First up is a snapshot look at how select WWE stars have changed over the years. Of the 10 included, Luke Gallows, Sting, Steve Austin, Cody Rhodes and Kevin Nash are the most interesting; check out how the latter morphed from Wizard Of Oz doofus to slick, super-cool Diesel, for example.

Throughout the article, it's easy to spot trends from specific eras in the industry. Maybe it's long hair giving way to short, or maybe it's tattoos covering up bodies where there was only bare skin before, but wrestling sure does love an image update.

Some readers chimed in with a few radical makeovers of their own in the comments, which was welcome. One of the best was Isaac Yankem turning into Kane, and another praised the shift from Papa Shango to The Godfather.

Dean Ambrose could easily be on an updated list.
