3 WWE Superstars who dated celebrities and 3 who married them

#4 Dolph Ziggler (dated Amy Schumer)

It has been more than 15 years since Dolph Ziggler made his way to WWE. Initially portraying the role of a male cheerleader as a part of The Spirit Squad, Ziggler later became a solo act and quickly rose to fame on the WWE SmackDown brand. Ziggler is a two-time World Champion and has also won several other mid-card titles.

Fans might be aware of the fact that Ziggler is also a stand-up comedian. Ziggler dated fellow comedian Amy Schumer for a short period before the two called it quits. Ziggler went on to talk about his relationship with Schumer in an interview.

It's really challenging. I love… It was so great. Like, usually, I'm the killer funny one and I'm like, 'ah, she's funnier than me? This is… Oh yeah? Alright. Lets see.' It makes me think and it challenges me. I love it. It was so fun. I held my own, by the way. And constantly, she'd be like, 'you know you're not funnier than me?' 'We'll see. We'll see.'

Ziggler has been involved with several WWE female Superstars during his run with the company, most notably AJ Lee and Mandy Rose. Ziggler and Rose' on-screen romantic association came to an end on the Road to WWE WrestleMania 36, when Rose found out that Ziggler and Sonya Deville had tricked her into hating on Otis.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
