Top female wrestler exposes the brutal reality behind questionable backstage segment
Saraya shares spine-chilling backstage incident: Image via X WWE is way beyond lights, gimmicks, and fun. It's creepy and dark on the other side. Especially when it comes to the female wrestler, it's even darker than a lone stormy night. To sketch that full picture, you need to go back to the infamous Vince McMahon era when writers witnessed the dark, shredded reality behind the screen. A few called it a 'kingdom ruled by fear'. But the former CEO was merely a reflection of the problem. He's not alone, after all, in staging those creepy segments on and off screen, and then laughs it all off like a duck soup. But what Saraya reveals about her backstage experience in WWE breaks all the previous records of odds and slithers. Saraya calls out WWE authority figures for an offensive gesture backstage Wrestling products need some serious quality checkups to make women feel safer and secure, a bare minimum for a sports person to chisel out the best. Saraya, 32, dropped a bombshell as a reminder to fix this loophole as early as possible. During her recent appearance on the Rule Beakers podcast, the former NXT Champion revealed how she felt harassed backstage by a WWE authority figure. ''Like, it was at a wrestling show. And I went out to peek at the crowd, and you know, like most live events, it's just like pipe and drape, you know, so you can peep through,' ' said Saraya. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Why seniors are rushing to get this Internet box – here's why!

But yet the most disgusting thing is how he chose to justify it as a joke. '' Like, it was really dark. I went down the little hallway, and it was really dark. Really dark. And I peeped through, and then all of a sudden I feel someone's hand come over my mouth—no f**** way—and grab me and drag me into the dark. And I'm just like—and I just start freaking out and freaking out. And then he like lets me go, and there's like this light, and then he was like, 'It's just me. I'm just joking, you know ,'' Saraya didn't mence her words like always. ''I was like, That's not funny.'' However, the fearless diva is only loud, tantrumatic when she feels it's high time to speak up for the higher good.

The actor and WWE icon, who is retiring from wrestling in December this year, said he always prioritises his partner Shay Shariatzadeh. He told Extra: "My number one passion is my wife. Absolutely, that is first on the list. I'd say right behind that is my health so I can be the best husband to my wife." Despite his upcoming retirement, the "Heads of State" actor said that he will always be part of WWE in some capacity as long as they want him, reports "This is my final year in the WWE. I'm retiring this year. We're about halfway through, so I look forward to officially closing the book on in-ring competition. I will forever be an ambassador of the WWE.

The 48-year-old star is stepping away from life as a professional wrestler knowing that his Hollywood career has hit new heights, but he doesn't take it for granted. He said: "I know how hard it is to get any sort of role. I saw some footage today, which was one of my first roles as a background actor and man, it really warmed my heart. I don't carry any guilt or shame when I see that, because I got to be on screen, I got to learn a little bit about the business. "It allowed me to reflect on how far I've come, so, gosh, I just want to make the most of the chances that people take on me." In "Head Of State", Cena will be seen sharing screen space with Indian actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Hollywood star Idris Elba .
