10 Sneaky WWE Makeovers

3. Braun Strowman

As a former strongman competitor, Braun Strowman has always been thick-bodied. His barrel chest, huge shoulders and remarkable size helped him stand out when he debuted on WWE TV in 2015. Unfortunately, so did his gut. That stomach has been steadily disappearing over the past four years.

In 2019, big Braun has abs.

Looking at his side-by-side is like looking at two different men. Cropping the sides of his hair down and tying the rest in braids has given him a mean, viking look, and his beard also has loads more shape than it used to. On the body side of things, Braun has tightened up his muscle without sacrificing much size and hit the tanning beds.

He's another who could trick fans into thinking he looked the same as before. Compare his presentation now to how he looked when squashing James Ellsworth in 2016 though and it's night and day. Everything about Strowman just has more sheen in 2019.
