It seems that WWE Superstars are having babies left, right and centre these days with another baby born by a professional wrestling power couple just yesterday But as is often the case in all other aspects of life, WWE couples don't even do 'having a baby' normally.

That's right! We all know having a baby is hard, difficult work. You have to keep a tiny human being alive all whilst putting your body on the line in the ring, undergoing the extensive and often gruelling touring schedule and changing nappies backstage whilst Kevin Owens or Seth Rollins practise their promos. As a result the last thing you'd want to do if you were a WWE Superstar is wrestle right?

Well, actually there are a handful of WWE couples who not only wrestled leading up to the birth of their children, but continued wrestling afterwards. If that's not the most hardcore thing you could possibly do I don't know what is! And they say wrestling isn't real!

So who are the brave and valiant pairs that continued to run the ropes and run to the crib several times throughout the night to stop the baby crying? Let's take a look at the five WWE couples who had a baby whilst both were still wrestling.


#5 Mike and Maria Bennett

We start with Mike and Maria Bennett as they're the most recent WWE Superstar couple of have a baby whilst both are still technically active Superstars on the WWE roster, at least for the second time.

This week Maria announced the birth of a baby boy they named Carver Mars Bennett and their first child is, of course, the rapidly growing girl Freddie Moon Bennett.

That's right! These absolute rock stars have had not one, but two children whilst undergoing the arduous lifestyle of touring with WWE. At one point these two were making appearances on Monday Night RAW and showing up at 205 LIVE every week. It's a wonder they even had time to make a baby.

Maria even won the 24/7 Championship whilst heavily pregnant after months of WWE making Maria's pregnancy a storyline that involved shaming Mike Bennett as not being the 'real father' of the baby.

#4 Miz and Maryse

Moving swiftly on we come to the 'Most Must-See' couple in all of Sports Entertainment, The Miz and Maryse. Somehow these two have managed to juggle appearing in the ring, starring in their own reality show 'Miz and Mrs' and having two children in two years.

Maryse and Miz had their first child, Monroe Sky Mizanin, in March, 2018, and their second child Madison Jade Mizanin was born not too long afterwards in September, 2019. You'd think in that time the pair would take it easy. They didn't!

Two months before she gave birth to Monroe, Maryse was at the RAW 25th Anniversary show and one month afterwards she was filming backstage segments to support Miz during the Mixed Match challenge. Just three months later her and Miz were back on SmackDown full time.

A mere nine months after giving birth Maryse actively participated in a mixed-tag team match with The Miz against Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella. Five months after that, in February, Maryse announced she was pregnant again and did so in the middle of the ring. Take a day off guys!

#3 Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella

We already mentioned them in the last slide as they took part in the mixed tag-team match against Miz and Maryse so we might as well cover the next insane parents who decided wrestling and having children at the same time was a good idea - Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella.

Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella had their adorable little girl, Birdie Joe Danielson in May, 2017 which was when Daniel Bryan was smack-bang in the middle of his stint as the SmackDown Live General Manager.

As if that wasn't akward enough for the couple, they both decided returning to the ring mere months later in 2018 would be a great idea with Bryan making a miracle comeback and Brie Bella entering the Royal Rumble just seven months after giving birth. This pair certainly don't do things by halfs!

Brie Bella even continued wrestling sporadically for the rest of that year, all the way until October when she announced she was retired. However, the pair have just announced they're expecting their second which will probably make them want to do a mixed tag-team death-match two months afterwards or something.

#2 Triple H and Stephanie McMahon

Triple H and Stephanie McMahon are two very important people in WWE. Triple H is Executive Vice President of Talent, Events and Creative and Stephanie McMahon is the Chief Brand Officer of WWE. They are both often onscreen talents as well so they definitely won't have time to juggle parenthood with all of that.

Nope, these two champions somehow absolutely made time to have THREE children during their WWE careers - Aurora Rose Levesque in 2006, Murphy Claire Levesque in 2008 and finally Vaughn Evelyn Levesque in 2010.

Naturally you'd expect Triple H and Stephanie McMahon took it easy during those four years, you know, until they had the whole parenting thing locked down right? Nope, Triple H had multiple WWE Championship reigns between 2007-2009 and Stephanie McMahon became the onscreen RAW General Manager.

Sometimes I forget to let my dog in after I've let him out and these two were the very literal faces of Monday Night RAW and raising three children at the same time. Couldn't be me. Could. Not. Be. Me!

#1 Bray Wyatt and Jojo

Bray Wyatt and Jojo Offerman had Knash Sixx Rotunda in May last year and by all accounts it was a fairly traumatic birth as Jojo haemorrhaged during labour and could have potentially died.

You'd think an event like that, the birth of your son and the near death of your partner would really focus the mind and make you reevaluate what's important, you know? It might even make you grow up a little, make you start taking life seriously.

Or, in Bray Wyatt's case, it turns you into a mask wearing demonic entity capable of materialising out of thin air, who can't be stopped and can't be beaten, but who sometimes plays with puppets in a pretend and possible metaphysical children's television show set. I've heard becoming a father will do that to a man.

Sure, Wyatt was off for the majority of Jojo's pregnancy, but for him to return with a character as intricate and as interesting as The Fiend and all the Firefly Funhouse vignettes he must've spent most of his time working on the act. That's impressive.
