered by his hair (I feel he'd be in the exact same spot with thicker hair).

Apparently Chris Masters got his hair fixed. I'm shocked more don't do the same.

Sting should have went to Chavo's hair specialist.

Wasn't there news (newz?) back in the day that the reason Frankie Kazarian didn't sign after all those Velocity appearances in 2005 was because they requested he cut his hair and he refused? Seem to remember that doing the rounds.
Also, unrelated - Lance Storm tells a hilarious story about the Unamericans getting called to a meeting by Vince, with Vince saying he wanted Christian and Test to have their hair cut "like Lance" and Test adamantly refusing saying he'd "look like a f***ing idiot," then following it with "no offence, Lance." Brilliant.

I remember when all the gals used to fancy Ambrose for being such a dreamboat and wanted to tip the light fantastic with him doing the texas two step. Those days seem long ago now and his looks these days could hinder him for being the big man on campus.

He's pretty handsome with the short hair. Looking back though, he was fugly with the long hair and facial hair of Edge and Christian's run on top.

Oh come on OP. AJ Styles is one of the prettiest wrestlers ever hence his big following FROM THE GAY COMMUNITY! Anyways I think any wrestler can make any look work if that look makes him stand out and compliment the character and his ring style. If the character fails than the look fails.
Daniel Bryan is my favorite example of this theory. He reached Indie God status while looking like a bland pale looking dude with a horrible fashion sense and being tiny but he succeeded because he made the look part of his gimmick that connected with the audience and the gimmick was a part of his true self hence why he was comfortable playing the role. Than he succeeded again in the WWE playing the same role during his first few years. And again he succeeded when he grew out his hair and beard which complimented his change of in ring style (from slow plodding technician to fast paced brawler) and brought up elements of his real life hippy hipster attitude.
In The Ruthless Aggression era every new guy was either a handsome as f*** clean cut dude bro or a legit hoss who looked f***ing legit. But outside of having a good look, most of the guys sucked and couldn't connect with the crowd because they didn't know how. On paper that should of been one of the most successful eras in bringing up new talent but it's one of the worst.
In a Freaky Friday situation I'm convinced if you have Luther Reigns and Kevin Owens switch bodies or Dean Ambrose and Sylvian Grenier switched bodies, Owens as Reigns and Ambrose as Grenier would be mega stars because great workers will always find ways to get over no matter what. Will the looks be different? Probably because great workers know when something isn't working and will immediately know if the look is the cause of problems.
Also Luther Reigns in Kevin Owens body cutting his infamous thanksgiving day promo will be the greatest thing of all time

He looked like Dennis Quaid in DragonHeart but a metrosexual version when he tag teamed with Edge.
