5 WWE Haircuts That Defined The Attitude Era

1. Vince McMahon

Vince is a vain man. No question. From his tailored suits to his hilariously exaggerated strut, his ruthless self-confidence is the stuff of legend €“ and nowhere is it more apparent than in his haircut, or lack thereof. Vince masterminded the Attitude Era, his own persona growing a life of its own as it metamorphosed from run-of-the-mill commentator to evil genius. From one end of the era to the other, Vince was unrecognizable, yet his business bouff remained intact. While the gently waving fronds of his expensive coiffure spoke to his privilege, it was at odds with the perspiring face a mostly self-made man and the contorted features of a boss driven insane by his star employee. As he swaggered down the ramp in full ring attire, his hair remained dry, combed into a mini-mane befitting his station €“ and even when his character stooped to ever-more depraved depths, his follicles spoke volumes: I am a businessman, this is my business, and I mean business. By the time the odious Donald Trump shaved Vince's head at WrestleMania 23, the Attitude Era was long gone, but few will forget that McMahon's coif had been a constant throughout his company's glory days; the unchanging style statement of the most persistent promoter in the business.
