I think what always strikes me weird about rebrands to the main roster and why something needed to change is that, well, a good amount of the Raw audiences (not sure about Smackdown since National TV is recorded differently) watches NXT if the numbers are to be believed. So if you call someone up, it’s not like nobody will know who that person is because, well, they watch them weekly the next day. So if you’re going to cut Cole’s hair and call them a different name…a good amount of your audience will know who that is and wonder why they were rebranded. But, well, NXT wasn’t what they wanted and they didn’t make an effort to take advantage of what they did have so here we are. The fact that it’s now a developmental brand basically takes that excuse away so Bron Breakker can’t have his name and style changed because, basically, they would likely want people to know who he is from his NXT exploits because the show is supposed to be an FCW/OVW that people all over the country can actually watch. The irony of everything with NXT is it was pitched to be a better developmental to get people to the main roster. And even Adam Cole, who loved his time in NXT, admits that they were not doing that and that a lot of his friends that got called up talked about how the agents and producers complained about how people from NXT had to be taught all over again It’s still a complete shame that nobody involved in producing for the main roster or upper management themselves could do anything about those problems. Not a single thing could have been done about that. It’s why Michael Eisner still runs Disney to this very day.

Fightful just reported that one of the pitches was for Cole to cut his hair to establish a new look which he immediately shot down. c'mon man, that man isn't even going thin on top. Cutting that hair would legally class as vandalism. I’m 35 and have thick long hair, as I watch my friends all thinning out around me I’m like “there is no way in f*** I’m not riding this out as long as I can”

From my understanding a lot of people used that thread for school projects Just in the sense that it's one of those threads where you think it's dead and gone, only for it to keep popping back up.

He did not re-sign. He did resign.

Now I maintain a sweet Mo Flo (my initials are MO, and I ripped off Bo Bichette). Friend joked last night “What would you do if we cut of your ponytail?” Me “I’d kill every last one of you. Nothing personal”. You don’t f*** with my hair.

Let it grfor the first year and a half of covid as a final hurrah (not sure how I've made it this far with a full head of hair). However, long hair is a pain in the ass so it's short again, which judging by the number of compliments I got, it was the right decision.

I shave my head every couple of months or so because my trich kicks in otherwise.
I don't have to worry about male pattern baldness, but I've been getting gray hairs since my mid 20's, and that's ended up a big trigger for me.
