WWE has been named a finalist in the fifth annual Shorty Social Good Awards, which will be held as a digital ceremony on Thursday, Nov. 19.
WWE Advanced Media Group garnered the nomination for WWE’s first-ever no makeup photo shoot, which featured many of WWE’s prominent female Superstars without makeup. Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, Rhea Ripley, Ruby Riott, Carmella, Bianca Belair, Io Shirai and Dana Brooke all participated.
“Being able to feel comfortable in your skin and not playing dress up is so important,” Flair said at the time of the photo shoot. “My character has to be so over the top and perfect all the time; just walking out and feeling fresh feels so empowering.”
“It’s very hard to show the real pimples, the uneven skin, but I think it’s very beautiful to embrace that,” Banks said at the time of the photo shoot. “We are getting lost in this world of not embracing who we are.”
