The WrestleMania 30 main-eventer disappeared from WWE television for three weeks after “The Fiend” ripped out some of his hair on an episode of SmackDown in November 2019. He then returned at the TLC pay-per-view with short hair and hardly any facial hair, much like his original WWE look in 2010.
Speaking to MySanAntonio.com, Bryan explained that he came up with the beard idea as a way to continue his rivalry with “The Fiend” over the Universal Championship on SmackDown. However, WWE’s decision-makers wanted to go one step further by also making him have a drastic haircut.
