This is so, so odd, but it's the kind of quirky fact that belongs here.

Aiden English worked the pre-show Battle Royal at 'Mania 34 with long hair. Then, by the time he was accompanying Rusev to ringside for the United States Title four-way on the main card, the ex-Vaudevillain sported a shaven head. That's quite the quick cut, Mr. English.

This made Aiden the first guy to sport two distinctly different hairdos on the same pay-per-view. Other than anyone working a 'Hair vs. Hair' match, of course, but that doesn't really count because the chop is expected. English going from long locks to Jason Statham on the same card certainly wasn't.

It's actually a slight shock that WWE let this happen, but there's a chance English didn't make a big deal out of it and sneakily hit the barber chair backstage. Image changes are typically mapped out in advance due to things like action figures, video games etc.
