Snitsky's back acne Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Been watching some old stuff on youtube and it got me thinking how different some wrestlers look throughout their careers, be it through weight gain/weight loss, a gimmick change, illness, age, surgery or whatever. Â So, I figure, as everyone likes a photo thread, I'd start this for people to do a before and after, make comments etc. Â Sadly, I have no idea how to post photos directly on to here so I'll start us off with one. Â Boring old Matt Borne from WrestleMania I's transformation to Doink the Clown.

Dr.PeterVenkman Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I'd say Raven is the best example, Annoying rich lad turns into a smackhead who can take a battering and still win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fye Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 A couple that stand out for me are Smash (I think) to Repo Man, Papa Shango to Godfather - I know he was others in between but I didnt watch at that point - and APA Bradshaw to JBL just for how sudden and on air and how successful it was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Eddie Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 If I am right has Rikishi had 3 Transformations from a headshrinker Fatu to The Sultan to Rikishi. Â After he was Headshrinker Fatu he had a brief spell as socially conscious singles wrestler Fatu, warning the kids about the drugs and the gangs. The kids should have warned him about doing loads of jobs, being a shit gimmick and failing to get over... Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajmcstyles Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 The biggest one I can think of is Dustin Runnels/Rhodes.  Back and forth between Dustin Runnels and Goldust then theres "The Artist Formally Known as Goldust", and Black Reign and not forgetting Seven  Damn you JM I was typing that up as you posted it.  Also, I didnt know at all about his Fatu gimmick, must of been when I was without Sky Sports for a brief period. Thanks Dirty Eddie you learn something new every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loligan Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Raven for me, when I realised that was Johnny Polo I was stunned. Goldust was more of a WTF is Dustin Rhodes doing kinda moment. Hulk Hogan was rather dramatic as well with the black beard and new clobber. I still look at that and cant quite beileve thats my Hulkster from when I was a little Hulkamaniac.

Snitsky's back acne Posted August 4, 2012 Author Share Posted August 4, 2012 A sad one, but Bobby Heenan. Â He looks so unlike he did in his prime due to his cancer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
