What Are Your Favorite Wrestlers Up to Now?
Wrestling has been around for a long time. The WWE alone has been around for a whopping 70 years! It's no surprise that it's made a major mark on society and popular culture. With globally popular events like Wrestlemania, King of the Ring, and Royal Rumble, there has been an almost endless stream of new wrestlers.
Over the years, the public has been introduced to a variety of wrestlers, each more outrageous than the last. Some have basically become A-list celebrities and household names as they rocketed from nobody to a legend in the wrestling industry.
So, how are your favorites fairing? Maybe they’ve stepped away from the ring, or maybe they’re still going. Some have branched out into other forms of entertainment, while others stuck with the fitness field. Here’s a look at what the biggest WWE superstars are doing today.

- Paris Hilton not only lives in a mansion, she also built a doghouse mansion for her Chihuahua. It's 300 square feet and includes air conditioning and heating. It comes decked out with designer furniture, a chandelier, a pink paint job, second-floor balcony, and enclosed "yard." It's not enough for you to live in luxury. Your dog must, as well.
- Björk created a media sensation when she wore her iconic white swan dress to the 2001 Oscars. At the time, many derided it as hideous and a publicity stunt, but it has since gone down as one of the most memorable dresses of all time—even if it isn't exactly beloved. She says David Bowie was the inspiration behind the dress.
- When Rihanna debuted her famous red locks in 2010 (around the same time she was featured on Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie"), she started a red-hair trend. Over the next twelve months, she changed her hairstyle 13 times—more than once a month! But that came at a pricey cost. Sources say the annual price tag came out to $1,168,000 on just her hair.
- While attending the Grammys in February 2000, Jennifer Lopez stepped out in a green Versace dress that instantly became a phenomenon. The barely-there ensemble had a dramatically low cut that came below JLo’s belly button. It became such a talking point that it was Google’s most popular search query up to that point, and it spurred the company to include images into search results. It became the motivation for Google Images.
- In February 2020, Jeff Bezos bought the most expensive property in California: a $165 million mansion. It was designed for Jack Warner (the former president of Warner Bros. entertainment company). It took a decade to construct (spanning the 1930s and 40s). It comes complete with 9 acres of Beverly Hills land, a main house, a guest house, a tennis court, a golf course, and terraces.
