Promotions: WWE (James) and NWA (Aldis)

If they reach the point of Mickie James and Nick Aldis, they'll be doing well. Current WWE star James and reigning NWA World Heavyweight Champion Aldis were married in 2015. They also have a little boy together, and work overtime to make sure they're a tight-knit family.

Admittedly, James' WWE duties aren't as full on as they used to be. At 39 years of age, she's used sparingly on television in 2019; in fact, her last televised match was as part of the WrestleMania 35 pre-show Women's Battle Royal. Since then, she's worked just one house show match after taking some time off.

Meanwhile, Aldis is a two-time NWA Champ and one of the biggest names on the market who isn't tied down to a major company. NWA traditionalists may hate that wording, but it's true the brand isn't quite in the same league as WWE or AEW.

Regardless of that, he's successful, and he's part of a sleeper power couple with James.
