WWE has amused audiences for decades, creating global superstars generation after generation. Though numerous wrestlers rose to abysmal fame, others just disappeared into thin air. Throughout the years, WWE has also witnessed several couples emerge, and in most cases, love found its way despite exorbitant age differences. The tales show that for these individuals, age indeed is nothing but a figure. In this piece, we present five WWE couples whose age differences are quite alarming.
Brock Lesnar and Sable
All in the professional wrestling community are aware of the combination of Brock Lesnar and Sable. Sable was one of the biggest names in WWE during the Attitude Era. Lesnar, naturally, has built a legendary career of his own. Prior to coming into contact with Lesnar, Sable had been involved in a number of relationships. She made her WWE debut in 1996 and divorced Marc Mero in 2004. She had already begun dating Lesnar even before she officially got divorced. The two got married in 2006. There is a difference of 10 years in their age.
The Undertaker and Michelle McCool
Both Michelle McCool and The Undertaker are big names in wrestling and have been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. The Undertaker competed in his last match during WrestleMania 36. The two were wedded in 2010 and have a child together. When they decided to get married, Michelle was 30 years old and The Undertaker was 45, a difference of 15 years. Michelle retired from WWE in 2011.
Kurt Angle and Giovanna Yannotti
Olympic gold medalist Kurt Angle has retired from professional wrestling and now enjoys his post-wrestling life. He is married to actress Giovanna Yannotti, who is 18 years younger than him. They met in 2009 on the set of the movie End Game and got married in 2012. For the record, Angle was previously married to Karen Smedley in 1998.
Jerry Lawler and Lauryn McBride
Wrestling icon Jerry “The King” Lawler has never been out of the limelight—not only professionally but also personally. He’s been married three times and was last married until 2003. In 2011, he entered into a long-term relationship with Lauryn McBride. The two never got married but have been together for more than a decade. Strangely, Lauryn is 39 years younger than Jerry.
Bret Hart and Stephanie Washington
Legendary wrestler Bret “The Hitman” Hart requires no introduction. His life in the wrestling ring is nostalgically recalled worldwide. Interestingly, Stephanie Washington—his present wife—hadn’t been born at all when Hart started wrestling in the 1970s. Stephanie was only a kid when Bret initially captured the Intercontinental Championship in WWE. Hart has been married three times, and he married Stephanie in 2010. The couple has a 26-year age gap.
