10 Wrestlers Who Altered Their Body For Their Gimmick

10. Adam Bomb (Tattoo)

It's easy to assume Vince McMahon saw Bryan Clark's mushroom cloud tattoo emblazoned with the pun 'Adam Bomb' during their first meeting and was immediately struck with inspiration. The dreadful, even tasteless pun should tip you off; the whole gimmick was entirely Vince's brainchild.

For the first few weeks of his WWE run, the nuclear newbie could be seen sporting ink of a dragon on his left biceps - imagery entirely incongruous with the rest of the fallout fanatic's outfit. It wouldn't do, and soon enough, Adam Bomb's arm was redecorated with a cartoon depiction of a Fat Man alongside his hilarious name in ludicrous bubble writing.

Strangely, when Clark returned to WCW as Wrath, the tattoo - either the dragon or the bomb - had entirely vanished. Apparently the imprint of a nuclear explosion isn't something that can't be fixed by a painful and expensive session under a laser.
