After a brief hiatus, Vince McMahon recently returned to the leadership and active ownership of WWE.
It looks like he brought some new facial hair with him.
The Chairman of WWE hasn’t made too many public appearances since he returned to handling the day-to-day duties and that’s why the wrestling world was shocked Friday to learn that the 77-year-old is sporting a pretty solid mustache these days.
That’s quite the look change for the longtime WWE owner, who was last seen with graying hair. He also has never sported a mustache before as part of his public persona.
Naturally, WWE fans are having some strong reactions to the look and style of the ‘stache.
Vince McMahon is now Norm Macdonald doing Burt Reynolds on Celebrity Jeopardy,” said Mike Beauvais.
“[vince barges into the Just For Men corporate headquarters] MAKE ME LOOK LIKE A YOUNG CESAR ROMERO, PAL,” said Bill Hanstock.

“Vince McMahon doing his best John Waters impression was not on my 2023 bingo card,” said Rob Lopez.
We’ll have to see if Vince breaks out the mustache during WrestleMania this weekend.
McMahon had stepped down as CEO and chairman last summer after it was revealed he had paid millions in hush money to women who had made sexual misconduct allegations against him. In January, he returned as executive chairman and announced his intention to sell the company.
