WRESTLING COUPLES

Kayfabe, real-life, and a mixture of the two. Some are entertaining, some are surprising (to the average fan), and so on, and so on. Keeping with the occasion of Valentine's Day, here are some of the Non-Geeky Nerd's favorite Wrestling Couples...

"Mach Man" Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth
If you followed wrestling in the 1980's, this was THE couple of wrestling. Real life married couple (even before SummerSlam 1991), but unfortunately ended up divorcing. But even so, for most they will always be the first couple of wrestling.


Matt Hardy and Lita
They were everyone's (mostly) favorite couple during the Attitude Era. Then they were everyone's favorite Jerry Springer couple when Edge was added to the mix. It made for a great worked shoot each week for a period at least.


Triple H and Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley
They are this generations Vince and Linda McMahon. And to think how they started is quite hilarious in hind sight. Triple H definitely upgraded as we all know. Chyna be crazy.


Jeff Jarrett and Karen Jarrett (formerly Angle)
This was Matt and Lita on a higher level so to speak. The real life story behind it all, made Jeff Jarrett and Kurt Angle's matches that much more intense.  Guess we can thank Karen for that?


CM Punk and AJ Lee
Sure, Punk has jumped over to MMA via the UFC. But, this was more prefered than Cena and Nikki Bella or Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella. Right?

DID VINCE RUSSO JUST KILL HIS 2ND WRESTLING COMPANY?

It is possible. Very possible. It is being reported that Spike TV informed Dixie Carter and TNA Wrestling that they not be renewing their contract come October. Supposed reason? Vince Russo's "under the table" involvement with TNA. Something Spike TV apparently was very clear about. No Russo.
If all of this is true, and let's say that Dixie can't find the company another television deal? And TNA folds? It will mean that Vince Russo has killed another wrestling promotion. What's impressive about this feat, is that this time around it was by pure association. That, is hilarious.

What is ironic, is that as of late TNA has been on a pretty good run. True, Impact has been "stacked" lately because of TNA Wrestling's attempt to woo the Spike TV execs. But, it has been good. And will admit, there are moments where Russo's work is good, or it appears to be for a moment, I think he just needs a McMahon to keep him inline. If anything, give him credit for helping Booker T get his first of 5x WCW titles.
