5 Shocking WWE backstage traditions you didn't know about

#3. Don't sleep if you're a passenger

Superstars are expected to stay awake on the road, even if they're not the one driving.

The life of a WWE Superstar can be a tough deal.

Not only do you have to deal with bumps and injuries in the ring, but when you're not in the ring or training, you're probably on the road, traveling for hundreds of miles in the dead of night.

Therefore, there is an unwritten rule that Superstars who aren't driving, need to stay awake and keep their colleague company.

This is definitely a good backstage tradition, as having two or more people awake in the car will definitely keep the driver more alert during the long haul.

In addition, this rule must prove to be a fantastic bonding exercise for Superstars, who get to know their fellow wrestlers and make lifelong friendships whilst traveling on the road together.
