WWE Lambasted Miro For Cutting His Hair
Just before he was Chokeslammed 3 times by The Big Show...
Nov 5, 2020
In early 2017, Miro (FKA Rusev) was teaming with Jinder Mahal and was somewhat aimless on Monday Night Raw. The team was primarily used to put over The New Day and Big Cass & Enzo Amore before Rusev was due to take some time off for shoulder surgery.
The former Bulgarian Brute was brought back for one last match against The Big Show at Fastlane 2017 before he went away and the former world champion pinned him after three Chokeslams and a KO Punch.
In between the two matches, though, Miro had his hair cut and The Best Man revealed on Talk Is Jericho that WWE lambasted him for taking a trip to the barbers.
Miro said: "I'm going away with a shoulder surgery... I come back for one match, they make Big Show Chokeslam me four times and Punch me seven times. Yeah, yeah yeah. And they're trying to convince me it's for me to protect my character. Come on, man. Like, I'm not that stupid. I know, I know, and it's okay. You can just tell me because I love Big Show. He put me over when I needed it. I have to put him over. Who cares? I'm not that guy. Just tell me, 'We need three Chokeslams and a Punch. 1-2-3.' 'Great, I will do it.' But, yeah, they threw a big stink about my hair. 'How dare you! How can you! Why didn't you ask?' 'I'm sorry, I'll ask next time.'"
