WWE Chairman Vince McMahon reportedly sent a mandate to NXT 2.0 coaches stating that they had to try and “look younger.”
Former WWE coach Scotty 2 Hotty recently appeared on the Talk Is Jericho podcast and revealed what happened backstage after Triple H had to take time away for health issues.
‘Hunter went away and the other guys started to come in” Scotty revealed. “It was, ’˜Ok, we gotta get back to business casual again.’
“The next week it was, ’˜Vince wants the coaches looking younger, so we need you guys to start dyeing your beards and cutting your hair” Scotty continued.
“I literally lost sleep over it. I’ve had every kind of facial hair, dye, goatee, the beard, spiked up hair, bald head. It’s not about that. It’s like, if they’re going to have us jump through hoops like monkeys just to see if they’ll do it, so if you do that, what’s next?’ the former WWF Tag Team Champion concluded.
