5 Most Insane Things Happening In Wrestling Right Now (Nov 9)

1. Ember Honeymoon

Shane McMahon Best In The World
WWE

We're not saying all modern professional wrestlers are dorks who chiefly enjoy cosplaying as pro wrestlers, but Ember Moon recently got married in a GOT ceremony.

Ember Moon and husband Matthew Palmer are something of a banter couple; a pro wrestler himself, he wears a t-shirt emblazoned with 'King Of The Black Women' at Indy shows (!). This Game Of Thrones/Harry Potter-themed wedding wasn't quite as questionable as that, even if the best man didn't bother to dress up for the occasion. Palmer more than compensated for this by borrowing one of Wade Barrett's old, sh*tty capes.

Ember even stretched the budget to hire a little person to play Tyrion Lannister. It's a shame Austin Aries left WWE last year. She could have phoned in a favour. On second glance, that may have just been a lifeless prop. Tyler Breeze would have appreciated the spot, surely.

Less facetiously, we wish the talented Ember Moon happiness in her marriage. She was defeated by Nia Jax last week, after Nia was distracted, so it's not as if her professional life is particularly fulfilling at present.
