WWE.com released an article that asked several WWE stars what their biggest phobias are as a way to promote the upcoming ‘No Mercy’ Pay-Per-View. Here are some WWE stars and their biggest fears.
Jeff Hardy isn’t afraid of heights, but he is afraid of snakes:
“I have a fear of snakes. They are all around by my house. When I’m weeding the pond, I see water moccasins all the time. It freaks me out a bit, but I’m starting to overcome it with the help of my 6-year-old daughter. She loves them!”
Sasha Banks’ fear is failing and scary movies:
“Actually, my No. 1 fear is a fear of failing. It scares me big time. It gives me anxiety and makes me stay up at night. But I also have a fear of watching scaring movies at night. If it’s pitch black out and I’m watching a scary movie, I will look out the window and think the bad guy is out there. I also hate the feeling, specifically the texture, of velvet. It gives me severe chills.”
Renee Young has a few:
“I am scared of ghosts, and snakes freak me out, as well as anything that touches me under water. In addition, I have a huge phobia when it comes to extreme heights. I didn’t realize this until I was hiking Angels Landing in Zion, Utah. The path narrows up there, and then it is this straight drop down to your impending death. I completely froze and couldn’t finish the hike.”
Easily the most interesting was Heath Slater. He says that he is afraid of being in front of big crowds, something he has to do on a nightly basis with WWE:
“Ironically, I have a real phobia about being in front of a big audience. You know, I’m always in front of a huge crowd in WWE, and I play it cool, but inside I am terrified as hell. I’m staring the devil in his eyes or something.”
