WWE has been a place where friendship and rivalries take place
WWE is a frenzy of bigger-than-life characters, passionate rivalries, and unpredictable storylines. However, under the brilliant lights and booming entrances of WWE, a different type of friendship emerges known as best pals.
WWE Superstars practice for long hours together, undertake a tough road schedule, and experience the emotional rollercoaster of successes and disappointments. These shared experiences create bonds that transcend contrived rivalry, resulting in unexpected and rewarding friendships.
WWE, unlike other companies, develops a distinct sense of togetherness. Superstars are continuously pushing each other to the maximum, both physically and emotionally. This common suffering fosters a sense of understanding and respect, which may lead to true friendships.
Sharing the pressure of performing in front of millions of people, as well as the difficulty of remaining healthy on the road, may help superstars create close bonds.
5. Sasha Banks and Bayley
Sasha Banks and Bayley, essential members of WWE’s Four Horsewomen of NXT, have demonstrated an obvious relationship as competitors and friends.
Their closeness has been reflected in memorable tag team title reigns and several legendary battles, emphasizing their impact on WWE’s women’s wrestling scene.
Now Sasha Banks might be known as Mercedes Mone outside WWE, but Bayley could be spotted supporting her friend from time to time.
4. Pete Dunne & Tyler Bate
Triple H’s plan for NXT UK resulted in several well-received programs that crowned the inaugural NXT UK Champion. Tyler Bate won the title against Pete Dunne, and both proved to be exactly what Triple H was looking for in the project.
NXT UK battled before concluding and transferring both wrestlers to the NXT roster. Many new fans of theirs would be surprised to learn that they were best friends given how hard they hit each other. Dunne and Bate were fierce opponents, yet they are close friends.
3. Charlotte Flair & Becky Lynch
Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch forged an incredible friendship during their ascent to the top of WWE, making their way from developmental and onto the main roster together, culminating in a historic main event match against Ronda Rousey at WrestleMania 35.
While both performers had amazing chemistry inside the ring and were fierce onscreen competitors, their relationship outside of wrestling had endured for many years.
2. Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn
Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn had a long history of friendship. Before joining WWE, the two had spent years working together in the indie sector. This year, they won the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship at WrestleMania 39.
Owens and Zayn first crossed paths in 2003. The two would later become competitors and tag team partners in Ring of Honor before Owens revived their feud in “NXT” when Zayn won the championship there. They were both friends and adversaries on WWE’s main roster until reconciling earlier this year.
1. Shawn Michaels & Triple H
In the Kliq years, Shawn Michaels and Triple H became friends in the 1990s. D-Generation X’s formation allowed them to showcase their synergy now that Michaels had gone heel to create a cutting-edge performance.
Michaels’ retirement in 2002 allowed Triple H to feud with him for the first time. Triple H was now a much greater celebrity, bringing us some fantastic matches and segments versus Michaels.
Years later, both guys reunited with another DX to remind fans that they still loved one other. They also had been great friends for a long time.
