101 WWE Superstars' real names: Asuka, Bray Wyatt, Sasha Banks, and more

#3 WWE Superstars' real names (J-L)

Lana (Catherine Perry) and Liv Morgan (Gionna Daddio) are among the WWE Superstars who have used their real names on social media, while the real names of John Morrison (John Hennigan) and Kane (Glenn Jacobs) are also widely known outside of WWE.

Like Brock Lesnar, John Cena is another high-profile Superstar who was able to use his real name throughout his WWE career. His father, John Cena Sr., has made sporadic WWE appearances over the years, but his son’s on-screen character was never referred to as John Cena Jr.

WWE director Bruce Prichard has said multiple times on his Something to Wrestle With podcast that he cannot explain why some Superstars are allowed to keep their real names and why others have to use a gimmick name.

Keith Lee, for example, uses his real name, but Kevin Owens does not perform under his real name (Kevin Steen) in WWE.
