5 WWE Superstars who lost their hair in a match

On the July 31st episode of WWE SmackDown, fans were shocked when Sonya Deville attacked Mandy Rose. Deville smeared lipstick across Rose's face, shoved her to the floor, and even started hacking away at her long, blonde hair.

The action came to a head when Sonya grabbed an electric razor, ready to shave her former best friend's head. She was only stopped by a group of officials who tore her away from Mandy and called for help.

WWE seems to be hinting towards the former best friends taking part in a hair vs hair match at this year's SummerSlam. During their rivalry in WWE, Sonya Deville's focus seems to be on Mandy Rose's looks, and the pair putting their hair on the line could be the next step.

We have seen many Superstars lose their hair in front of a crowd before in WWE, and here are five of the most memorable ones that we've had so far.

#5 Kevin Nash

Back in 2003, Kevin Nash and Chris Jericho were deep into a feud in WWE that was taking many twists and turns. The rivalry heated up when Y2J challenged Big Sexy to a hair vs hair match. In the lead-up, Jericho tried to weasel out of the stipulation that he had suggested, but Nash was insistent that it was to go ahead.

Jericho ended up winning the match thanks to some of his sly tactics and was so excited for Nash's haircut that he immediately snatched a huge pair of scissors away from the barber. Y2J started clumsily chopping huge chunks of Nash's blonde locks away.

As Jericho left the ring, holding aloft literally half of Nash's hair, Nash was left in the middle of the arena, looking like a small child had given him a new 'do.

#4 CM Punk

Rey Mysterio shaves CM Punk bald

Back in 2010, CM Punk was the biggest heel in WWE, leading his apparent "apostles" Serena, Joseph Mercury and Luke Gallows. Through the year, Punk and Rey Mysterio had engaged in an intense rivalry.

The Voice of the Voiceless was intent on Rey Mysterio joining his Straight-Edge Society, and at WrestleMania XXVI, a match between the two was even set with the stipulation that if Mysterio lost, he would have to join the clean-living group.

At the height of the tension between the pair, a Hair vs Straight Edge Society Pledge was booked at No Way Out later that year. After an intense back-and-forth that captivated fans, Mysterio emerged the winner and immediately set to shearing the locks of the loudmouth leader Punk. The WWE Universe was delighted to see the leader of the Straight-Edge Society finally get what he deserved.

After this clash, the pair remained rivals for a short time, taking part in a fatal four-way match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, which Mysterio won.

#3 Vince McMahon

Mr McMahon getting his new haircut

In the lead up to WrestleMania 23, WWE promoted a Hair vs Hair match between owner Vince McMahon and Donald Trump, dubbing it the Battle of the Billionaires. Each of the billionaires was represented by a member of the roster. McMahon had the Intercontinental Champion Umaga, in his corner, whilst Trump had ECW Champion, Bobby Lashley, fighting on his behalf.

The clash was a chaotic one. It was originally supposed to be refereed by special guest Stone Cold Steve Austin, however, The Texas Rattlesnake fell victim to an attack by Umaga. McMahon's son Shane attempted to replace him, acting favourably to his father's representative. Austin then made a comeback after hitting Shane McMahon with his signature Stunner at ringside and Lashley ended up as the winner.

Following the match, Trump and Lashley unleashed the foam and razors on the head of McMahon, buzzing him completely bald in front of the thousands in attendance. On McMahon's post-WrestleMania appearances in WWE, he often appeared wearing an array of hats on WWE television to hide his new haircut from the crowds.

#2 Molly Holly

In 2004, Molly Holly lost her Women's Championship title to Victoria at WWE Elimination Chamber which led to an intense feud between the two. This lead to the pair taking part in a Hair vs. Title match at WrestleMania XX.

The idea was pitched to Vince McMahon by Molly Holly herself, who had wanted to do something big at WrestleMania. At the time, women didn't often have big moments in the same way as the male superstars - highlighted by fans voting for the women to dress as schoolgirls for a WWE PPV later that year.

At WrestleMania XX, Victoria managed to keep hold of her title and her hair. Molly Holly was desperate to avoid the stipulation, even attempting to run away from her foe, but Victoria got the better of her with a backslide pin.

After winning, she took much delight in shaving Holly bald in the arena for all to see. Following WrestleMania, Molly Holly tried to disguise her hair on WWE TV by using a variety of wigs.

#1 Kurt Angle

Edge shaves off Kurt Angle's hair

Up until 2002, Kurt Angle and Edge were friends. However, the pair began to become rivals after WrestleMania 18, when Angle was insisting that he was the best that there was in WWE.

Angle lost to former ally Edge, which built tension between the two of them. The pair faced off in a series of matches, both coming off strong - something which infuriated Angle. To settle the matter, the pair were booked into a Hair versus Hair match at the 2002 installment of WWE Judgement Day.

During their match, Edge managed to work his way out of an Angle Lock to be able to pin the Olympic Hero. The Rated-R Superstar emerged as the winner, having the honour of shaving the head of his rival. Edge used the clippers on Angle on the ramp, while a barber watched on.

After this, Angle wore a wig on TV for a while. The wigs that he wore were terrible and often held to his head with a piece of wrestling headgear. As a short-lived skit, Angle's opponents would often try and remove his wig, before the bald look was embraced by the Olympic Hero on WWE television.
