10 Wrestlers Accused Of Stealing Another Wrestler’s Looks

2. Ryback (From Goldberg)

As mentioned earlier, despite many fans claiming him to be a visual rehashing of WWE's uber-popular Stone Cold Steve Austin, Goldberg still went on to be an absolute megastar in the wrestling industry. So, you just knew it was only a matter of time before a wrestling company tried to recapture 'Da Man's lightening in a bottle.

Sure enough, as soon as WWE's mountain of muscle Ryback began ploughing through his opponents on a weekly basis in 2012, fans immediately began to chant "GOOOOOOLDBERG!" back at the hulking force. Thankfully, he could still mark himself out as something visually different to his clear body-breaking inspiration, wearing an RVD-esque one-piece throughout much of his run.

However, when 'The Big Guy' dropped this attire for a pair of plain black trunks and boots, the claims of Ryback ripping off Goldberg's look and feel only grew louder. He'd eventually part ways with the company just before the WCW icon returned to WWE in 2016, robbing fans of a battle of the bald-headed forces of nature. But that still didn't stop the pair going back and forth in various interviews over the years, though.
