WWE: 15 Photos Showing What Your Favorite Wrestlers Like to Drive

It's fun, but not easy; script, but completely authentic; expected, but unimaginable - this is WWE. WWE has long been in the spotlight of millions of people around the world. It represents masculinity, masculinity and strength.

While you may have already known about it, you may not know how often or even how your favorite wrestlers travel. Although they may appear on TV once a week, their schedule is more packed than what you might imagine on TV. They travel three or four nights every week to different cities. Let's not forget that, unlike ordinary people, these professional wrestlers must use their body to perform in the ring. Jumping down stairs and smashing your body is tough, but traveling multiple cities in a week takes physical fatigue to a whole new level.

Some elite wrestlers, like John Cena, for example, have private tour buses and first-class accommodation on planes, making travel much easier for them. As you will see below, some even have a car collection. The rest travel on shared buses, rented cars or own cars. Whatever the case, these professional wrestlers have a wide variety of interests when it comes to vehicles.

I have also included some items on the list that are not necessarily considered personal vehicles, but are nonetheless worthy of the list due to special circumstances. Like this!

15 Stone: Custom Ford F150

Professional wrestler and actor, Man of the Century title holder and popular icon Dwayne Johnson seems to have it all. To give you a little background, he played college football and then turned to wrestling; his father and grandfather were also wrestlers. Although he wrestled regularly from 1995 to 2005 and then sporadically, his popularity allowed him to branch out into acting.

Fast forward to 2017. Rock owns various cars but uses a custom Ford F150 on a daily basis as he jokes that he can't fit in his Ferrari or Lamborghini as he is 6'5". Even without customization, the Ford F150 is by no means small. However, it did have a few modifications to the truck, namely a lift kit, a 5-inch dual exhaust system, tinted windows, a matte black grille, and an upgraded audio system.

14 Randy Orton: Hammer 2

Born to a professional wrestler father and grandfather, Randy Orton knows his moves very well. He was coached by Dave Finlay and his father Bob Orton Jr. Learning from the greats, he became the world champion 13 times. Although he started wrestling for the Mid-Missouri Wrestling Association - Southern Illinois Wrestling Conference, within a month he was mainstream.

wrestler car? Hammer 2 Oak. While General Motors stopped production of the Hummer in 2010 due to falling sales, Hummer vehicles continue to scream their manliness. I mean look at this. He's tall, wide, heavy and bulky - perfect for WWE Champion Randy Orton. While it would be difficult to keep it in a garage, it is the perfect vehicle for taking to the wrestling arena.

13 Ric Flair: 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS Coupe

We all know who Ric Flair is. In case you don't, let me tell you. The 68-year-old has been a professional wrestler for 40 years. He set every record and has as many titles and championships as your heart can count. On a more serious note, he is considered the greatest professional wrestler of all time, and in later life worked as a professional wrestling manager.

Flair isn't quite the typical car collector like some of the others on the list, but he likes American muscle cars. He owned a 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS coupe prior to the sale. The Camaro had a luxurious interior and an impressive exterior. Don't know why he needed to sell it but it was bought for $22,000.

12 Hulk Hogan: 1994 Dodge Viper

Hulk Hogan. If you don't know this name, you can still recognize his photo as he is the most famous wrestling star in the world. Hogan was not only one of the most successful wrestlers - as you can tell by his worldwide fame - but also a musician in his 20s. Hogan officially retired from wrestling in 2015.

He had a splendid car collection that, along with other properties and assets, became much smaller after his divorce in 2009. Although he lost $20 million in his divorce, he can cherish several of his favorite cars, including a 1994 Dodge Viper. It is red and yellow, which matches its main color. It also has the Hulkster logo on the hood. With a top speed of 165 mph, the car accelerates to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds.

11 Rock: Chevrolet Chevelle

While he may not be as comfortable in a Chevrolet Chevelle as he is in a spacious Ford F150, Rock still loves the Chevelle. As you guessed correctly from the description of the Ford F150, The Rock loves to collect cars. At least in those days, Rock regularly drove a Chevelle - he also often drove it to his premieres. Even more surprisingly, he drove this car in a couple of his own films. In these films, the Chevelle was simply modified to perform better on the road. The Chevrolet Chevelle was produced from 1964 to 1978, with a total of three generations. These were coupes, sedans, convertibles and station wagons. In hindsight, this is truly a classic car.

10 Bill Goldberg: 1968 Plymouth GTX convertible

It seems that many of these professional wrestlers have varied backgrounds. Goldberg played quarterback for the University of Georgia in college and was selected by the Los Angeles Rams in the 1990 NFL Draft. However, he was not a standout player, and after suffering a lower abdominal injury, he was unable to establish himself in the NFL. It was during his recovery that his WWE talent was discovered. Goldberg wrestled successfully from 1996 to 2010. From time to time he starred in several films.

Goldberg now owns over 25 vintage cars, a couple of which made this list. A 1968 Plymouth GTX was Goldberg's first muscle car, which he bought for $20,000. He has been restoring the car for the past five years and estimates that after a complete rebuild, the car will cost $100,000.

9 John Cena: AMC Hornet SC/1971 360

John Cena has been the face of WWE since 2000. Having earned countless awards, championship titles and trophies throughout his career, he has been hailed as a WWE Superstar by the likes of Kurt Angle and John Layfield. He is not only a professional wrestler, but also a rapper, actor and TV presenter. In addition, Cena enjoys collecting cars and has over 20 muscle cars in his collection. He loves the 1971 AMC Hornet SC/360 the most because it's exclusive. For him, it is not the price that matters, but the one-of-a-kind status. The creators of the Hornet are long gone, meaning that only a few Hornet SC/360s have been seen. Cena loves the fact that he can go to any car show and get a lot of attention because of this antique beauty.

