There are many WWE couples on the main roster at present and even more down in NXT. When stars are signed to developmental contracts with the company, they work closely together with many others in the Performance Center for several months, which is why relationships are created.
At present, there are a number of couples in NXT. Even though the likes of Candice LeRae and Johnny Gargano or even Mia Yim and Keith Lee didn't meet whilst working together in WWE, instead, these couples were already together when they were signed to the company.
There have also been several WWE couples including Alexa Bliss and Buddy Murphy, Liv Morgan and Enzo Amore, and even Carmella and Big Cass who all began dating whilst in NXT but were unable to survive the main roster. Here are just six current WWE Superstars who met their partner whilst in NXT and have gone on to marry.

#6 Bianca Belair and Montez Ford
Bianca Belair and Montez Ford currently perform together on Monday Night RAW, after the EST Of WWE was promoted to the main roster back at WrestleMania in April.
The EST of WWE joined her husband on the main roster after a fantastic run in NXT, just months after Ford was promoted to RAW alongside Angelo Dawkins.
The couple met whilst training in NXT since Belair revealed to Lilian Garcia on Chasing Glory that she had an instant connection with Ford when she met him in the Performance Center.
"For me it was. I remember seeing him and just thinking, I have friends here and they can be witnesses, ‘Wow, that’s a beautiful man.’ I had an immediate crush on him. He got hurt for awhile and he disappeared for a little while, for a couple months when I first started. It was kinda just, it was an immediate connection. We’ve kind of been inseparable ever since. We got married, and it’s just crazy, because we come from two completely different sides of the world."
Ford and Belair married back in June 2018 after announcing their engagement the year before.
#5 Zelina Vega and Aleister Black
Zelina Vega currently appears on WWE RAW where her husband Aleister Black also works. While the couple doesn't actually work together on-screen, it's reported that when the two stars did work together as part of a feud in NXT, an instant connection was formed.
Vega and Black kept their relationship a secret for a number of months and were dating in private from early 2018 since it was only made public that the couple was together when WWE revealed that they were married back in June 2018.
Zelina Vega managed Andrade whilst in NXT and was able to work with Black throughout their feud over the NXT Championship, which allowed the two stars to get much closer. Vega and Black have their own Youtube Channel where they often share some interesting facts and secrets about their life together.
Vega recently hinted on RAW that she is done managing Andrade and Angel Garza behind on WWE TV, and it could be that the former NXT star would move on to manage her real-life husband now that he has turned heel if that's the route WWE decide to take.
#4 Lana and Rusev
Lana and Rusev were put together on WWE NXT back in 2013 after the company signed the former following her audition for the 2013 Diva Search. Rusev had a number of managers before Lana, but it was the Ravishing Russian who remained his manager for a number of years and was promoted to the main roster alongside The Bulgarian Brute.
The couple went on to connect and begin dating whilst in NXT, before announcing their engagement whilst in the middle of a storyline on WWE TV.
Rusev and Lana later went on to marry and both of their weddings in Miami and Bulgaria were featured on an episode of Total Divas since both stars were main cast members at the time.
Lana and Rusev married back in 2016 and have since been part of some interesting storylines on WWE TV, including a recent one which included Bobby Lashley, but their marriage has remained solid throughout.
At present, Lana is part of a storyline where she is the manager of Natalya on Monday Night RAW, but her husband Rusev was released by WWE back in April and has since moved over to AEW where he is known as Miro.
#3 Tyler Breeze and Audrey Marie
Tyler Breeze has had an interesting career in WWE, since the current NXT Tag Team Champion was part of the Black and Gold brand for several years before he was promoted to the main roster.
Breeze's main roster run didn't go to plan, and after the star was underutilized for a number of years, he was moved back to NXT, where he seems to be part of much more intriguing storylines.
At present, Breeze appears alongside Fandango on NXT, which is where Prince Pretty met his future wife.
Audrey Marie signed with WWE back in 2011 and was part of the company when WWE rebranded into NXT in 2012. Before Marie was released by WWE back in 2013, she began a relationship with fellow star Tyler Breeze after the two stars were in a faction together that also included Xavier Woods.
Marie and Breeze continued their relationship following her release from WWE and married back in September 2016. Marie has since continued to wrestle on the Independent Circuit over the past few years.
#2 Bo Dallas and Sarah Backman
It's been almost a year since Bo Dallas has been seen on WWE TV, but the brother of former Universal Champion Bray Wyatt is still a member of the main roster, even though he currently isn't part of any on-going storylines.
Interestingly, at one point Bo Dallas was considered to be the more successful brother since he became the NXT Champion before Wyatt was able to make any kind of impact in the company.
It was whilst Dallas was down in NXT that he seemed to have the most success of his career and it was where he met his future wife. Dallas met Sarah Backman whilst she was working for WWE back in 2013.
The former eight-time arm wrestling champion signed for the company in 2013 and became known by the ring name Shara before she requested her release and was granted it in April 2014.
Dallas and Backman continued their relationship following her release and married just two months after the star left WWE in June 2014. Backman currently works as a real estate broker.
#1 Peyton Royce and Tye Dillinger
Peyton Royce has made headlines recently following the split of The IIconics on WWE TV where it's believed that Royce will be the member of the group that is pushed towards the Women's Championship.
Royce and Billie Kay came through the ranks together in NXT and are even former Women's Tag Team Champions, but the decision was made the split the two friends a few weeks ago.
Royce also met her future husband whilst she was wrestling in NXT since she this is where she started dating Tye Dillinger. The couple kept their relationship under wraps for a number of years before deciding to make it public that they were together back in 2018.
Royce and Dillinger announced their engagement before The Perfect 10 left WWE and moved on to become Shawn Spears in AEW. Despite working for two different company's the couple has been able to maintain their relationship and married back in the summer of 2019.
Royce now has the chance to become a star in WWE, whilst her husband continues to make a name for himself as part of All Elite Wrestling.
