Apart from providing the superstars with a platform for wrestling, WWE has also been the place where some superstars found their beautiful life partners. For example, Edge and Beth Phoenix and CM Punk and AJ Lee are two of the few examples of such lovely couples. However, one couple that everyone looked forward to, split up much to the disappointment of the fans–John Cena and Nikki Bella.
Everyone knew about the relationship which Cena and Nikki had. But many people might not be aware that Nikki Bella and Dolph Ziggler were dating each other prior to that. It is believed that Nikki and Dolph dated back in 2008. During that time, both of them were living near Tampa, FL, and were working at Florida Championship Wrestling.
In 2015, Dolph filmed several scenes in WWE Total Divas where tried to win over Nikki Bella, who was still dating John Cena at that time. During a frank conversation with Nikki about their relationship, Ziggler asked Nikki, “So you’re saying there’s no feeling back to me?”

“I feel like it’s disrespectful to John. He treats me like a queen and no offense, we had a lot of ups and downs,” Nikki answered.
In reply, Dolph said, “That’s life. Five years later, I’m grown up. All the things that you’ve talked about, that we’ve talked about, I can actually do for you. I can give you kids, I can give you a husband.” Soon after that, Ziggler leaned in and tried to kiss Nikki Bella. However, Nikki immediately told Cena about that.
