Former WWE Star Apologized To Vince McMahon For Getting A Haircut

A fresh look can go a long way for a WWE Superstar and for the majority of his WWE run Heath Slater, now known as Heath Miller, sported long hair. The former SmackDown Tag Team Champion decided to switch up his look when he cut his hair in 2015, but Heath explained to Wrestling Shoot Interviews that Vince McMahon wasn’t thrilled about the fact that he wasn’t told about the new look ahead of time.

“I just straight up told him. I said, ‘Vince, I was done with the long hair. I had it for years. It ran its course. I just want something different.’ I guess he understood. He was like, ‘You ever do anything drastic like that again, you gotta let me know first.’ I said, ‘Yeah, totally, sorry, my bad.’”

“Man, they weren’t doing nothing with me anyway at the time. My career is legit a rollercoaster ride. I’m on the highest of highs and I was on the lowest of lows. That was a time when I was at the lowest of lows. No one’s doing much with me. I’m just doing BS matches that don’t matter, and I said, ‘You know what, scr*w this, man, I’m just gonna change it up.’”

Heath Miller first signed a developmental contract with WWE in 2006 and he went on to become one of the founding members of Nexus. During his WWE run he managed to become a 4 time WWE Tag Team Champion and a 1 time WWE 24/7 Champion. Heath was released from WWE in 2020 and went on to debut with Impact Wrestling later that year.
