WWE couples have dominated the company for many years, with several current and former duos being seen as power couples throughout history.

One thing that cements a power couple's status is winning a championship at the same time as your spouse and then being able to dominate your respective divisions.

Over the years, there have been many couples who have been able to hold championships at the same time, and the following list looks at just five current couples who were able to achieve this feat.

The Miz and Maryse are now one of WWE's premier power couples since the Canadian superstar made her return to the company recently. The former Divas Champion is set to make history at The Royal Rumble when she takes on Beth Phoenix and Edge alongside her husband.

Beth and Maryse will be the first two women in history to have battled each other in three different decades when they collide next weekend.

Maryse originally left WWE in 2011 after a five-year tenure with the company where she became Divas Champion twice.

On this day in wrestling history October 5, The Miz defeated Kofi Kingston to become the new WWE United States Champion on Monday Night Raw in 2009.

Maryse was Divas Champion back in 2008 at the same time that her husband was holding the Tag Team Championships. She later won the title for a second time in February 2010. At the same time, The Miz was holding both the United States and Tag Team Championships.

The duo were not in a relationship at the time and didn't start their romance until a few years later, marrying in 2014. Maryse returned to the company in 2016 and has since been seen as a manager for her husband, allowing The Miz to become embroiled in several mixed feuds.

The couple have yet to win a championship of any kind together since Maryse's most recent return. However, they are now engaged in a bitter rivalry with Beth Phoenix and Edge. The couples are expected to clash at the upcoming Royal Rumble in a mixed tag team match.

#4. WWE couple Naomi and Jimmy Uso

Jimmy Uso and Naomi have been working together on WWE's main roster for several years. The duo were once cast members on Total Divas and questions have already been raised as to whether or not Naomi will join her husband in The Bloodline.

Before Roman Reigns ruled SmackDown, The Usos were holding their own in the Tag Team Division, whilst Naomi was SmackDown Women's Champion.

Jimmy and Jey captured the titles in March 2017, before Naomi was able to regain the SmackDown Women's Championship at WrestleMania, after being forced to forfeit the championship due to injury earlier in the year.

For a number of weeks, the duo were dominating the brand, before The Usos were dethroned by The New Day.

Naomi held her championship a few weeks longer until August 2017, when she dropped it to Natalya at SummerSlam.

Despite remaining a prominent member of the main roster in recent years, Naomi has gone more than four years without winning another championship in the company. The Usos on the other hand, are the reigning SmackDown Tag Team Champions and have held the titles on five separate occasions.

#3. Current WWE couple The Undertaker and Michelle McCool

The Undertaker retired from in-ring competition in WWE in 2020 when he decided that after three decades he was happy to finally walk away.

The Deadman signed a new 15-year deal ahead of his exit, which means that despite not appearing on-screen, he is still an employee of the company.

The Undertaker is a former seven-time world champion in his own right and married Michelle McCool in 2012. The couple worked together in WWE for several years before McCool left in 2011 and at that time they were able to hold titles at the same time.

Although Michelle and The Undertaker were never able to appear on screen together, the couple began dating in 2007, and in June 2009 Michelle McCool won the Women's Championship.

A few months later at Hell in a Cell, The Undertaker was able to win the World Heavyweight Championship, which allowed the two stars to hold titles together for the first time. The duo then went on to dominate their respective divisions for the rest of 2009.

Michelle McCool is set to return this weekend at the upcoming Royal Rumble premium live event.

#2. Current WWE couple Stephanie McMahon and Triple H

Triple H and Stephanie McMahon are the original WWE power couple and even though the duo are no longer on-screen, they are still working hard backstage.

Stephanie is the Chief Brand Officer in WWE, whilst her husband Triple H is the Chief Operating Officer, together they have been part of the company for almost three decades.

At the start of their careers, more than two decades ago, Stephanie and Triple H were able to hold titles at the same time. Stephanie lifted the Women's Championship for the first and only time in March 2000, a title that she held for five months.

Triple H won his third world championship from The Big Show on an episode of RAW in January 2000 and then went on to defend the title for several months. He lost it at Backlash to The Rock in April, meaning he and Stephanie held the championships around the same time for around two weeks.

Despite being authority figures in the company for decades, the couple haven't gone on to hold titles together again since and Stephanie still has only one Women's Championship reign to her name.

One of the best-known couples in WWE at present is Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch. The duo have spent most of their relationship in the spotlight over the past few years, including welcoming their daughter last year.

After the couple made their relationship public in 2019, WWE decided to use this as part of a storyline, when the couple were both champions. Rollins held the Universal Championship whilst Lynch held the RAW Women's Championship.

The couple kicked off the year by winning their respective Royal Rumble matches, before going on to win their titles at WrestleMania when Rollins overcame Brock Lesnar and Lynch made history in the main event.

Lynch held on to The Women's Championship until she was forced to relinquish the title when she found out she was expecting the couple's first child. Rollins, on the other hand, was defeated by The Fiend in Saudi Arabia in February 2020 but was able to lift the Tag Team Championships and the Universal Championship twice in the same time period.

Lynch currently holds the RAW Women's Championship and if the couple are both successful at The Royal Rumble then they will hold titles at the same time once again.
