WWE goes crush at workplace: Workplace romance hasn’t been a thing of today. It has always been doing the rounds since the beginning of time and has seen countless colleagues take the professional relationship a notch higher and turn it into something for life.
While a few have come close to making that for life part but due to some obligation or the other, they remained confined in the bounds of being just ‘crushes’ instead of being the full-blown lover that would always motivate you to go out of the line.
