The ‘Heartbreak Kid’ Shawn Michaels was recently a guest on E&C’s Pod Of Awesomeness. During the podcast, Michaels spoke on a wide variety of topics about his life and career.
During the interview, Michaels discussed why he decided to cut his hair.
It turns out that he originally did it for the film 90 Feet From Home. Here is what he said (via Wrestling INC):
“Before this storyline started, I was doing a movie! I did this independent movie in Texas where I played a younger version with my hair and then I played an older version of me that got sick and everything else, so that’s why I ended up shaving it for the movie.
Michaels also explained why he decided to cut it all off prior to his match at WWE Crown Jewel:
“And then, I get called in to do this thing, and I thought, ‘do you know what? Hunter has got his head bald. I’m just going to go ahead and leave it that way.’ And It was thinning up there anyway, man, and so it was better to just chop it all off And now, it has gotten to where my wife likes it and [Edge and Christian] know the short stuff is much easier to manage.”
