Jim Ross, Christian, Dolph Ziggler and
more recently shared hotel horror stories from their careers. Here are the
highlights…
Jim Ross: “It’s ranged from turning the
sheets back and finding someone’s … deposit. Someone actually used the
restroom in the bed and then remade the bed. And it was … it wasn’t funny.
That was in [New] Jersey, I think. Then the other stuff is simple. I had a hotel
room in Manchester, England, that would have been too small for Hornswoggle. I
was hanging everywhere. They had a TV with a screen the size of my iPad. They
had a desk, that you could work at the desk, but the room was so small, the desk
didn’t have room for a chair. So you had to sit on the end of the bed to reach
over to your desk to do your work.”
Christian: “I
actually had one … It was in, I think, Biloxi, Miss., and the valet lost my
rental car. I’ll never forget that. I’m standing there and it’s just like, “Yeah
we can’t find it.” I’m like, “How do you lose a rental car?” Took about an hour
and a half, but they finally found it. I guess they misplaced it somewhere, but
it was pretty funny there for a few minutes.”
Dolph
Ziggler: “One time, Motel 6, but the lock had been busted off a bunch
of times and it looked like they just kind of painted over it, so the door would
just come right open and it was really cheap. Bad part of town, shady characters
outside the window — it’s ground-floor — doing who knows what. So I took the
chair from the desk and I propped it under the door and I pushed the bed to the
other side of the room and I slept sitting up with my clothes on, waiting for
the door to come unjammed.”
