The second AEW Grand Slam Australia took place on February 14, 2026, at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, featuring several huge matches. And while not the main event, one of the most eagerly anticipated bouts was the tag-team match with a hair vs. hair stipulation, which saw Orange Cassidy and “Timeless” Toni Storm defeat Wheeler Yuta and Marina Shafir.
And while this won’t air until Saturday night, photos and videos of Yuta, who took the fall, have been shared on social media by fans in attendance, showing the top of his head shaved bald, which some have likened to Hulk Hogan’s hairstyle.
Hair vs. hair matches have been rooted in lucha libre tradition since the 1940s, often delivering intense spectacle through what is considered public humiliation. However, many of the most iconic hair vs. hair matches have actually taken place in the States, with Roddy Piper vs. Adrian Adonis at WrestleMania III and Kurt Angle vs. Edge among the most memorable. Still, WWE’s “Battle of the Billionaires” proxy match at WrestleMania 23, which saw Vince McMahon have his head shaved, will likely always be considered the most famous thanks to Donald Trump’s involvement.
