Former WWE star and Playboy cover girl Sable looks unrecognisable at 56 as she makes rare public appearance

FORMER WWE star Sable looked unrecognisable during a recent public appearance.

The popular ex-WWE champion, 56, starred for the promotion across two spells between 1996 and 2004.

She proved to be a smash hit with fans, appearing as Playboy's cover girl three times - with one of those issues remaining the magazine's highest-selling edition ever.

Sable went on to marry WWE star Brock Lesnar in 2006, with the pair keeping their relationship largely private.

They have two children together; Turk, 15, and Duke, 14.

Sable - real name Rena Lesnar - now largely stays out of the spotlight.

But earlier this week, she was spotted attending a country music concert with husband Brock.

She smiled for a backstage snap alongside her man.

The former WWE favourite has ditched her 90s bright blonde hairdo for a straight, darker blonde look.

She wore a white top and black leather trousers for the occasion.

Fans online were very complimentary of Sable's new look.

One wrote on X: "She looks great still."

While a second gushed: "She's still pretty!"

A third claimed: "She looks better now."

And another added: "She looks good."
