WWE is predominantly known and preferred for its in-ring aspect of professional wrestling, which involves talented stars such as AJ Styles and Seth Rollins battling it out in the squared-circle to entertain the masses.
The company is also noted for its unique style of entertainment which is implemented in storylines and angles that play out on TV. A lot of it is influenced by real-life occurrences such as romantic relationships which usually lead to a wedding ceremony taking place in the ring.
These ceremonies almost never end without some form of chaos erupting between the couple and a third party, usually played by a babyface, who shows up to crash the wedding before it's finalized.
While many on-screen relationships were initially formed for storyline purposes, some transcended reality by becoming legitimate. There are also cases where actual couples got paired or acknowledged on TV due to the status of their relationship being publicly known.
Here are five real-life WWE couples who were also together on-screen.
#5 Former WWE Champion The Miz and Maryse
Former two-time WWE Champion The Miz and his wife Maryse refer to themselves as the "It Couple" due to their unbreakable bond and strong presence in the entertainment industry. Not only were they both champions in the largest wrestling company in the world, but they also star in their own reality tv show, Miz & Mrs.
The two stars did an awesome job of portraying heels in a convincing manner and it suited their characters perfectly. The Miz and Maryse have been married since 2014 and have two lovely daughters. While Maryse spent the majority of her second tenure in WWE managing her husband, she also competed in several bouts in the company.
Her most notable match took place at WrestleMania 33 where she teamed up with The Miz to take on the team of John Cena and Nikki Bella, who were also a couple at the time, in a losing effort. The It Couple have incredible chemistry and their on-screen pairing works very well.
#4 WWE Superstars Jimmy Uso and Naomi
Jimmy Uso and Naomi met in 2013 during their time at the WWE Performance Center and began dating before taking their vows in 2014. Their relationship has been showcased on Total Divas since Naomi was a featured star on the show.
The couple have worked alongside each other a handful of times in the ring. They competed in the WWE Mixed Match Challenge as partners for two seasons and in several other matches on SmackDown. Jimmy Uso was even involved in Naomi and Mandy Rose's feud in 2019 which saw the latter trying to ruin the couple's marriage.
Naomi is a former two-time SmackDown Women's Champion in WWE and the 2018 WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal winner. She is currently assigned to the RAW brand while her husband Jimmy Uso is a part of SmackDown.
He has also attained success during his time in the company, winning the WWE Tag Team Championship twice and SmackDown Tag Team Championship four times together with his twin brother Jey Uso. The Usos are considered by many fans to be one of the best tag teams in modern wrestling.
#3 WWE COO Triple H and Stephanie McMahon
Triple H and Stephanie McMahon are WWE's most valuable couple who serve as on-screen and off-screen authority figures in the company. They had a storyline wedding in 1999 before legitimately tying the knot in 2003.
Their relationship led to the formation of the McMahon-Helmsley Regime during the 90s, which carried WWE for over a year. Triple H and Stephanie have shared the ring together as partners and opponents.
In March 2002, they battled each other for the WWE Undisputed Championship in a triple threat match on Monday Night RAW involving Chris Jericho. The Game won the bout by delivering a vicious spinebuster to his wife to retain the title.
At WrestleMania 34, they teamed up to take on the debuting Ronda Rousey and WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle in a mixed tag team match. The contest exceeded expectations and was widely praised by many fans and critics.
The Cerebral Assassin and the Billion Dollar Princess portray incredible villains on TV and they always receive the desired reaction from fans.
#2 WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella and John Cena
Nikki Bella and John Cena were among WWE's most popular couples during their time together. Their relationship was featured on Total Divas and more heavily on the spin-off show Total Bellas, which mainly focused on the 2020 WWE Hall of Fame inductees, the Bella Twins, and their significant other.
The 16-time WWE world champion and Nikki Bella were together for six years before going their separate ways in 2018. Prior to their separation, they had competed in several matches as partners.
Their final match as a team came at WrestleMania 34 where they defeated The Miz and Maryse. Following the win, John Cena shocked the world by proposing to Nikki Bella in the middle of the ring, which she accepted.
The announcement of their break-up was even more shocking, with many fans wondering whether it was real or a work. We later got the answer, as the two stars got into a relationship with other people. Nikki Bella became a mother to a wonderful boy whilst John Cena got married in 2020 last year.
#1 WWE Superstars Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch
WWE power couple Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch were paired together on-screen during a significant portion of their careers. Both stars were the main champions of their respective divisions following their career-defining triumph at WrestleMania 35.
At the event, Seth Rollins defeated 'The Beast' Brock Lesnar in the opening match to capture his first Universal Championship while The Man made history by winning both the Raw and SmackDown Women's Title in the main event of the show.
She also made history by becoming one of the three first women to headline the Show of Shows. After their relationship was made public, WWE thought it would be a good idea to pair both of them together, but it ended up being underwhelming.
They teamed up to take on Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans in a mixed tag team match in the main event of WWE Extreme Rules 2019 with their titles on the line before embarking on their own paths.
The couple have a daughter together named Roux and they recently got married after being engaged for nearly two years.
