#10 & #9. Former WWE Superstars Karrion Kross and Scarlett Bordeaux
Karrion Kross and Scarlett Bordeaux started dating a few years before joining Vince McMahon's company. According to the former NXT Champion, Bordeaux was the one who made the first move in their relationship.
In an interview with Instinct Culture by Denise Salcedo last year, Kross revealed how he and Bordeaux kicked off their romance.
"When her and I met, there was a spark and there was a connection (...) It's like there's just the thing in the room when you know two people gravitate towards each other and we were both terrified of it. So we tried to stay away from each other for like a long time actually. It was kind of like her and I were so attracted to each other that it was actually intimidating to the both of us, so we tried to stay away from each other for a while. So, you know, I guess just one time out of many we were just hanging out and yeah, she made a move," Kross said.
Although they worked together on the independent circuit and in IMPACT Wrestling, Kross and Bordeaux only competed as a tag team once. In February 2019, the couple joined forces with Rickey Shane Page to face Eric Watts, Johnny Yuma, and Kevin Martenson at Bar Wrestling 30: Three's Company. However, they came up short.
Later in 2019, Bordeaux officially joined WWE. Her boyfriend then followed in her footsteps four months later. The couple debuted together on NXT in May 2020.
After dating for several years, Kross and Bordeaux announced their engagement last September. Two months later, Vince McMahon's company released them from their contracts due to budget cuts.
#8 & #7. Former WWE Superstars Toni Storm and Juice Robinson
Juice Robinson joined WWE in 2011 and made his NXT debut a year later. He spent nearly four years in Vince McMahon's company. However, the 32-year-old left in 2015 to join NJPW.
Two years after Robinson's departure, Toni Storm made her first WWE appearance as she participated in the 2017 Mae Young Classic tournament. A year later, she signed a contract with Vince McMahon's company. Storm spent three years in the company, during which she won the 2018 Mae Young Classic tournament and the NXT UK Women's Championship.
In mid-2020, the former NXT UK Women's Champion confirmed that she was dating Robinson via an Instagram post. Last September, the couple announced their engagement.
In an interview with Denise Salcedo on Instinct Culture, Robinson revealed how his life has changed in the past few months.
"My life coming out of this pandemic was way better than it was going in. My life has totally changed. We don't need to get personal about my life story and stuff but when this all started I had a little bachelor pad/ studio apartment in Tokyo, next to Shinjuku Station, the world's largest train station so I was living a fast bachelor lifestyle. Not saying I didn't want to settle down but there were no signs of slowing down. {laughs} Now I am sitting in a house that I bought, I am engaged, I am gonna be married, I have a dog running around annoying me as we speak, it's just a crazy thing," he said.
While Robinson is currently active in NJPW and IMPACT Wrestling, Storm left Vince McMahon's company last December. In her final televised match, she lost to Charlotte Flair in a SmackDown Women's Title match on the blue brand.
#6 & #5. WWE Women's Tag Team Champion Carmella and Corey Graves
Corey Graves joined Vince McMahon's company nearly a decade ago. He regularly competed on NXT for about three years, during which he won the NXT Tag Team Titles once, alongside Adrian Neville. However, he announced his retirement from in-ring action in December 2014 due to injury.
After stepping away from the ring, Graves became a color commentator. Meanwhile, Carmella signed with WWE in 2013 and made her main roster debut on SmackDown three years later.
Graves and Carmella first got to know each other while they both worked on the blue brand. In early 2019, the two superstars started dating. After being in a relationship for nearly three years, the couple got engaged on Carmella's birthday last October.
Carmella and her fiancé are very open about their relationship. The two regularly share photos together on their Instagram accounts, expressing their love for each other. Celebrating her birthday four months ago, Graves sent his fiancée a heartfelt message.
"Happy Birthday to my queen. My rock. My sanity. My insanity. My best friend. There is no one else in the world I would rather spend this journey through life with. I love you @carmellawwe," he wrote in an Instagram post.
Graves is currently a color commentator on Monday Night RAW. Meanwhile, Carmella is an active competitor on the red brand. She now holds the Women's Tag Team Championship alongside Queen Zelina.
#4. Former WWE Superstar Mojo Rawley
After playing football for several years, Mojo Rawley signed with Vince McMahon's company in 2012. He competed for three years on NXT before making his main roster debut in 2015.
Rawley spent nearly six years in WWE, during which he won the 2017 André the Giant Memorial Trophy and the 24/7 Championship seven times. However, Vince McMahon's company released him from his contract in April 2021 due to budget cuts.
Celebrating the new year, the former 24/7 Champion posted a photo with his girlfriend, Gracie, on Instagram. In the caption, he stated that his life changed in 2021.
"Life as I knew it changed in 2021…..for the better….in every way. The foundation for the next chapter of my life was set. 2022 is going to be the biggest year yet!" he wrote.
Nearly a month and a half later, Rawley and Grace announced their engagement. The former WWE Superstar recently sent his fiancée a heartfelt message, celebrating Valentine's Day.
"I love you. That is all you’ll ever need to know. Happy Valentines Day Gracie Tracy!" he wrote in an Instagram post.
Rawley has not competed inside the squared circle for more than a year and a half now. His last match came in June 2020 when he lost to Shorty G on SmackDown.
#3 & #2. Former WWE Superstars Deonna Purrazzo and Steve Maclin
Deonna Purrazzo competed in several promotions, including IMPACT Wrestling, before officially joining WWE in 2018. The 27-year-old spent nearly two years in Vince McMahon's company, during which she only competed in a few televised matches. The company then released her from her contract in April 2020.
After her departure, Purrazzo returned to IMPACT Wrestling. She is also currently active in Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. The former NXT Superstar is now the AAA Reina de Reinas Champion.
During her time in Vince McMahon's company, Purrazzo started dating Steve Maclin (FKA Steve Cutler). In an interview with Fightful, the former IMPACT Knockouts Champion disclosed that although they grew up an hour away from each other, they never met before she joined NXT.
"Although we grew up an hour from each other, we know all the same people from Jersey, we had never met. We had never been around each other before WWE or until I came to NXT," she said.
Maclin joined WWE in 2014 and spent nearly seven years in the company. Nevertheless, he was released from his contract in February 2021. Later that same year, he joined his girlfriend in IMPACT Wrestling.
After dating for nearly two years, the two former WWE Superstars announced their engagement a few days ago.
#1. WWE Superstar Harland
Harland signed a developmental WWE contract in early 2021. Last December, he made his in-ring debut on NXT 2.0, defeating Guru Raaj.
Two months before making his official in-ring debut, Harland and his girlfriend, Isabella, celebrated their third anniversary. The 23-year-old sent her a heartfelt message via Instagram.
"The last 3 years have been the absolute BEST with YOU! ♥️ There is no one in the world like you @izzle.yizzle ..Beyond grateful and blessed to have an angel like you💜 There isn’t enough time in the day with you ever… Happy 3 Year anniversary @izzle.yizzle You are my twin flame, my TRUE RIDE OR DIE and my ultimate BEST friend. I love you forever and ever Isabella," he wrote.
Isabella has been very supportive of Harland since the couple started dating. Celebrating his birthday last March, she described him in an Instagram post as a hard worker. She also stated that he deserved all the success he had achieved.
"Happy 23rd Birthday baby! It’s been a wild ride so far & I’m so glad I got to cheer you on through your football years & now get to cheer for you in wrestling @wwe ! You’re the hardest worker I know & 100% deserving of all the success you’ve achieved, & will achieve in your career & in life! I love you & can’t wait to see where life takes us," she wrote.
