There have been many releases in WWE over the past two years and wrapped in amongst these were several couples.
Whilst the likes of Karrion Kross and Scarlett and even Keith Lee and Mia Yim were allowed to work together during their time in NXT, both couples were then split when promoted.
Several other couples were not even given the chance to work with their spouse on TV and have now been released from the company as well.
The following list looks at just five former WWE couples who were not given the chance to work together during their time with the company.
#5. Former WWE Couple Franky Monet and John Morrison
Franky Monet was only signed by WWE earlier this year and was able to make an instant impact as part of the NXT Women's Division.
It was well-known that her husband is John Morrison since the couple worked together in several promotions before making their way to WWE.
Morrison worked on the company's main roster after he returned in 2020 and his wife was exclusively seen as a talent in NXT. Despite Monet having proved her ability as part of many other companies before signing with WWE, she wasn't given the chance to move to the main roster and work alongside her husband.
Surprisingly, after less than a year with WWE, Monet was released from the company earlier this month after just a handful of matches in NXT. Her partner John Morrison then followed her out the door just two weeks later as part of the most recent talent cull.
Morrison was in the middle of a storyline with his real-life best friend The Miz when he was released. The storyline was postponed when The Miz began working on Dancing With The Stars, but his recent elimination meant that WWE could have picked this back up.
The duo have now joined a long list of couples who have been released from the company this year alongside Mia Yim, Keith Lee, and even Karrion Kross and Scarlett Bordeaux.
#4. Former WWE Couple Zack Ryder and Chelsea Green
Zack Ryder was part of WWE for more than a decade ahead of his release back in 2020.
Ryder's fiancee Chelsea Green was signed by the company in 2018 and then worked her way up through the ranks starting in NXT. Green and Ryder were together throughout their time in WWE and the former IMPACT Wrestling star was even promoted to SmackDown in 2020, before suffering a wrist injury on her debut.
Things seemingly failed to work out for the couple since Ryder was released from WWE in April before Green made her main roster debut in November. The former NXT Superstar had been sidelined with several injuries throughout her career before WWE made the decision to cut her exactly a year after her husband.
Interestingly, Green was then released from the company earlier this year and the couple have been able to make the move over to IMPACT. Currently, under the ring names Matt Cardona and Chelsea Green, the couple are finally being given the opportunity to work together.
#3. Charlotte and Andrade were unable to work together on WWE TV
Throughout his time in WWE, Andrade was aligned with fellow superstar Zelina Vega. In reality, the former United States Champion was in a relationship with Charlotte for much of his WWE career. But the couple was never given the chance to work together.
Instead, Vega was seen as Andrade's business associate in NXT and on the main roster. The duo went their separate ways just months before he requested his release.
It was noted several times that Andrade and Charlotte had pitched the idea of working together on WWE TV. But The Queen was one of the company's biggest stars so this wasn't seen as an option.
Andrade requested his release from WWE earlier this year and it was granted in March. He has since gone on to join All Elite Wrestling. Given Charlotte's recent issues backstage in the company, there have been rumors that the current Women's Champion could be open to joining her partner in the near future.
#2. Former WWE Couple Peyton Royce and Tye Dillinger
Peyton Royce and Tye Dillinger met during their time in NXT and were then able to keep their relationship a secret from the WWE Universe for several years. The couple finally went public after two years of dating.
An underwhelming run on the main roster would cause Dillinger to request his release from WWE. The former star has since moved on to a career in AEW where he is known under his real name, Shawn Spears.
Royce and Dillinger only had a short run on the main roster at the same time and were not given the opportunity to work together in that time.
Peyton Royce had a decent run in WWE alongside Billie Kay. The two women reached the height of their careers when they were able to win the Women's Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania, but just two years later the two women were on the list of releases.
Kay and Royce have remained together since their WWE departure and are currently Tag Team Champions in IMPACT Wrestling.
#1. Former WWE Superstar Sarah Logan and Erik
Sarah Logan and Erik were part of NXT and WWE's main roster together for a number of years but were never given the chance to work together.
Despite the commentary team hinting that they were a couple throughout their respective matches and Logan even debuting a similar gimmick to The Viking Raiders after The Riott Squad split, it wasn't to be.
Logan was the only female main roster superstar released from the company as part of the April 15th budget cuts last year. The former star has since gone on to welcome the couple's first child.
Erik remains part of WWE on their SmackDown brand following the recent draft. Whilst Logan has made it clear that she's open to returning to the business following the birth of her first child, it's unclear if she will be looking to return to WWE alongside her husband.
Ruby Riott is now known as Ruby Soho in AEW so Logan could decide to join her former teammate at All Elite instead.
