10 Marriages WWE Acknowledged And Turned Into Storylines
3. Booker T. And Sharmell
Few wrestling spouses have played the second to their husbands better than Sharmell Sullivan-Huffman, better known as Queen Sharmell. During the mid-2000s, Sharmell was a perfect valet for Booker, with the husband-wife duo gaining great success a United States Championship reign, a King of the Ring and a World Heavyweight Championship (Bookers only WWE world title win). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLmUveldJvE Although they had been an onscreen force for about a year, the Booker and Sharmell pairing took off when Booker won the 2006 King of the Ring tournament. With Sharmell playing off her status as a former Miss Black America complete with tiara the couple began speaking in faux British accents and putting on airs, and Booker referred to himself as the King of the Smackdown kingdom. They ruled over Smackdown for a good chunk of the year and remained an onscreen duo until Booker was injured and both were released in 2007.
