WWE Women Who Underwent Huge Physical Transformations

10 Current WWE Wrestlers Who Look Like Average Joes

These WWE wrestlers have larger-than-life personalities and characters, but they don’t necessarily fit the billing of the stereotypical WWE Superstar.

For the women in WWE, there have been many times when there have been changes to everything in their character. Some did it to revitalize their characters, while others did it at the request of WWE. Nonetheless, these are women in WWE who made very significant changes to their looks.

Chelsea Green is one of the most popular and underrated wrestlers on the WWE roster today. She has a ton of character and charisma, making her beloved by many fans. However, fans might not remember her very first appearance on WWE television.

When Green first appeared on WWE TV, it was not even under her own name. She was known as Megan Miller, Bryan Danielson’s physical therapist, and had a confrontation with Brie Bella. It is an often forgotten part of her longer journey to where she is in WWE now.

It Was In Support Of Her Sister

As you can see in the picture, Shotzi underwent a huge physical transformation. She used to have long, green hair, which made her stand out wherever she went, her hair was pretty much her mark. But she decided to shave her hair off in support of her sister’s battle with cancer and going through chemotherapy. It was an admirable move by Shotzi, and she could not have had a bigger physical transformation than this one.

Wendy Choo Has Resorted To A Totally New Character

Wendy Choo has undergone a few character changes during her time in WWE. She has, in WWE, wrestled under the names Karen Q and Mei Ying. When she debuted the Wendy Choo persona, it was a character who used to love to sleep and essentially wrestled in pajamas.

Her 2024 return to WWE once again saw Choo debut a new look. No longer in pajamas, Choo now debuted a darker and more violent character. She has since aligned herself in NXT with TNA’s Rosemary.

Mandy Rose Reached Her Peak In NXT

She Finally Found Her Footing

Remember when Mandy Rose appeared on WWE Tough Enough? She was thin, blonde, and didn’t have outstanding muscles. But over the years, she spent many hours in the gym and toned her body, underwent a couple of plastic surgeries and, in her last NXT run, painted her hair black. Rose came into WWE as one person, and left as another, at least in terms of appearance. She has reverted to her blonde look in her post-WWE career, where she has a highly successful OnlyFans account, a beauty brand called Amarose, and DaMandyz Donuts.

Dakota Kai Has Undergone Many Changes In Her Looks

How WWE Have Ruined Damage CTRL For A Second Time

The Damage CTRL stable has had a mixed record of success in WWE, but their latest storyline development shows that they’re ruining them again.

Dakota Kai came to WWE in 2017 and has since changed her look several times. She loves to paint her hair and change her hairstyle as in her WWE career alone she’s sported several different looks. But that’s not all, she has also changed her ring gear on a frequent basis, and also her physique has gotten more muscular and toned as her WWE career rolled on. Kai has gone through several physical changes since she came to the company, and she will surely continue to change her look in the future.

Trish Stratus Has Focused On Fitness

She Feuded With Becky Lynch In A Recent Return

When she got her start in WWE, former fitness model turned wannabe Diva Trish Stratus had the look that Vince McMahon has always yearned for – and she used it to her advantage throughout her career.

However, in the ring she always kept her figure covered, so the focus would be on her in ring work. After her career as a full time superstar was done, Trish toned big time, trading in her in-ring physique for a yogi physique and dyed her hair to a brunette look.

Notable Accomplishments N/A

Known far more for her fiery red locks than any attempt she made at having a decent match in the ring, Eva Marie gets a bad rap in that regard.

When she left WWE in late 2016, she ditched the red hair for dark raven colored locks for a movie she was working on – Inconceivable. When she returned in 2021, she looked slightly different but did return to her trademark red hair.

Kaitlyn Changed After WWE

She Was A Former Champion In The Promotion

There was a brief moment in time when Kaitlyn was poised for a much bigger and brighter future in the wrestling business. She was even briefly Divas Champion. Instead, the former bodybuilder left the WWE in 2014, shortly after her feud with AJ Lee.

In the years since, she has changed the way she sculpted her body and has a half-shaven head. Her followers know it’s her, but she really doesn’t look anything like she did during her run.

Jillian Hall Got Started In The Business Early

She Was Invovled In Many Different Roles

Getting her start in the business at just 18 years old, Jillian Hall got her start training under Fit Finlay. Her physical changes were actually worked into a storyline during her time in OVW where the hair dye and implants drove her completely insane, which was a unique way to explain the new look.

Lest we forget the massive and grotesque mole that looked like something out of the old alien invasion show, V – before the Boogeyman ate it.

Rhea Ripley Became The Eradicator Of WWE

She Used Have Long Blonde Hair And No Tattoos

From the blonde hair to becoming “The Nightmare” that dominates on Monday Night RAW with Damian Priest, it’s been nearly a decade of change for the former member of The Judgment Day.

During the first Mae Young Classic, she looked very similar to fellow New Zealander Toni Storm, and was told as much. She returned one year later with a badass musclebound female look and has gotten progressively darker, punkier, and more muscular ever since. All of that culminated to the current day Rhea Ripley that fans know and love.

Natalya Has Been In WWE For Almost Two Decades

She Has Seen Countless Eras Of The Company

Natalya too has changed her look over the years. She has always incorporated her family’s pink and black and love for cats. In the beginning of her career, she used to have orange hair and less of a look that reminded fans of the Hart Foundation. She’s rocked incredibly high heels and a beret that sort of looked like one The Anvil used to wear. But, she also has not been afraid to try on her own, unique looks.

Charlotte Flair Has Done It All

She Has Evolved Throughout Her Time In WWE

Maybe it’s the heels she wears when she’s bot wrestling, but it does seem that The Queen has gotten taller since debuting on the main roster seven years ago? Or perhaps it’s the transition to a Peggy Bundy hairstyle? In either event Charlotte has gone through a metamorphosis over the past half a decade.

The former Fitness Trainer-turned WWE Superstar has packed on the muscle over the years in some areas and tightened up others. More so than anyone on this list, the divisive champion has gone to all sorts of lengths to put herself together the way she sees fit.

She Was A Part Of The Straight Edge Society

Notable Accomplishments N/A

In 2010, CM Punk began his quasi-cult faction called the Straight Edge Society. He made his followers dedicate themselves to him and the straight edge lifestyle that he followed. Punk recruited Serena into the group and as a part of her dedication to it, she shaved her head in the ring.

Serena only wrestled one match during this period of her career. But, she became one of the most recognizable members of the group and it has become one of the most recognized parts of CM Punk’s career.

Asuka Changed In 2023

10 Flashiest Strikers In Pro Wrestling History

Forget about technical wrestling and submission moves, these wrestlers were the best at hitting their opponents with their flashy strikes!

Having returned at the 2023 Royal Rumble to a huge ovation that got even wilder when she revealed the new face paint, it was clear Asuka was done singing and dancing and playing a caricature of herself.

Her new look for WWE fans is a riff on her old KANA look from Japan. But that’s not the only change The Empress Of Tomorrow has gone through over the years. She came back leaner and meaner too, to show the world that no one is indeed ready for Asuka.

Chyna Was The 9th Wonder Of The World

Whether it be physical or artificial, every change Chyna made during her career only helped to enhance her look and help make her the trailblazer that she is finally credited with being.

She spent years sculpting her body as a bodybuilder. But as she got better in the ring, she slimmed down to have more of a feminine look. She not only had breast augmentation surgery, but she also got a nose job which helped her fit the look WWE strived for in that era.
