Facial hair is an important part of wrestling - of course, that's because it's an important part of manliness, and manliness and pro wrestling go hand in hand. Only the toughest of the tough can truly hope to step through those ropes and earn a living, and usually, those are guys with so much testosterone that's it's oozing out onto their faces. Bad-ass bearded barbarians like Ivan Koloff, Bruiser Brody, and Daniel Bryan have set records and whipped behinds all over the world. Stone Cold Steve Austin would have been a bit sickly-looking without his trademark goatee. Even The Rock had some sweet sideburns when he was making a name for himself. Amongst all pro wrestling facial hair, though, the most exalted specimen is the mustache. The face fur of the working man, mustaches have found an everlasting home on the men who ply their trade in the squared circle. After all, what better way to punctuate a beating than with a statement of both machismo and style? In honor of Movember, here are the twenty-five best mustaches in the history of pro wrestling. Though they vary in thickness, shade, and overall application, each one has found a home on the face of a grappler, and in turn, has increased his strength a thousand-fold.
