10 Most Shocking WWE Transformations Since 2020

Rhea Ripley has always been open and honest about feeling the need to fit into WWE's preconceived notions of what female wrestlers should look like. The Diva days hangover was still lingering when she signed in 2017. Things had changed, but Rhea believed she'd have a better chance of making it if she had long blonde hair.

In short, she didn't feel comfortable being herself and experimenting with a look.

That'd change. By 2020, Ripley was NXT Women's Champ and had more confidence. Her short-haired rocker look grabbed attention, but that was only the beginning. Over the next four years, Rhea dabbled with a few other hairstyles and outfits, but doubled down on the goth vibes when creating the 'Mami' character for Judgment Day.

Today, Ripley knows she's in control of her image. Her striking appearance is one of wrestling's best, and it's helped turn Rhea into a 'Terror Twin' (alongside Damian Priest) who draws favourable comparisons to Chyna. Rhea will probably change again, but she's struck gold with her current look.
