That is absolutely disgusting. Not to mention the double standard in place.

Some people simply look better with long hair. Its ridiculous that they would be made to cut their hair simply because it is "out". What do a bunch of guys in tights pretending to fight care about whats in or out anyway?

Also I remember when I used to watch WWF back in about 1991-2, and they used to repeat the slogan "It doesn't matter what you look like, as long as you can fight" or something similar. Since when are they so fashion conscious?

Adults should not be forced to cut their hair by anybody!
Here's a post I made regarding this matter on the 1Wrestling message board.

Do you think it's right or wrong that management asks wrestlers to cut their hair short? Do you think it will hurt their character... or enhance it? Why don't they ask guys like HHH or Nash to cut their hair? And wouldn't Kane suck if he cut his hair too?

That's a shame. Although I'm no longer a fan of his, I think Edge's hair was an intricate part of his character:
How convincing a vampire would Edge have been in The Brood with short hair?
I don't think Edge wouldn't have been able to play a "dumb blonde" quite so well, either (pretaining to the characters he and his partner portrayed whilst tag wrestling with Christian).
Thanks for posting the link; I particularly enjoyed the following response: "Didn't the WWE learn anything when The Big Show cut his hair?"
I don't think its true

I don't think that they asked Christian and Test to cut their hair and if they did it has nothing to do with it being out of style. It probably has something to do with their current gimmick. Longhair is something that u think of when u picture a wrestler. All of the greatest wrestlers have had longhair (Bret Hart, Sting, Shawn Michaels, Flair, Taker etc.) It also make the match look better. When a wrestler "hits" another wrestler and thier head and hair goes swinging back it makes it look a whole lot better. ALso when they talk to each other about some of the upcoming moves during a sleeper hold or something by having their hair in their face u can't see their mouths moving. It is easier to name the wrestlers with short hair than it is the ones with long hair because they're are a whole lot more longhairs than shorthairs. Edge, Kane, RVD, HHH, Nash, Hardy Boyz, Christian, Test, Jericho, Bradshaw, Kidman and many, many more have longhair. And most of the ones with shorthair used to have longhair: Taker, Val Venis, Billy & Chuck, Hurricane, and even the bald Stone Cold had longhair in his early days of wrestling with WCW!!! Longhair is definatley "IN" with wrestling and I doubt that Test and Christian will get their haircut whether they tell them to or not.

And what about DDP? He's awesome, but I heard he retired. I don't know. I don't follow wrestling that closely anymore. I just think it's cool. Like a soap opera for guys.
And also, Goldberg. He - Oh, wait, he was bald.
