Just what was the most vital part of Baron Corbin's appearance, in terms of a change in recent years? No, no, it wasn't, despite what you may think, the ditching of the waistcoats that became the butt of a million jokes on screen and online. It was, in our view, the cutting of his hair.

After graduating from NXT to the main roster, Corbin's character was that of the Lone Wolf - he'd enter areas, swaying his head and long hair all around before making his way to the ring. Now, though, with a virtually bald head, that's altogether more difficult.

Corbin's ditching of his locks coincided with a complete reinvention of his character - which was timely when you consider he became the General Manager of RAW not long after. In fact, Corbin is now so recognisable in his current style, that's hard even to imagine him with long, black hair.

The observant among you will know that Corbin is a little different to some who we've featured here, in as much as he went from having short hair after long hair - despite having short hair prior to that. A close-cropped Corbin wrestled in NXT before he let his hair grow out.
