Can anyone suggest if B is incorrect or not?
A) Like many other professional wrestlers, grapller and showman Jeff Hardy began to wear neon clothing and ultraviolet body paint to make a statement.
B) As did many other wrestlers, grapller and showman Jeff Hardy began to wear neon clothing and ultraviolet body paint to make a statement.
I know that A is simple and works like a charm. I have doubts whether there is any tense mistake ("wore" in place of "began to wear") in B.

Well, both wore and began to wear are in the past tense. You're looking at a difference in meaning. Wore makes it sound like a general truth about those people at that time, whereas began to wear seems to suggest that they started wearing something at some time in the past (for example, in response to something).

So that means B is also correct?
