10 WWE Stars Who Always Looked Way Better With Beards
7. The Big Show
There are many that believe Big Show's displays of incessant blubbering from last fall were the lowest points of the giant's Hall of Fame career. Others will point to his demotion to Ohio Valley Wrestling in 2000 following struggles with his weight. Some will even refer to his starring turn in the major motion picture Knucklehead, in which he plays the equivalent of a man child. While any of those are valid options, one must look not further than the rare occasions in which Big Show has appeared cleanly shaven to really represent his deepest, darkest moments. Ok, so it is not that bad but it was still really ugly. Big Show looked less like a dominant giant and more like a seven-foot-tall Beluga whale. He still did everything the same as he did in the past but it was hard to get past his appearance. With a face resembling that of Ghostface from the Scream movie series, Big Show captured the WWE Championship in November of 1999 at the Survivor Series and would wear it into the new year, when he would thankfully grow the beard back and momentarily revert back to the dominant force of nature he was meant to be. He would reintroduced the shaved look in 2011 but it would, thankfully, be short lived.
