18 Image Changes WWE Wrestlers Should Never Have Tried

6. Is This Steampunk? No One Knows

Stuck for a way to stand out amongst the fantastic wrestlers on the women€™s roster in NXT, superworker and future standout on the main roster, the amazing Becky Lynch, went the road not travelled. She went steampunk, complete with raggedy top hat, goggles and corsets. An unusual choice, but a good one, as the aesthetic hadn€™t been tried in WWE before: and she certainly stood out. That might have been a little more to do with the questionable decisions made regarding hair colour and skin tone, however. It€™s not that uncommon for professional wrestlers to work with an unnaturally deep tan. Randy Orton has had under-informed people querying his ethnicity for years with the mahogany tone of his skin. And Lynch€™s skin is a rich milk chocolate colour at the moment€ it€™s just that her hair is the most lurid Day-Glo orange imaginable. The combination is€ arresting, to say the least.
