Shaving his head proved to be a wise decision on Angle's part

In the summer of 2002, Kurt Angle was feuding with Edge. Angle had always been a dedicated athlete and was ready to go to any lengths to build up his character.

Angle proposed the idea to go completely bald, and use this to advance his storyline with Edge. Vince agreed as Angle was already on the verge of going bald.

At Judgment Day 2002, Angle lost a "Hair vs Hair" match against Edge and proceeded to get his head shaved bald on PPV. The shaved head was used in Kurt Angle's character progression and he went on to become a ruthless heel, as opposed to his former goofy persona.

By the end of 2005, Angle had turned into one of the most intimidating and dominant athletes on the WWE roster. He went on to move to SmackDown and win the World Heavyweight title in a battle royal, after eliminating Mark Henry. Angle soon left the company and moved to TNA.
