Wrestlers no one ever talks badly behind their backs – Pro wrestling isn’t usually the ideal place for good people. It’s dominated by jealousy and politics, and large egos. In simpler terms, it’s a very cutthroat industry. Because of that, you’re far more likely to hear wrestlers talk ‘dirt’ about their co-workers than you are to hear good things.

It’s not hard to see why; wrestling ‘dirtsheets’ have existed for decades and have become a staple of the die-hard pro wrestling fan. Many people enjoy hearing about how one supposedly-great wrestler is actually a jerk in real life, or how two great teammates actually hated working with one another. It’s this negative aspect of the pro wrestling business that fuels speculation and curiosity, which in turn helps the business survive. It also distorts the reality of pro wrestling, bringing the image of ego-maniacal pre-madonnas to the forefront of wrestling fandom.
Then there are the exceptions.
Hidden among the countless big egos and backstage politicians are the genuinely nice people that everyone says nice things about. These are the wrestlers that are incredibly well-liked by their peers and their fans, to the point where any criticism or complaint against them is swiftly denounced by those same fans and wrestlers.
These are ten wrestlers about whom you never hear anyone say anything bad about. Not even the most bitter, angry or venomous shoot interview contains anything negative about these wrestlers, which speaks volumes of the kinds of persons they really are.
10. ‘Diamond’ Dallas Page
DDP’s whole ‘motivational speaker’ gimmick was so convincing because it’s how the real Dallas Page behaves in real life. He is, by nature, a highly positive person, and that translates into how he interacts with his fellow wrestlers and fans. Many of his colleagues have spoken of his tremendous skill and positive demeanor in spite of his age, and his commitment to the well-being of others.
Seriously, what other wrestler could debut at such an old age and still achieve such success? Moreover, who else could stay so positive through so many difficult experiences, and turn a passion for yoga into a means to save his colleagues? That’s what makes DDP’s ‘Diamond’ nickname so appropriate; he’s one of the few people in the wrestling business who managed to stay positive and give back to the fans that made him famous.
