5 Current wrestling couples who are split between WWE and AEW 

AEW has proved its worth over the past year and given the recent debut of Sting and the partnership between All Elite Wrestling and IMPACT, the war between WWE and AEW has definitely reached new heights.

Since AEW was established back in 2019, several former WWE stars have made the move over to their newest competition and cut ties with their former company in the process.

Vickie Guerrero even confirmed that despite having a good relationship with WWE in recent years, she was cut off from the company when she appeared as a guest announcer for AEW back in 2019.

AEW and WWE may be seen as bitter enemies at present, but several real-life couples are stuck in the middle of the issues between the two companies.

#5. WWE's Cedric Alexander and AEW's Big Swole

Cedric Alexander is currently part of The Hurt Business on Monday Night RAW, alongside the likes of Bobby Lashley, MVP, and Shelton Benjamin, and could become RAW Tag Team Champion next weekend at TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs.

Whilst Alexander has finally been given the push he deserves on Monday Night RAW, he is a star who has also been seen backstage at AEW in recent months supporting his wife Big Swole. Cedric was spotted backstage at AEW Full Gear in November when he was part of a video that was shared on his wife's Instagram page.

Big Swole and Cedric Alexander have been married since 2018 but the couple shares a daughter together called Adessah who is six-years-old.

Swole has been the backbone of the AEW Women's Division since she made her debut for WWE's rival company but has most recently been making appearances on AEW Dark.

#4. WWE's Adam Cole and AEW's Britt Baker

Adam Cole recently emerged victorious alongside The Undisputed Era inside War Games after finally being able to put his feud with Pat McAfee to bed. The former NXT Champion was heavily linked with an exit from WWE earlier this year, something that was seemingly backed up by his long-time girlfriend Britt Baker.

Baker, who is a real-life registered dentist, was the first female wrestler to be signed to All Elite Wrestling whilst the promotion was still finding its feet ahead of its debut in 2019.

Baker has since become the most used female wrestler in the Women's Division and at one point was even spotted in the audience at NXT where she was seen supporting her partner Adam Cole.

Cole and Baker have been in a relationship throughout his run in NXT which has led to several WWE appearances for Baker, but she was never officially signed to the same company as her partner.

Cole is one of NXT's biggest stars at present, but it's believed that the former Champion could be set to make his WWE main roster debut at The Royal Rumble next month.

#3. WWE's Bayley and AEW's Aaron Solow

Aaron Solow and Bayley are now split between WWE and AEW

Bayley recently lost her SmackDown Women's Championship to best friend Sasha Banks at Hell in a Cell but is still coming off the back of the best year of her WWE career.

The former NXT Women's Champion debuted a new look and new attitude last year which led straight to the Women's Championship and a headline feud against her best friend, which also saw her step inside Hell in a Cell for the first time.

Whilst Bayley's WWE career is finally taking off, her fiance Aaron Solow seemingly looks as though he's found his feet in AEW as part of AEW Dark over the past few weeks.

Solow and Bayley have been in a relationship since their time on the Independent Circuit, but over the past eight years have both been part of separate promotions.

Solow has made several appearances in WWE over the past few years but has been unable to gain a contract from the company that his fiance is part of. Solow has made several appearances for AEW and could be the next star officially signed to the brand in the near future.

#2. WWE's Peyton Royce and AEW's Shawn Spears

Peyton Royce was set for the biggest push of her career earlier this year when The IIconics were split for the first time in their WWE career. The former Women's Tag Team Champion has since been unable to find her feet on Monday Night RAW as a solo wrestler, even though WWE has experimented with putting her in a new team with Lacey Evans.

Royce's former tag team partner Billie Kay hasn't found much more success following her move over to SmackDown, which begs the question of why the split was needed.

Before Royce was promoted to the main roster, she met her future husband Tye Dillinger, who was performing as 'The Perfect 10' down in NXT. The couple was engaged whilst working together for WWE, before later announcing that they had married in the summer of 2019.

Dillinger made it to WWE's main roster before requesting his release from the company last year and making his move over to AEW.

Now known as Shawn Spears, the former WWE star has become one of the best heels in AEW since aligning himself with Tully Blanchard.

#1. WWE's Lana and AEW's Miro

Lana could become a WWE Women's Tag Team Champion at TLC: Tables, Ladders, and Chairs next weekend, after what has been a lengthy feud with Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler.

Lana has been put through the announce table on Monday Night RAW an impressive nine times in recent weeks as many WWE fans believed that Lana was being punished for the fact that her husband Rusev had made the move over to AEW.

Rusev was one of the shock releases back in April when the company was forced to make budget cuts surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. Whilst it was unclear where Rusev would go following his release, he later appeared on AEW Dynamite under his new name Miro.

Miro has since had an interesting run on AEW Dynamite whilst his wife has remained part of WWE in his absence.

Lana was recently part of a Network documentary where she revealed just how tough it has been for her in recent months because she became so used to having her husband by her side in the WWE locker room.
