10 Wrestlers Currently In The Best Shape Of Their Lives
Looking good!
It's generally accepted, aside from a few notable exceptions, that wrestlers nowadays are in peak physical condition.
In order to compete with the consistency that they do, at the level that they do, the roster needs to ensure their bodies are prepared for the rigours of a wrestling career.
The minimum physical requirement of a WWE superstar is at a level many of us will never reach in our lifetimes, and yet to get noticed and pushed by you-know-who, wrestlers need to supersede that base level by some margin.
Some manage to achieve it via a change in diet or workout regime, but generally it just comes down to good old fashioned hard work.
Honourable mentions must go to former WWE wrestlers like Al Snow, Gene Snitsky, and Vladimir Kozlov, who have transformed themselves since leaving the company.
Plus, it's worth noting that Brie Bella and Maryse are competing regularly, looking phenomenal and even performing at the recent Hell in a Cell pay-per-view despite both giving birth in the last year or so.
Nevertheless, they don't make the list, which is appropriately stacked, of the ten wrestlers in the best shape of their lives...
10. Jinder Mahal
An obvious place to start, but it's fair to say that Jinder Mahal's transformation from jobber to the stars and worst member of 3MB, into WWE Champion may have had something to do with the fact that seemingly in the space of a month he piled on the muscle and got so veiny he looked like a human road map.
Mahal was never in terrible shape, but his change in physique from generic mid-card body to dominating main eventer coincided with a push that exemplified what you need to do to be successful in Vince McMahon's WWE.
The Modern Day Maharaja attributes his metamorphosis down to diet and consistency. There was much speculation on how he achieved such spectacular results in such a brief period of time, but according to him it's due to giving up alcohol and eating loads of chicken & broccoli. He told Sportskeeda:-
"Overall, from diet to exercise, I’m seeing good results. I’m going to keep getting in better shape because not only do I look better but I feel better.”
