5 times WWE interfered in a superstar's romantic relationship

3- Matt Hardy and Lita

Besides being highly successful in their wrestling careers, Matt Hardy and Lita also enjoyed an excellent off-screen relationship. That was until Adam Copeland aka the Edge entered the picture. Soon, Hardy and Lita split after it emerged that the latter was involved in an affair with Edge, with repercussions soon following.

WWE, not one to pass up the chance to capitalise on an opportunity, used the tension between the trio to form a storyline, which involved Lita turning villainous. Hardy was also fired from the show around a year after the fling, only to be rehired later on. All in all, WWE is perfectly capable of using romantic tension to their advantage, if that isn’t clear already.
