Peyton Royce and current AEW Superstar Shawn Spears met and began dating whilst they were both part of NXT.

The couple had been together for several years before their relationship became public knowledge and married after Spears left WWE.

In a surprising turn of events, Peyton Royce was released from WWE alongside her IIconics team-mate Billie Kay earlier this year, and the duo has since sat out their 90-day non-compete clause.

Now known as Cassie Lee, Royce recently announced that she is returning to wrestling alongside Kay, presently known as Jessica McKay. The duo has renamed themselves as "The IInspiration" and could be heading over to AEW in the near future.

Recent rumors suggest the tag-team could be heading to IMPACT Wrestling, but with Royce's husband wrestling for AEW, there's always a chance that All Elite Wrestling could add them to their Women's Division.
