“I’ve done this for such a long time where that kind of gets lost on me, and you kind of lose that passion for it,” Gargano said. “But you get it right back the minute you see how much someone loves this. You see the love in their eyes they have for this.”

Both will also visit Walt Disney World on their honeymoon and will be back in June for the USA Games, with their entire WWE family behind them.
