Several wrestling figures have weighed in on MVP’s fresh appearance, which he recently unveiled on Instagram.
Montel Vontavious Porter, widely known as MVP, has opted for a clean-shaven look, rendering him almost unrecognizable compared to his previous style.
Sharing the transformation on his official Instagram handle, he sparked a flurry of reactions from fellow wrestlers and fans alike.
Among those chiming in on MVP’s revamped appearance were a variety of wrestling personalities and enthusiasts. The responses poured in, underscoring the impact of MVP’s makeover within the wrestling community.
Reflecting on his journey, MVP disclosed his contemplation of retirement prior to his return to WWE in 2020. His comeback was marked by an appearance in the Men’s Royal Rumble match, albeit with little fanfare as he was swiftly eliminated by Brock Lesnar.
In a recent conversation with Chris Van Vliet, the former United States Champion expressed profound gratitude for his WWE return, emphasizing the unexpected turns that led him back to the ring:
“I never imagined I’d be back in WWE. It’s funny, because I was on the verge of retiring. I only wanted to return so my son could witness my wrestling career, and then I transitioned into a producer role. When the pandemic struck, WWE reached out and asked, ‘Could you assist us with talent?’ Before I knew it, years later, I found myself embarking on what feels like a mythical ‘one more run’. You often hear wrestlers say, ‘If I could just make it to New York for one more run…’ Well, here I am, living out that mythical one more run, and I consider myself incredibly fortunate.” [H/T WrestlingInc]
During his initial stint with WWE in the late 2000s, Porter emerged as a prominent fixture on television screens.
Despite his success as a mid-card performer, he never ascended to the ranks of a top champion, much to the dismay of many fervent supporters.
Notably, he clinched the United States Championship on two occasions, cementing his legacy within the annals of WWE history.
