Being a WWE Superstar is not an easy life at all. Not only do you have to deal with bumps and the risk of injury, but there is the consistent pressure to perform in front of huge audiences, as well as being away from home.
With this in mind, it's a sad fact that many Superstar's lives have ended up for the worse after leaving the ring. Some have even had to battle their own personal demons whilst employed, having to juggle their work and personal lives simultaneously.
There are thankfully some stars who have been able to get past these demons and return to their former glory.
Here are five Superstars who hit an all-time low point in their lives, but were able to redeem themselves much to the delight of the fans.
#5 William Regal
If you mention William Regal to a WWE fan in 2019, they'll probably think of the incredible general manager of NXT. But long before Regal played host to the developmental brand, the Blackpool brawler had some very serious problems.
By his own admission, Regal battled with addiction for years, as substances and alcohol dominated his own life. The former Intercontinental Champion has even admitted that his first run with the company, as 'Man's man' Steven Regal, is something he can't at all remember, as he was intoxicated the entire time.
A clear low point, the British star has been able to turn his life around, and now remains a sober man. With a decorated career and seen by many as one of the greatest minds in wrestling, Regal has come a long way from the drunk wrestler he once was.
#4 Scott Hall
In the WWE, Scott Hall entertained fans for years as the charismatic, machismo oozing Razor Ramon, and had even bigger success under his real name when he jumped to WCW and formed the New World Order.
Unfortunately, Hall's career has always been burdened with severe substance abuse problems, as well as brushes with the law.
On October 20, 2011, ESPN aired a special on Hall's life and problems, with several people, including fellow stars such as Scott Hall and Kevin Nash, as well as Hall's ex-wife speaking candidly on the damage these problems had had on the former Intercontinental Champion.
Fortunately, in early 2013, a miracle came in the form of DDP. Moving into Page's house, Hall was able to get himself clean and in 2014 took his very-much earned spot in the WWE Hall of Fame.
#3 Jake 'The Snake' Roberts
Jake 'The Snake' Roberts has had a lot of demons.
Born into a broken home, Roberts would be abused by his father, and would develop severe drinking and drug problems that would only be magnified by the toll that wrestling took on his body.
Despite this, Roberts was one of WWE's biggest stars for years, before leaving the company in 1992.
His arguable rock bottom did not come in WWE, but instead at a Heroes of Wrestling event, where the former star slurred his words and was a danger in the ring.
After years of failed rehab, Roberts finally turned his life around with the help of Diamond Dallas Page, moving into DDP's home and getting sober.
In 2014, Roberts took his rightful place in the Hall of Fame, a sober and happy man.
#2 Paige
If you've seen the new 'Fighting with my Family' biopic, you'll know that former Divas Champion Paige did not have an easy route to WWE.
Leaving her family and homeland behind, the raven-haired warrior struggled to make it in WWE, and even when she was a bonafide Superstar, faced her fair share of problems.
The arguable low point of her career came in 2016 and 2017, as a very toxic relationship with Alberto Del Rio was made public, a series of suspensions affected her mental health, all of which made the British star contemplate suicide.
Despite this, and early retirement, Paige has bounced back from it all, and is seemingly doing much better as an ambassador for the company. Though her in-ring career is sadly over, Paige remains an inspiration in WWE.
#1 Jeff Hardy
Though he has been in the wrestling business for decades, Jeff Hardy remains to be one of WWE's most popular stars, recently capturing the SmackDown Tag Team Titles with brother Matt.
But during his career, Jeff has been rocked with substance abuse problems, with a police raid on his home in 2009 finding plenty of banned substances.
Many argue that Jeff's rock bottom came at TNA's Victory Road event in 2011, where Hardy showed up completely wasted, in no condition to compete. Improvising, it was the ever-professional Sting who took charge, manhandling Hardy and scoring a quick pinfall.
Fortunately for Jeff, the former WWE Champion seems back on the right path, and in his most recent run with WWE, has held both the RAW and SmackDown tag titles, as well as the United States Championship.
