Dykstra was engaged to current RAW star Mickie James in 2006 when the latter allegedly started to see John Cena behind his back.

In 2012, Dysktra revealed how he found out James and Cena were seeing each other:

"She was googling mickie james and john cena dating. I asked why, she broke down crying. Then I heard more from others. She was checking to see if it was on the net yet"

Dykstra was later moved to SmackDown while Mickie James remained on RAW. He was jobbed out for the rest of his run before being released from the company.
