#2. Mae Young and Mark Henry

Perhaps one of the most disturbing storylines that WWE has ever created revolved around a relationship was between Mae Young and "Sexual Chocolate" Mark Henry.

The storyline ran throughout 1999 and 2000 and saw the couple spark up a relationship which then led to Mae Young at 77 years old announcing that she was pregnant. Of course, attacks at the hands of The Dudley Boyz didn't help the pregnancy to go smoothly and a powerbomb off the stage could have had some disastrous consequences.

Mae Young shockingly went on to deliver her child live on WWE TV and it was revealed that whatever the star was carrying at the time was nothing more than a rubber glove/hand. It was a shocking end to what had been a disturbing story and one that now WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry rarely talks about.

This whole storyline proves just how different WWE was two decades ago and how far the company has been able to come when it relates to on-screen relationships.
