they spend upto 300 days a year on the road, most of the time is spent either training or performing or flying. For example they did a tour a few months back that had them aroudn europe in about 2 weeks with shows most nights. A lot of people have got injured lately from the schedule, as they're lower on numbers of recognised people due to guys like the rock, stone cold etc not being around now. It makes it hard for them to have 'normal' lives and they're usually trying to earn enough money for a lifetime in a short time, plus one injury & they may never work again. Relationships aren't the best either, most of them fail, so they feel lonely. they do work hard to put on a show for people, but it has many downsides. those from the 80s and early 90s are notorious for coke & weed, i dunno about the newer ones.
