WWE’s locker room is where every Superstar gets ready before his match. It’s also a place where wrestler’s court was held, and The Undertaker was the leader. However, several things have changed since the last few years, and now, there’s no more wrestler’s court, and Roman Reigns is the new leader.

The locker room was designed for WWE Superstars so that the can get dressed for their matches and spend some time after they come from wrestling their matches. Over the years, multiple WWE Superstars have shared locker rooms together, and many few interesting stories have emerged about it that you may not know about. Following are such five things about WWE’s locker room.


#5 Brock Lesnar has his private room

Brock Lesnar is an important person for WWE. Lesnar has already a major advantage over other Superstars, which makes him play an essential role for Vince McMahon. The CEO of WWE pays Lesnar a ton of money for making a single appearance, which proves his worth.

It isn't shocking that The Beast doesn’t like to be around with other people, whether its fans or his colleagues. It’s why Lesnar stays in his private room rather than sharing a locker room with other WWE Superstars. During his feud with Roman Reigns last year, we got to see some insights on Lesnar’s private room where he spends time alone.

However, it isn't the first time Lesnar has done something like this. As per Bruce Prichard, The Beast bought a private jet of his own so that he could travel to WWE shows and that happened in 2005. The entire locker room was jealous of Lesnar because he didn't agree to spend time in the plane with fellow wrestlers, but eventually, things happened only the way Lesnar desired.

#4 Misbehavior isn't allowed

When wrestlers share rooms, then there’s a possibility that something wrong could happen. After all, not everybody in the locker room is friends with other Superstars.

Some WWE wrestlers make mistakes that their other colleagues don’t appreciate. One of such things happened with Enzo Amore and he was kicked out of the locker room. Reportedly, Amore punched someone backstage, which made other Superstars turn against him. In a recent interview, he confirmed the story and said,

"You ever heard a story of me getting kicked out of a locker room. That s*** leaks and that’s because I was the only m*********** who would stand up to bullies and punch somebody in their f****** mouth and you guys didn’t hear about that. You heard what they leaked. But Enzo is a real one..." (HT: Fightful.com, language NSFW)

However, the locker room didn’t take it as a positive gesture and asked him to get ready somewhere else.

#3 WWE Superstars celebrate birthdays in style

The locker room is made for Superstars so that they can get dressed before their match and spend some time afterwards. However, this isn't the only thing that happens across this place.

We haven’t seen many pictures or footage of this area, but sometimes WWE has given us a few insights of how this place looks like.

While we have only seen WWE wrestlers smashing pie to the face in the ring, some have done it in the locker room as well. In WWE’s UpUpDownDown YouTube channel, multiple Superstars were seen celebrating birthdays of UUDD, Xavier Woods and more. The famous “who threw pie to Kevin Owens’ face" incident too happened in the WWE locker room. Even though Superstars don't usually celebrate their birthdays during work time but sometimes exceptions could be made. Here’s another video where Seth Rollins smashed an anniversary cake to Xavier Woods’ face.

#2 Locker room doesn’t like Superstars who break rules

The locker room doesn’t like when a Superstars gets more advantage than they do, even if that means leaving the show a few moments early.

A few months ago, rumors emerged that Braun Strowman has gathered some backstage heat for not arriving on the show on time, while also leaving it early than others. It may not seem like a big deal, but for the locker room, it’s not justifiable. Right now, it looks as like Lio Rush is also receiving some backstage heat for multiple reasons. Some stories even suggest that the locker room doesn’t want him to be around for a while.

As of now, Lio isn't appearing on Monday Night Raw and it would be interesting to see when he will return. A rumor also suggests that WWE might send him back to NXT.

#1 John Cena watches every match

John Cena is one of those wrestlers who had a great career in WWE. The 16-time world champion is now focusing more on his acting career, but it doesn’t mean that he won’t return to WWE again.

Whenever Cena gets time to be in WWE, he returns. Despite being the company’s biggest Superstar, Cena doesn’t demand anything special and also shares the locker room with his colleagues. When Kevin Owens appeared on Chris Jericho’s Talk is Jericho podcast, he revealed an interesting story about John Cena.

The former Universal Champion said that Cena watches every match from start to finish while he is in the locker room. As per Owens, Cena does this because he loves to see when the crowd cheers and boos for Superstars performing in the ring.
