#2 Baron Corbin reveals the reason for cutting his hair
Baron Corbin, who won the 2019 King of the Ring tournament, recently spoke to Peter Rosenburg on his podcast Cheap Heat. The 'King' of SmackDown used to have long hair in NXT and during his early days in WWE but decided to chop off his locks to sport a bald look.
Corbin revealed the reason behind his decision to make this drastic change:
It was that time [for it to go]. And also, it's a nightmare having the long hair because, first of all, you are pouring like 40 gallons of conditioner in there all the time when you are wrestling, otherwise, you are going to choke and die on it. It's funny because you have to learn the ways of how to deal with your hair, so I got leave-in conditioner the first time and it dried out immediately. So I said, 'Okay, that didn't work.' So you're out there buying all these kinds of conditioners just to try and keep your hair wet.
It's a dead giveaway when you are out in public and have long hair. [People] immediately gravitate towards you and ask if you are a pro wrestler. So, those are the kinds of conversations that I don't want to have.
