WWE weddings are always interrupted with some kind of revelation,

There have been many weddings on WWE TV over the years since there's nothing more intriguing than a romance storyline in a wrestling ring. It's hard to imagine a storyline any more appealing to fans, which could be why the company went with one between Bobby Lashley and Lana earlier this year and made it their headline for a number of episodes of RAW.

Whilst many of these weddings are the work of pure fiction and are merely there to keep the audience entertained, there are others that were done between stars who were either already married or would later go on to walk down the aisle in real life.

It appears that sometimes WWE's creative team can be psychic when it comes to throwing together couples.

#6 Real - Lana and Rusev

Lana and Rusev were positioned together in WWE when the two stars were already coming through the ranks in NXT. The couple has been dating since 2013 and when they were promoted to the main roster they were put into a number of storylines that confirmed that they were in a relationship.

One of these storylines even saw Lana aligned with Dolph Ziggler and Summer Rae aligned with Rusev before the storyline was scrapped when TMZ revealed that the couple was engaged in real life.

Lana and Rusev married back in 2016 and their wedding was the focus of one of the episodes of Total Divas. The couple later stepped into a feud with Roman Reigns and their on-screen wedding didn't go quite as smoothly since Lana was left covered in cake.

The Bulgarian Brute has since been released by WWE but the couple is still married and often update images together on their Instagram pages. Lana even showed up on her husband's Twitch stream recently.

#5 Fake - Daniel Bryan and AJ Lee

Daniel Bryan is married to Brie Bella and the couple currently have a daughter called Birdie Jo and another one the way. AJ Lee is currently married to former WWE star CM Punk but back in 2012, the relationship status of these two stars wasn't as well known which allowed them to play out a believable romance.

Lee went through a number of strange storylines throughout that year from Kane to Daniel Bryan and even CM Punk as well as then going on to become General Manager of Monday Night Raw.

It was a crazy few months for the future WWE Divas Champion and one of the highlights was the wedding between Bryan and Lee in the summer of 2012. The ceremony looked as though it was going to go without a hitch until it came to announcing them as husband and wife.

The wedding was never made official since Lee stopped the wedding and announced that she had accepted another man's proposal. That was later revealed to be WWE Chairman Vince McMahon's proposal to become the new General Manager of RAW.

#4 Real - Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth

Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth are one of the best-known couples in WWE history. Elizabeth met Savage when she was working as an announcer for International Championship Wrestling and the couple later went on to marry in 1984.

The couple later joined WWE, then known as the World Wrestling Federation and in 1991, as part of their on-screen storyline, Randy Savage proposed to his wife. Miss Elizabeth accepted and the couple officially married as part of "A Match Made in Heaven" at SummerSlam in 1991.

The wedding didn't go without problems since Jake "The Snake" Roberts and The Undertaker crashed the ceremony. Miss Elizabeth famously opened one of the wedding gifts which contained a snake and it scared the life out of here, this was obviously put there by Roberts and later led to Savage moving into a feud with Roberts following the ceremony.

The following year, Savage and Elizabeth officially divorced in real life, the couple went on to work together alongside Hulk Hogan a few years later in WWE. Elizabeth and Savage went on to remarry before their untimely deaths.

#3 Fake - Bobby Lashley and Lana

The most recent WWE wedding took place earlier this year when Bobby Lashley and Lana decided to tie the knot, just weeks after The Ravishing Russian had asked for a divorce from Rusev.

The storyline dictated that Rusev had cheated on Lana so she had got revenge by moving on to a relationship with "her hot hot boyfriend" Bobby Lashley. This led to some cringe-worthy segments in WWE where Lana claimed that Rusev was obsessed with her and later that she was pregnant all in order to trick him into a beatdown.

This all came to a head when she finally went on to marry Lashley on the final episode of RAW in 2019. The wedding was crashed by her real-life husband Rusev and a number of other men before Liv Morgan came out and dropped the bombshell that she was in a relationship with Lana before as well.

The wedding was never finalized, but the following week it was finally made official. Sadly, the couple didn't even make a full year since Lashley asked Lana for a divorce a few weeks ago on WWE Monday Night RAW.

#2 Real - Triple H and Stephanie

Triple H and Stephanie McMahon are perhaps the biggest power couple in WWE history. Their storyline in WWE began long before the couple began dating in real life. Triple H was part of D-Generation X before he stepped into a storyline with Stephanie McMahon, which would later go on to spark some romance between the two stars in real life.

Whilst their wedding on WWE TV was a little different from their real one since Triple H drugged Stephanie and took her to Las Vegas. The couple did later go on to marry in real life.

Whilst Stephanie and Triple H married on-screen back in 1999, it wasn't until four years later in 2003 that the couple officially tied the knot in real life. More than 17 years later the couple is still going strong and has since welcomed three daughters together.

Stephanie and Triple H have continued to be on and off-screen authority figures in WWE, but it's interesting to see the storyline that their initial romance was built upon.

#1 Fake - Edge and Vickie Guerrero

Vickie Guerrero was introduced to the WWE Universe back in 2006 following the death of her husband Eddie. Vickie would later go on to be an integral part of WWE storylines for more than a decade afterward since she stepped into storylines with some of the biggest stars in the company and even became General Manager of the company's biggest shows.

One storyline that gained a lot of backlash from the WWE Universe was when Eddie's widow went on to marry Edge as part of an on-screen story. Of course, the couple was not in a relationship in real life but they were both heels at this point so it generated a lot of heat.

As with every WWE wedding in history, this one was also crashed, this time by Triple H. The Game went on to show a video where Edge had decided to cheat on his future wife with their wedding planner. Interestingly, their wedding planner actually later went on to become a Divas Champion herself called Alicia Fox.
