Under The Radar: 5 Little-known WWE couples
Total Divas has introduced WWE fans to many of the couples on the main roster over the past seven years. But, whilst the likes of Carmella, Corey Graves, Ronda Rousey, and Travis Browne have been introduced to the WWE Universe as part of the most recent season of the show, there are other couples who are yet to be featured on the show.
Those who can't appear on Total Divas like Candice LeRae, Johnny Gargano and Maria and Mike Kanellis have all instead been partnered on WWE TV, which has made it clear that they are a couple both on and off-screen.
Whilst there are couples that WWE allows to be on-screen couples like Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch or Lana and Rusev, there are some who are not as lucky, which means that many of the WWE Universe may not be aware of these couples until now.
#5 Montez Ford and Bianca Belair
Montez Ford was recently promoted to the main roster alongside Angelo Dawkins since The Street Profits have now become popular members of the Monday Night Raw locker room. Ford was working alongside his wife Bianca Belair for a number of months when they were both part of NXT and WWE even gave them time off to get married and go on their honeymoon back in the summer of 2018 despite both being part of storylines at the time.
Ford and Belair are two of the fastest rising stars in the company, but they have never been given the chance to work together on WWE TV or share their relationship on Total Divas which means the couple is still somewhat unknown.

#4 Sarah Logan and Erik (Raymond Rowe)
Sarah Logan and Raymond Rowe have been dating ever since they met whilst working on the Independent Circuit. Rowe and Logan were then signed to WWE at separate times, which means that Logan was on the main roster whilst the War Raiders were still in NXT.
War Raiders have since been promoted to the main roster and undergone a name change, which means that Sarah Logan and her husband Raymond Rowe, who's also known as Erik in The Viking Raiders are now on the same brand.
The couple hasn't been able to work together on WWE TV just yet, but they were part of a Ride Along episode that also included Ivor, who is Erik's tag team partner.
Logan and Rowe were engaged when they made their way to WWE and given their hectic work schedules now they are employed by WWE, only tied the knot back in December last year. The wedding was attended by her Riott Squad teammates Ruby Riott and Liv Morgan and all guests were required to dress like Vikings which seemed as though it made for quite an interesting ceremony.
#3 Keith Lee and Mia Yim
Keith Lee is currently seen as quite a popular star in the NXT roster, whilst his girlfriend Mia Yim is already creating waves as part of the Women's Division. Both Yim and Lee have a depth of experience in the wrestling world, which could be why they only made their way to WWE last year.
Yim and Lee obviously competed on the Independent Circuit together a number of times and have teamed together a few times at NXT live events, so some fans are already aware that they are a couple.
This past week on NXT, Yim took a nasty bump on a ladder to end her match against Io Shirai to decide who would gain the advantage in the Women's War Games match next weekend and was then helped to the back by the medical staff.
The cameras finished filming following the match, but fans in attendance saw her boyfriend Keith Lee make his way out onto the ramp to ensure that Yim was alright, since he had seen her take the bump backstage. The couple then hugged on stage and Lee raised her hand at the to of the ramp.
#2 Mandy Rose and Tino Sabatelli
Interestingly, Mandy Rose has appeared on Total Divas before, it was just after she was the runner-up on WWE Tough Enough in 2015 and she was then able to introduce the world to her boyfriend at the time.
Rose only appeared on Total Divas for one season before she was then replaced and started to focus on her in-ring career in NXT. This then allowed her to push forward and put her in the place she current takes up on the main roster as part of Fire and Desire.
Somewhere along the way, Rose broke up with her boyfriend, whom she was dating before she joined WWE and announced back in April 2018 following the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, that she was now in a relationship with NXT star Tino Sabatelli.
The couple was first spotted together as part of the Hall of Fame Ceremony last year when they decided to go as a couple and given this, Rose later announced that the couple were together a few days later when she was a guest on the Lilian Garcia, Chasing Glory podcast.
#1 Killian Dain and Nikki Cross
Killian Dain and Nikki Cross have been together ever since they started working together on the UK Independent Circuit. The former Women's Tag Team Champion was then known as Nikki Storm and Dain was known as Big Damo.
The couple then made their way to WWE together back in 2016 when they were revealed as part of Sanity alongside Eric Young and Alexander Wolfe, but it was a shortlived stable that was later split in all directions.
Right now, Erick Young is on Monday Night Raw whilst Nikki Cross is on Friday Night SmackDown, Killian Dain is on NXT and Alexander Wolfe is part of Imperium on NXT UK.
Despite the fact that the couple has now been split for the first time in their career, they are still able to find time together and following their engagement bac in 2018, the couple officially married back in January this year.
Cross and Dain may have been able to work together in NXT, but none of their fanbase were aware that they were a couple until they announced their engagement on Instagram last year.
