There’s an old adage that says “a picture is worth a thousand words.” This has never been truer than when looking at the Instagram accounts of WWE Superstars and Divas. From a shot of Lana letting her hair down on the beach to The Rock posing for a photo with a fan whose truck he just hit, you can learn a lot about your favorite Superstars and Divas from their Instagram accounts.
WWE’s in-ring competitors are using the photo and video social media site now more than ever, giving WWE fans a candid look at the person behind the Superstar or Diva. So whose selfie game is strongest? Find out in this list of the 10 best WWE Instagram accounts.
#10 Triple H — @tripleh
Forget the typical executive social media account, because Triple H isn’t the typical executive. WWE’s COO takes you behind the scenes of his day-to-day duties, from magazine photoshoots with his wife, Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon, to candid shots of The Game backstage at WWE TV shows and NXT on his Instagram.
He posts pictures with celebrities like Kevin Hart, future stars like Kevin Owens and longtime wrestling buddies like Kevin Nash. Plus, he takes you inside his intense workout and his equally insane three-day diet.
If you want a true, exclusive look at the inner workings of WWE from a lifelong fan turned competitor turned executive, you need to follow The Game. — HRISHI DERE
#9 Eva Marie — @natalieevamarie
Yes, Eva Marie’s Instagram is more than worth a follow if you’re solely looking to scope selfies of the redheaded bombshell. But if you’ve ever wanted to see what it takes to become a WWE Diva from the ground up, Eva’s Instagram is also the place to look.
In addition to modeling photos, workout shots and selfies, Eva Marie has been posting video updates of her road back to the squared circle, 15 seconds at a time. Her journey started in California under the tutelage of The Brian Kendrick and has continued at the WWE Performance Center in recent weeks. For a true behind-the-curtain look at the life of a WWE Diva, there are few better follows than Eva Marie’s Instagram. — HRISHI DERE
#8 Seth Rollins — @wwerollins
It’s fitting that the most liked picture (54.8k) on Seth Rollins’ Instagram account is a shot of him from WrestleMania 31 holding his freshly won WWE World Heavyweight Championship high in the air. After all, The Architect’s account is a shrine to the hard work and dedication he put in to reach that point. Whether he’s racking up the miles on the road or putting in work at a CrossFit gym (which he does — a lot), Rollins’ Instagram account may not make you like the sniveling Superstar, but you’ll have a hard time not respecting him. — HRISHI DERE
#7 Natalya — @natbynature
Every week, WWE.com cherry-picks the best shots from WWE Instagram accounts and every week, Natalya has a substantial presence. The Hart Dungeon Diva’s photos can easily be divided into five categories: stunning selfies, fan photos, candid photos with Superstars and Divas, photos of her cats and stunning selfies. Yes, I know I mentioned The Queen of Harts majestically beautiful selfies twice but her husband, Tyson Kidd, is on the mend so I feel safe enough to do so, especially with 1,200 miles between us. — HRISHI DERE
#6 Xavier Woods — @xavierwoodsphd
Think you got geek cred? Do you? Do you really? You might want to size yourself up against @xavierwoodsphd on Instagram. The former WWE Tag Team Champion’s IG is a treasure trove of nerd nirvana the likes of which would make the most ardent Comic-Conner hang up their homemade Batsuit. From palling around with William Shatner himself to spreading the word of his new YouTube gaming channel, UpUpDownDown, Dr. Woods’ Instagram is a vibrant, friendly reminder that sometimes the geeks really do have all the fun. And as for the number of followers? All you need to know is that it’s over 9,000. — HRISHI DERE
#5 Lana — @thelanawwe
“I am super woman.”
The four words greeting visitors to Lana’s Instagram page also serve as the de facto mission statement for exactly what she’s trying to capture with all those photos. A lesser person wouldn’t have so many experiences to sustain one of the most popular Instagram accounts in the WWE Universe. They would have given up long ago.
Instead, Lana’s candidness and social-media savvy tell a ravishing story of an Eastern European expat transforming herself into a 21st-century cosmopolitan Diva. Followers witness her globetrotting exploits, her certified star power and, most recently, her glorious emancipation from the overbearing Rusev.
With every new Instagram post, Lana reaffirms that she’s still going strong. A super statement, indeed. — HRISHI DERE
#4 The Rock — @therock
Scroll through Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Instagram feed and you will get a peek into the life of, quite possibly, the coolest person on the planet. With photos and videos of fast cars, fancy jets and beautiful women, The Great One’s Instagram account looks like it’s being managed by “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair himself. Between the blockbuster movies, ridiculously intense workouts, epic squared-circle appearances with WWE, a Guinness World Record number of selfies and everything in between, The Most Electrifying Man in All of Entertainment should also be called The Most Entertaining Man on All of Instagram. — HRISHI DERE
#3 Nikki Bella — @thenikkibella
If you want to see more of WWE beauty Nikki Bella (and who doesn’t?), you’re going to want to check out her Instagram account. The Divas Champion posts photos of everything from candid moments to inspirational quotes. Ever wonder how the “Total Divas” star keeps herself in such great shape? Take a look at her Instagram feed and you will see that she trains harder than most WWE Superstars. You will also get a peek at some of Nikki’s favorite things, from her family to her fans. Fearless Nikki’s Instagram account is a must-follow for anyone who likes to work hard and play hard. — HRISHI DERE
#2 Dolph Ziggler — @heelziggler
Curly mop. Slick ponytail. Surfer shaggy. Keeping track of Dolph Ziggler’s hairstyles on Instagram is like keeping track of raptors in “Jurassic World.” They just keep coming! And that’s a good thing. After all, the memorable ’dos and irreverent fashion sense make following Dolph’s Instagram account a ride of unpredictable fun. Toss in screengrabs of classic ’80s comedies (“Fletch,” “Naked Gun” and “Revenge of the Nerds,” among others), seasoned with a healthy dose of "Simpsons" references, and garnish with a smattering of Dolph’s hilarious thoughts and observations, and you’ve got a recipe for Instagram’s guiltiest pleasure, compliments of The Showoff himself. — HRISHI DERE
#1 Paige — @realpaigewwe
This is her house! No, literally — go to Paige’s Instagram account and there you will find her house. Paige on Instagram is awesome for an assortment of reasons. You want shots of her and the “Total Divas” cast in exotic locations? Paige’s Instagram is your hookup. You have a yearning to see The Diva of Tomorrow in a variety of hats? @realpaigewwe is your one-stop shop. You need a morphenomenal photo of her kicking the original Green Power Ranger in the crotch? The Anti-Diva has made this happen.
Thought another Superstar or Diva was the best Instagrammer in the WWE Universe? Think again. — HRISHI DERE
