10 Real Life Wrestling Couples From Past And Present

Last Updated on March 29, 2024 by Avik Das

WWE or professional wrestling is a hectic job with a busy lifestyle, especially if you are a WWE Superstar. Since WWE wrestlers stay on the road for the majority of their careers, they hardly get time to socialize outside WWE. It is a profession that has no holiday, even in a big festival like Christmas.

WWE runs shows throughout the year without any break. As a result, RAW is the longest-running TV show in history. The same applies to SmackDown, which has been running since its inception back in 1999. Besides the weekly show, WWE Superstars also compete in live shows. The company not only travels in different states of the United States but also holds live shows worldwide. As wrestlers get little time to meet people outside the business, wrestlers often start dating each other. Whether it’s today or in the past, many wrestlers have dated each other and even gotten married. Currently, many Superstars are wrestling couples in real life. Similarly, several former male WWE Superstars dated or tied knots with female wrestlers in the past. We take a look at some best real-life couples from the past and present.
