When asked what his “secret” was, the wrestler replied, “You have to take the ones from the side and plug them in on top. It just takes a while to come in. It’s coming in. Hopefully, in a couple of months it looks better.”

“There’s another headline for you: Hair transplant. There is no shame in that. I have a problem, I try to fix it,” he continued. “I’m not going to tell you who did it because I’m still waiting for it to get better. Once it’s better and I get the long flowing locks, I’ll be like, ‘Go to this guy.’”

“I just saw so many bald spots signs,” the Peacemaker star added. “Your hair falls out because the new ones have to grow, so the old ones fall out. I had it in November, that’s when I became half a skinhead.”

Pointing to the live audience, he sarcastically said, “By the way, thank you for being so aware of my needs and emotions because you guys ripped me to shreds for a genetic problem that I can’t control. ‘You don’t look good enough out there.’ This isn’t cool. You guys aren’t cool to me. I’m in the Rumble trying to win, you’re like, ‘Man has a bald spot.’”

“That’s not fair. I can’t control that. It happens to seven out of 10 dudes,” he said. “One of you sons of bitches could’ve pulled me to the side. But no, in unison, you chant and make me feel small and embarrass me. Y’all don’t know what that’s like. That is straight-up bullying and not cool. Thank you for bullying me into getting surgical hair replacement. That’s how far y’all pushed me.”
