Probably their travel schedule differs a lot from any other sport in the world simply because of the peculiar nature of the sport itself.
People who are aware of the schedule may wonder how the top wrestlers can adjust to it. Well, WWE star John Cena once had a very sporty answer for all of them.

With keeping this approach intact, the incredible man is still on his way to creating magic in the ring. However, we may not see him in the ring more than a few times. The reason for this is probably his Hollywood involvement and saving energy for big WWE events.
The dream life of WWE superstars is a myth
Though stars like John Cena didn’t demand any lighter travel schedule ever, it still takes a toll on many great wrestlers, including him. On average, the WWE superstars have to travel 3-4 nights a week in a different city each night. They also have to work on big festivals like Christmas day or anything of that sort. Throughout the pandemic period, the schedule got a bit lighter. However, it didn’t last long. They immediately got back to their old hectic schedule since live shows have allowed fans to be present. This is a potential reason for many big stars, like Brock Lesnar, opting for a part-time schedule. Cena himself also assumed a part-time role in 2016.
