Molly Holly had to shave her hair after losing her title vs. hair match against the then women\’s champion Victoria at WrestleMania 20. According to the female star, she was the one who pitched the idea to WWE creative.
The WWE Hall Of Famer recently had an interview with Shoot Conversations. Reflecting on the match, she wished that they had a longer build for the bout.
Discussing the unique stipulation of their match, Holly revealed that she was the one who pitched the idea. She had to take the drastic measure because the alternative was not having a match at the show at all:
\”It was just pretty much, they said they weren\’t going to have a Women\’s Title match at WrestleMania, they said there was no room for it. I was like, \’drastic times call for drastic measures.\’\”
How Molly Holly Felt After Getting Approval
Molly Holly described how she made a plan and took photos of herself in a bald cap in hopes of convincing the management. She then recalled pitching the idea and revealed how she felt when it was approved:
\”I think the photographs of me with the bald head helped. Like, \’oh, this does look pretty dramatic.\’ I pitched it and couldn\’t believe that they were like, \’yeah, that\’ll work. I believe I walked into an office where there was like Stephanie, Vince, Brian Gewirtz, Ed Koskey, and a room full of people,\”
The wrestling veteran later also described how she felt after getting her head shaved. She claimed that it was freeing. According to her, if completely shaving head was common for girls, it would be the hairstyle she would keep.
