WWE: Top 10 Wrestlers Cheat Meals

As Wrestlemania 41 approaches, I thought it would be fun to mix in some tastes as well. My family and I have been throwing wrestling parties since my dad started it at Wrestlemania One. Since then, I have always had themes for my parties and even named some of the dishes after wrestlers in the process. So here’s a list of some of the most popular meals that are regularly eaten by today’s superstars.

Roman Reigns, Lobster:

When Roman Reigns wants to stick to his diet but indulge in something tasty, he orders Lobster. You shouldn’t do this for a wrestling party due to how expensive Lobster is, but I can’t deny that if you’re going to cheat on a diet, this is the way to go.

Shawn Michaels, Burgers:

I can definitely relate with Shawn Micheals on this American delicacy. Being a huge fan of Rock Burger in Niagara Falls, I constantly cheat on my own diet, as a fighter, for a big fat, greasy burger with extra bacon. Then again if you saw what Rock Burger has on the menu, you would understand why this is also my cheat as well. 

Seth Rollins, Bone-in Rib Eye:

Seth Rollins loves a great Bone-in-Ribeye, but when you serve it with carbs, he’s in heaven. Being a fitness guru, Rollins constantly needs energy like this to perform at his level and this is his go-to meal to do it. I mean, who doesn’t like a big ole juicy medium well steak? 

John Cena, Lamb Skewers:

One of John Cena’s favorite foods is skewers, especially if they’re Lamb. Cena also loves to pair many of his meals with popcorn chicken, which I’ll jump on board with myself. Just make sure you have the Ranch, Barbecue, and Blue Cheese on the side with veggies. Now that’s my jam. 

“The Rock” Dwayne Johnson, Pizza:

Dwayne Johnson had his hands full with the TKO group and his ongoing story with Cody Rhodes. When his hands aren’t full of all of that stuff they’re usually holding a slice of pizza. The Final Boss loves pizza, and this has been one of his guilty pleasures since he was a kid. After 25 years in the pizza business, I think most Americans would agree. 

Cody Rhodes, White Rice with Grilled Chicken:

Cody likes to keep it simple when he eats and constantly has a side of chicken with most of his meals. One of Cody’s favorite meals is white rice served with grilled chicken with a side of Thai peanut sauce. I won’t lie that I wouldn’t mind a bowl of that right now and I even had this same dish before my fight last week. 

The Undertaker, Crawfish Boils:

This meal doesn’t surprise me, and why I had to include it on this list. From sausage to shrimp and other tasty tidbits, the Undertaker loves Crawfish boils which he’ll occasionally add steak to as well. I can’t deny that I wouldn’t go to town on this as well and I know a lot of you would join me as well.

C.M. Punk, Doughnuts and Muffins:

It’s hard-pressed to actually gauge C.M. Punk when it comes to food. He despises a lot of fruits and constantly talks down about them. One thing he doesn’t talk down about is doughnuts and muffins. He loves them, and even the C.M. in his name used to stand for Cookie Monster, giving us all confirmation that Punk is just like the rest of us.

Jey Uso, Samoan Cuisine:

Jey Uso is a big believer in tradition and loves his culture’s foods. From Pua’s pork to chicken and rice, Jey and his brother Jimmy stick to their guns when it comes to cheat meals. I will second that as well because one of my favorite meals is chicken and rice as well.

Hulk Hogan, Eggs and Yogurt:

Hulk Hogan had always been as big as a bus his entire life, and the key to that is his love for eggs. This reminds me of that song from The Land Before Time, part two, in which the antagonists sing a song about eggs. Memories aside, Hogan has been known to eat a dozen eggs every day and loves mixing in grains with his yogurt. As a point fighter, I need speed over size so these same foods work well for me and will for you if you can add these cheats to your diet.
