9. The Rock And Trish Stratus
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opWrVY1BWXI It's not often that romantic relationships of the top wrestlers work out that well on-air. Besides Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth, most just fall flat. Case in point: The Rock and Trish Stratus. For months, Trish had been going through hell with Vince McMahon. He had embarrassed and degraded her in front of millions of fans. It got to the point where he was going to make her join the Kiss-My-Ass club. Luckily, The Rock stepped in at the last moment and saved her. To repay him for this, Trish gave him a kiss on the cheek. Rock then turned this nice gesture into a full-blown passionate kiss. Romance was in the air. The next week, the two were booked to take on The Dudley Boyz for the WWF Tag Titles but came up short. Rock was distracted by Test on the outside of the ring and Trish suffered a 3D. The week after that... well, it was pretty much forgotten. Maybe Trish was mad about that 3D, maybe they had dinner at a restaurant and things went bad when Rock ordered some pie. We'll never know, as WWE never bothered to tell us. Luckily for Trish, she found true love later with Chris Jericho...and then Christian... and then Viscera. Actually no, none of those worked out well either. Poor Trish.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
