AEW star reacts to rumors he is dating Lizzo

AEW wrestlers, like most celebrities, are pretty cautious about their personal lives. Fans rarely know anything about their relationships unless they announce it, either in the ring or via a post on social media.

As a result, several rumors about their personal lives circulate, and very rarely to wrestlers take it upon themselves to respond to gossip. But that's exactly what happened when a rumor that AEW star Kota Ibushi was dating American rapper Lizzo, a Grammy Award winner, started doing the rounds. Ibushi, as perplexed as the fans, finally answered with a confused question on Twitter.

Check out the post:

"Sorry for being so ignorant. What is she doing? Wrestling?" he posted.

The tweet could have several meanings, so let's just say that the Ibushi-Lizzo rumors are just that for the moment – rumors.

On the professional front, Ibushi is having a stellar career and has competed for big promotions such as NJPW, Dragon Door, WWE, and AEW.

AEW wrestlers typically marry within the squared circle

Wrestling is a hectic profession, with the talent being on the road for months together. There are several examples where they decide on a life partner who understands their world – and who better than someone from the same industry?

For example, wrestler Tay Melo has settled down with Sammy Guevara, and the two recently welcomed their first child. Jon Moxley is married to Renee Paquette, who works with the Tony Khan-owned company as a backstage interviewer and announcer. The two met while working for WWE.

In WWE, Seth Rollins is married to Becky Lynch, and both are professional wrestlers. In a unique case of love crossing the bounds of wrestling promotions, Andrade El Idolo, the AEW star, is married to WWE's Charlotte Flair. Idolo is one of the front-runners in the newly formed Continental Classic tournament.

Probably the most famous wrestling fraternity pairing before this was Triple H, who married Stephanie McMahon, the daughter of Vince McMahon. Stephanie has had an on-screen as well as a behind-the-screen role in the Stamford-based company. Vince McMahon was notorious for getting his family involved in feuds. During the Attitude Era, his wife, Linda McMahon, was involved in several angles and had an on-screen role for a while.
