Liv Morgan signed with WWE in 2014 and started performing for its NXT brand. Soon after, her relationship with Enzo Amore came into the spotlight.
The pair began dating in 2016 but went their separate ways in 2017 after Liv accused Enzo of cheating on her. After their breakup, Enzo released a song titled Liv A 30 For 30.
After the couple separated, Liv’s social media interaction with former NXT UK Champion Tyler Bate caught the WWE Universe’s attention. The two did not hold back as fans began to speculate that they were dating.
Photos of the couple started doing the rounds on the internet, but nothing was confirmed by either superstar. It's not known if and when the two got together. In 2018, during WrestleMania season, Liv confirmed that she was single and ready to mingle. However, she did not confirm whether she was in a relationship before the announcement.
Bate got into a relationship with Toni Storm soon after, but the couple separated soon after too. Meanwhile, Liv Morgan’s current relationship status is still unclear.
#3. Xavier Woods and Paige's personal video was leaked
Xavier Woods is known as one of the friendliest characters in WWE. He has made some great friends along his wrestling journey and has formed one of the greatest wrestling factions with Big E and Kofi Kingston.
In March 2017, hackers leaked a video featuring Woods and fellow superstar Paige. The intimate content of the video suggested that the two were a couple at some point. However, the video harmed their personal lives - and their relationship was never confirmed.
Paige appeared on Lilian Garcia's Chasing Glory podcast where she broke down in tears as she talked about the leaked video and the effect it had on her.
"I had a ton of people destroying me. Cyberbullying is a real thing. 50 percent of that is what made me want to kill myself. These people don't have a life. I usually just snap out of things, but a girl wrote to me who told me I was her biggest inspiration. ... Just having that support system made me kick out. I do have the best fan base."
It is still unclear whether Woods and Paige were in a relationship at the time. Paige is currently in a relationship with Falling in Reverse lead singer Ronnie Radke. Meanwhile, Woods married Jess Watson in 2015 and their son was born in 2017.
#2. Bo Dallas and Liv Morgan are rumored to be in a relationship since 2021
Former NXT Champion Bo Dallas was once WWE’s hottest prospect. He worked with The Miz and Curtis Axel for several months before their partnership came to an end.
Dallas went off-screen for a long time and WWE forgot all about him. Despite continuing to tease his return to the ring on social media, nothing substantial happened.
He was married to a Swedish arm wrestling champion Sarah Bäckman from 2014 until their divorce in 2019. Dallas was released by WWE in April 2021.
Before his release, rumors broke that he was dating fellow superstar Liv Morgan. It was revealed that the two were living on a farm and starting a real estate business to prepare for life after professional wrestling.
“Regarding Bo Dallas [Taylor Rotunda], who is under contract but never used, he is not even brought to TV to sit in catering. He’s still getting paid and has a farm living with Morgan and they’ve started a family real estate business and studying that to prepare for life after wrestling.”
The rumors haven’t been confirmed by either party, and it looks like Morgan is solely focusing on her wrestling career. She has received a good push on the RAW roster where she could end up winning the women’s championship soon.
#1. Kurt Angle and Dawn Marie were said to be in a relationship in the early 2000s
Dawn Marie joined WWE in 2002 and first appeared as Vince McMahon’s legal assistant. She gained prominence soon after and had a memorable feud with Torrie Wilson. She stuck around for over three years before departing WWE.
During her time in WWE, Marie was involved in a few romantic relationships both on and off-screen. One superstar Marie was rumored to be romantically involved with was Kurt Angle.
While the rumors were never confirmed, Marie did shed some light on her past relationships in WWE during an interview with Rob Feinstein without revealing any names.
"I would prefer not to [say his name]. Yeah [the rumors were true]. Just you know, people have lives and families and there's just no need to talk about things. But I had two relationships, long-standing relationships, when I was with WWE. You know, they all have families and lives and that come afterwards and I do too, and I'd rather not talk about them," she said.
Dawn Marie married Matthew DaMatta in 2005. She left the company a month later after revealing that she was pregnant. Meanwhile, the Hall of Famer has been married twice.
