5 WWE couples we surprisingly never saw together on WWE TV

#4 John Cena and Mickie James

John Cena dated Mickie James when they were both at the top of their game in the company. For those of you that are recent fans of the WWE product, before her hiatus and return, Mickie James was one of the leaders of the WWE Divas, with multiple championship reigns and great matches behind her.

John Cena was actually popular with the crowd and quickly picking up multiple WWE Championship reigns and main eventing pay-per-views left, right and centre.

The problem is, Mickie James was dating Kenny Dykstra and John Cena was actually married at the time so there was a lot of drama here. It was reported that when it all came to light, it kicked off in the locker room and it led to Dykstra getting fired while James was transferred and humiliated before she was eventually released. However, Cena remained at the top of the company for years to come.

Even though Mickie actually asked John Cena out in a backstage segment and there were several hints on WWE TV, they were never shown as a power couple. They could have had a relationship on TV to rival that of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.

One would assume that the reason for this would be John Cena being married at the time and it wouldn’t have exactly shown him in the best light. They may even have had to turn him heel at some point. Nevertheless, this hasn’t stopped WWE in the past and it’s not like them to miss out on a chance to make money.

Capitalising on controversial relationships is their bread and butter. Just ask Edge and Matt Hardy.