8 Batista: Mercedes Benz SL500

Besides a penchant for luxury cars, the WWE superstar seems to love white cars; most of his cars are white, including the Mercedes Benz SL500. He was undoubtedly deeply in love with this car. The SL500, where "SL" stands for "Sport Lightweight", has been in production since 1954. The two-door car is available in coupe and convertible body styles. A car like the Mercedes Benz SL500 combines luxury, space and power. It's big enough to meet Batista's needs, but not big enough to outshine it. He bought the car for his wife initially, but has put a lot of effort and care into the car over the years. After the divorce, the wife got the car, which she intended to sell. Batista couldn't bear to see his sweat and blood go to someone else. So, he bought it from his ex-wife.

7 Rey Mysterio: custom truck Toyota Tundra

Here's another one of your favorite stars: Rey Mysterio. Translated from Spanish as "Royal Secret", Mysterio has been in the professional wrestling world since 1995. While being 5ft 6in doesn't seem all that intimidating, wait until he lets you try his 619in in the ring. He is known for defeating several larger opponents with his style.

He has a Toyota Tundra truck for everyday driving. The truck is gigantic and bulky, and with extra fog lights, modified headlights, and new front and rear bumpers made by WWE superstar Chuck Palumbo, it looks even more aggressive. However, the paint, bumper, and general appearance of the truck shock everyone around when Mysterio exits the truck.

6 Batista: BMW 745i

David Michael Batista Jr., also known as Batista, is a retired professional wrestler. The six-time world champion owns a record 282 days as world heavyweight champion. He also tried mixed martial arts in 2012. He has been performing intermittently since 2006, appearing in films such as The Man with the Iron Fists and Blade Runner 2049. wrestler Batista is now worth about $13 million. Although he owns a couple of cars, he clearly loves the 2003i 745 BMW and the other one listed here! Given his intimidating height, you might ask how he fits in a car. Ironically, he bought the car because "it was so roomy."

5 John Cena: 1970 Plymouth Superbird

via coolridesonline.net

An extreme upgraded version of the Plymouth Road Runner, the Plymouth Superbird is a classic muscle car. When it came out, engine options were available: 426 Hemi V8, 440 Super Commando V8, or 440 Super Commando Six-Barrel V8. Because it was designed for NASCAR racing, it featured some speed-enhancing designs such as an aero nose cone and a high-mounted rear wing to provide the desired speed. With 425 horsepower, it could hit 60 mph in 5.5 seconds, which is a respectable time considering it was built in the 1970s. Although the car struggled to succeed in the market at first, it grew in popularity over time. Depending on color and factory settings, a Plymouth Superbird in mint condition is currently valued at around $311,000. Cena is also a big fan of it.

4 Undertaker: Motorcycle

Commando is known for his various characters that he used during his wrestling career. With a connection to the supernatural, The Undertaker is just one of three professional wrestlers active since the 90s and he is the longest running wrestler in the ring. He has always been fascinated by horror themes and skimpy tactics that have cemented his reputation as Deadman.

Unlike some other stars, this living legend came to the arenas on his own motorcycles. In the 2000s, he wore bandanas and jeans, donned sunglasses, and rode his Harley-Davidsons and West Coast Choppers. He recently donated his latest motorcycle, The Ghost, to a veteran cause. Powered by a 126 cubic inch engine, it was his bike of choice - behind the deadly Undertaker is clearly a generous man who supports his community.

3 John Cena: InCENArator

One picture is worth a thousand words. Do I need to write more? I mean seriously though... just look at this. Built from a wrecked C7 R Corvette chassis, the car has been redesigned into a unique beast. The Parker brothers who built the car were ordered to make it look like the year 3000. And so they did. First you have to climb through the roof to get inside - there are no side doors. In addition to the opening glass roof, it also fires flames from all eight cylinders. Didn't know what the future was... Joking aside, the car's engine is the same old Corvette 5.5-liter V8. Cena loves to stay true to his words - he still loves American cars!

2 Stone Cold Steve Austin: Beer Truck

Whether it's the image of the "amazing" Steve Austin or the "stone cold" Steve Austin, he has thoroughly entertained millions of people. Like several others on this list, he also played American football. Although he officially retired in 2003 after a 14-year career, he continues to make occasional appearances in the arena as a referee and as a guest.

While I can't claim that Austin "rides" in a beer van, he once brought him to the arena with enough beer to quench the fury of The Rock, Vince, and Shane McMahon at the same time. In keeping with his beer-smashing, raucous and boisterous nature, he certainly entertained the public by defying corporations by hosing them down. (The image shows that he is on top of the truck, but he pulled up to the roundabout.)

1 Stone Cold: Zamboni

This list would be incomplete if we didn't mention yet another epic entry in Stone Cold. Just to give you a little backstory, he was stripped of the WWE Championship after Kane and The Undertaker caught him - an unfair tactic.

McMahon arrived at the championship ceremony accompanied by police officers. Out of nowhere, Stone Cold appeared on Zamboni, breaking the protective barriers and a couple of lights in the way. He jumped out of it and gave McMahon a good beating before the cops could restrain him and escort him out of the arena. Although the show was scripted, Zamboni was real. This, along with the beer truck drive-in, was one of the best drive-ins in WWE history.
