#2. WWE Superstar Sasha Banks - Former NXT Superstar Sarath Ton
A few years before joining WWE, Sasha Banks and her husband, Sarath Ton (FKA Mikaze), met on the independent circuit. They even faced each other in a four-way match at the 2012 Beyond Off The Grid event.
Later that same year, The Boss debuted on NXT while Ton joined three years later. While Banks later became one of the best in-ring performers, her husband was not as lucky. Ton's in-ring career ended shortly after his NXT debut, when the 38-year-old suffered a career-ending injury. Hence, he had to hang up his boots.

Banks and her husband never had the opportunity to work together in a WWE ring. Nonetheless, Ton has helped his wife in another way by making her ring gear.
"I’ve been making her gear since she first started [wrestling]. Literally, just when I first met her, I knew she needed gear. I let her know, like, ‘Hey, I got you.’ It’s been working out ever since, obviously," he said in a short documentary about his work.
Banks is currently out of action due to injury. Meanwhile, her husband is now a costume designer in WWE.
