Triple H (real name: Paul Levesque) and Stephanie McMahon were married in 2003 and have since had three children together. The couple are the future of WWE and are set to take over the business when Vince McMahon decides to step down from his post. Levesque, whose understanding and passion for the business runs deep, already holds a significant amount of power within WWE and it will be interesting to see where the future of the business is heading with his and Stephanie’s vision at the forefront.

2. CM Punk and AJ Lee

CM Punk (real name: Phillip Brooks) and AJ Lee (real name: April Mendez) were married in June of 2014. This couple has been one of the hottest topics on the internet, as the love for Brooks and interest in his personal affairs still runs rampant since his abrupt departure from WWE in January of this year. Brooks was quite possibly the best wrestler to emerge from the current WWE product and his wife Mendez, who is the current WWE Divas Champion, can actual wrestle as well – something that is far too often overlooked when booking the Divas division.


3. John Cena and ikki BellaN

John Cena and Nikki Bella (real name: Nicole Garcia-Colace) are yet another couple who are featured on Total Divas. However, unlike her sister and Danielson who are socially aware and environmentally friendly, Nicole and Cena live a more lavish and high-profile lifestyle which includes and is not limited to; fancy cars, expensive jewelery, and multiple houses. Dating the biggest name in the industry today definitely has its perks, as well as drawbacks. Cena has often times ruled out the possibility of marriage and children as a result of past romantic failures and his hectic career schedule. Whether or not this relationship will last is yet to be seen, but for the time being the couple remains in tact.


4. Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella

Daniel Bryan (real name: Bryan Danielson) and Brie Bella (real name: Brianna Garcia-Colace) were married in April of 2014, just weeks prior to the crowning achievement of Danielson’s career when he won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in the main even of WrestleMania XXX. Garcia-Colace who is one of the main stars of Total Divas is heavily featured throughout the series as her marriage to Danielson is one of the focal points of the show. The reality show has recently depicted the couple as having financial problems, which seems entirely unrealistic considering Danielson’s status in WWE (even though he is currently recovering from injury). Garcia-Colace herself is a top Diva in the company. Therefore, one could assume that their “troubles” are simply produced drama.

5. The Undertaker and Michelle McCool

The Undertaker (real name: Mark Calaway) and Michelle McCool (real name: Michelle Leigh) were married in June 2010 at a ceremony in Houston, Texas. Leigh is the third wife of Calaway as he is also her second husband. It has certainly taken the pair time to find each other and despite a fifteen year age gap, the couple remain in wedded bliss. Leigh is seemingly finished with her wrestling career while the future for Calaway remains unclear, especially following his epic loss at WrestleMania. Should Calaway choose to never wrestle again, he is already set financially and will always be remembered as one of the best ever. This couple will be just fine without the wrestling business.

6. Brock Lesnar and Sable

Brock Lesnar and Sable (real name: Rena Greek) first met in 2004 shortly after Greek’s divorce from former WWE superstar, Marc Mero. The couple quickly got engaged only to call it off in early 2005 before getting engaged again in 2006 and eventually married. Greek who is ten years Lesnar’s senior has retired from professional wrestling while her husband is the current WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Both Lesnar and Greek serve as step-parents to children they have from previous marriages. The couple currently has two children of their own and reside quietly in Minnesota.

Edge (real name: Adam Copeland) and Beth Phoenix (real name: Elizabeth Kocianski) have both retired from professional wrestling. Copeland due to medical reasons and Kocianski for family reasons. Even though the couple have respectfully stepped away from the WWE limelight, they both managed to accomplish a great deal during their time there. Copeland is a member of the WWE Hall of Fame and a former eleven time World Champion. Kocianski is a former Divas Champion and former three time Women’s Champion (title now defunct). In December of 2013, the couple welcomed their first child into the world.

Shawn Michaels (real name: Michael Hickenbottom) and Whisper (real name: Rebecca Curci) were married in 1999 at the Graceland Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas, Nevada. Hickenbottom is of course one of the most well-known performers in professional wrestling as well as one of its single greatest talents. However, Curci is not a household name and her involvement in the wrestling industry is not of any major significance. However, she was in fact involved with wrestling for a short period of time. From 1997-1999 Curci was employed by World Championship Wrestling as one of “The Nitro Girls,” whose main focus was to entertain fans during the commercial breaks of Monday Nitro. Hickenbottom and Curci reside in Texas with their two children where they live a humble and spiritual life.


9. Matt Hardy and Reby Sky

 One of the most infamous relationships in professional wrestling was the pairing of Matt Hardy and Lita (real name; Amy Dumas) which ended in dramatic circumstance. However, Hardy moved past it all and is currently married to Reby Sky (real name: Rebecca Reyes), an independent female wrestler who Hardy helped trained. The couple have had their share of problems and in January of 2014 were arrested in Virginia following a domestic dispute. This prompted the pair to file restraining orders against each other but they have since reconciled. Hardy has seen some darkness when it comes to love and family (his brother Jeff has dealt with his own legal troubles). Nonetheless, fans of The Hardy Boyz wish them all well.

Natalya (real name: Natalie Neidhart) and Tyson Kidd (real name: Theodore Wilson) have known each other since they were kids. Wilson who was the final graduate of the legendary Hart Dungeon had befriended Teddy Hart and Harry Smith (grandsons of Stu Hart) at the age of ten, subsequently meeting Neidhart through his connection to the Hart family. The couple began dating in 2001 and were married in 2013. Their marriage was featured on the first season of the reality show Total Divas. Unfortunately for Wilson who is an established wrestler, he can be seen more on the E! Network than any major WWE programming.
