Well, you know, WWE ain’t just about what ya see in the ring. There’s a whole lotta stuff goin’ on behind the scenes too. Now, folks might think it’s all glam and glitter, but lemme tell ya, it’s a whole different world back there. Lots of hustle, bustle, and work that ya wouldn’t expect. So today, I’m gonna tell ya a little bit about the backstage business in WWE. I reckon you’ll be surprised at what happens behind them curtains.
First off, let me tell ya about how things got all started. Back in the day, when the shows were still young, the backstage was just a few people makin’ sure everything ran smooth. But as WWE got bigger, so did the backstage crew. It ain’t just about the wrestlers anymore. You got producers, coordinators, directors, and a whole lot of folks makin’ sure everything goes off without a hitch. Now, don’t get me wrong, the wrestlers still do their thing, but there’s a lotta folks helpin’ them along the way.
Ya see, once a wrestler steps off the ring, they ain’t done yet. There’s interviews to do, promos to record, and sometimes even a bit of extra training to keep ‘em sharp. Some of them might go straight to the gym to work on their muscles, while others head to the backstage area to meet with the producers. It’s all about makin’ sure they’re ready for whatever’s next in that big ol’ ring.
Now, there’s one fella you might’ve heard of—Gorilla Monsoon. He was a big name in WWE back in the day. After he stepped down from bein’ president, he spent most of his time back there in the backstage area, makin’ sure everything ran right. He was like the glue that held everything together. Without him, things might’ve fallen apart, I reckon. He wasn’t in the ring no more, but he still made a big impact.

And let’s not forget about the people who take care of all the technical stuff. Lights, sound, cameras—they all gotta be in the right place at the right time. It ain’t easy work, I tell ya. It’s a whole team effort to get that show lookin’ good on TV. Sometimes, it’s so busy back there that ya wouldn’t believe it. All them folks movin’ around, checkin’ cables, makin’ sure the cameras are pointed the right way—it’s like a big ol’ beehive!
Another important part of WWE backstage is the creative team. They’re the ones who come up with the stories, the feuds, and the big moments. Now, some folks think that wrestling is all about the physical stuff, but a lotta it’s about the story they tell. The fans, they love the drama! They want to see good guys fight bad guys, and they want surprises along the way. So, the creative folks make sure the wrestlers got their lines and roles to play. They work with the wrestlers to help ‘em get their character just right. It’s all about gettin’ the audience to cheer and boo, ya see?
But it ain’t just the big names and the wrestlers that make WWE run. There’s a lotta other folks, like the stagehands, makeup artists, costume designers, and even the folks who take care of the snacks! Yup, you heard me right—those backstage crew members who make sure everyone’s got a little somethin’ to munch on while they work. It’s a team effort, plain and simple. Ya gotta have all them folks workin’ together to make the show a success.
Now, behind all the glitz and glamour, there’s a lotta hard work that goes into makin’ WWE what it is today. Folks might watch the show and see all the flashy moves, but they don’t see the hours of prep that go into it. From the wrestlers trainin’ to the creative team puttin’ together the next big storyline, it’s a lotta work. And when that big show airs on TV, it’s a whole team of folks who’ve made it happen. Ain’t no one person can do it alone!
So, next time you’re watchin’ WWE, just remember, there’s a whole lotta folks workin’ behind the scenes to make it all happen. It’s not just the wrestlers—it’s the whole crew back there that makes sure the show goes on. They work hard, and they deserve a lotta credit. So, keep an eye on the ring, but don’t forget about what’s goin’ on backstage too. It’s a lot more than meets the eye, I can tell ya that much!
