Oh, oh no.

There are two comedy tropes WWE absolutely love - one is poop or pee-stained toilet humour, and the other is baldness. The problem with this 'Hair vs. Hair' stipulation between Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose is that the people writing this stuff might not be able to resist playing it for laughs.

That could result in Sonya getting her head shaved, which would be the wrong outcome, and then being forced to walk around with a "hilariously" fake-looking wig on episodes of SmackDown as she pretends nothing bad happened. Think Kurt Angle back in 2002, only change his adaptable character for someone who definitely shouldn't be doing comedy right now.

Sonya has been on fire as a ranting, raving, aggressive-beatdown-giving machine lately. It'd be a huge mistake to try and turn her into a humiliated heel who's been put in her place by a giggling babyface (Mandy) and is now the butt of jokes.
