Quick Facts

Age & Body Measurements

The entertainment world feeds on the information on celebrity gossip and news about them. WWE fans swarmed the star when Corban’s relationship with Rochelle Roman broke out in public.

Rochelle Roman found the media limelight immediately as her relationship progressed with the WWE star.

Born on August 29, 1991, she is 32 years at the moment. Her star sign happens to be Virgo, known for their smartness and logical thinking and is deemed a perfectionist.

Likewise, Roman stands at the height of 5 feet 5 inches (1.65 meters) and weighs around 58 kg (128 pounds).

With that being said, the celebrity wife has a toned body that looks petite next to her muscular husband.

Roman dons her long, light brown hair and black eyes with her fair skin. No wonder Corbin fell for her charms.

Early Life & Education

Unlike other celebrities, Roman is not exactly ecstatic about being in the media, surrounded by cameras and paparazzi. Hence, despite being a familiar name among WWE fans, she is somewhat of a mystery.

Rochelle was born to her parents, Carlos Roman and Ivonne Roman, in Puerto Rico. In an interview with the Insider, Baron revealed his wife’s home country.

There is no available information about her parents besides their names. We were unable to get our hands on information about her siblings, whether she grew up with one or not.

As for her education, there is no mention of her academics and university. But sources claim that she is a licensed registered nurse in Florida.

Now, talking about her marriage, it is no secret that Rochelle is married to WWE star Baron Corbin.

Their relationship was the reason why Roman achieved her fame. However, the two kept their relationship low-key, and only a few people knew about their relationship.

Hence, not much is known about it. For starters, the exact time and date they started dating is still a matter of discussion to many.

However, it seems the two kindled their romance way before, probably when Corbin was still an NFL player. Many assume they met during Corbin’s treatment, followed by his injuries.

After dating for a few years, the two decided to take their relationship to the next level.

The lovebirds shared their vows in a private wedding ceremony in the presence of their close ones in Clearwater, Florida, on April 29, 2017. 

Moreover, adding to their happiness, they welcomed their first child, a daughter, Ryane Pestock, in 2019. 

The Pestock family welcomed another daughter, whose name and date of birth are yet to be known. But looking at Thomas’ Instagram, we can assume that she was born somewhere in the year 2022.

Amazingly, people could not help but notice Corbin shedding his tough exterior when seen together with his daughters.

Baron Corbin Dated Others Before Rochelle Roman

Dating is entirely reasonable when it comes to people of a certain age. And since Corbin used to play for NFL, he must have gotten plenty of attention.

Before he met the love of his life, Corbin used to date singer Maria Brink. The star is an American singer and songwriter, famous as the frontwoman of the American heavy metal band, In This Moment. 

Similarly, Maria was awarded the “Rock Goddess of the Year” back in 2013 and 2015.

Despite being seven years older than Baron, the two dated for a while. Sadly, their relationship came to an end due to some differences.

WWE Star – Baron Corbin (Happy Corbin, King Corbin)

Thomas Pestock, aka Baron Corbin, is a famous professional wrestler who is also a former NFL player. During his football career, he played as an offensive lineman for the Indianapolis Colts and Arizona Cardinals.

Baron Corbin‘s Early Career

Many might not know this, but Baron initially did not plan to be a wrestler. Athletically built, Corbin was an amateur boxer, and by 2007, he won two Golden Gloves regional amateur boxing champion.

In August 2012, Baron signed with WWE’s developmental system NXT and officially started his professional career as a wrestler.

Corbin made his debut on October 18 at a house show attended by his then-girlfriend.

Rise To Prominence

During his time with the NXT, Baron won many awards and titles despite being a villainous character most of the time.

Corbin won the highly anticipated one-on-one match on January 14, 2015. At that time, he broke the Bull Dempsey’s undefeated streak making a name for himself.

Baron even won the 2017 Money in the Bank men’s ladder match, receiving praise and criticism for his work in the Raw.

Be it his successful or unsuccessful attempts, Baron sure has become a famous name in the WWE.

Baron changed his stage name to King Corbin and was drafted to the SmackDown brand in 2019.

Corbin appeared in different episodes of SmackDown, and in 2021, he demanded to be called ‘Happy Corbin.’ Most of his SmackDown fights resulted in a loss.

Under the name Baron Corbin, he made his return to Raw on October 17, 2022, Hall of Famer JBL, and defeated Dolph Ziggler.

On January 28, 2023, Corbin got eliminated within 7 seconds in the Royal Rumble match.

Moreover, Baron has credited some of the figures like Bill DeMott, Billy Gunn, Corey Graves, Kane, and Dusty Rhodes for polishing his wrestling skills.

Besides wrestling, Baron made his video game debut in Madden NFL 12 under his real name. He later appeared in other games like WWE 2K16, WWE 2K17, WWE 2K18, WWE 2K19, and WWE 2K20.

• “I don’t envy people with long hair. So, I’m glad mine is gone.”
• “Billy Gunn, Bill DeMott, and Dusty Rhodes all helped me find myself, and how to express it to people so they understand.”
• “My dad brought me up not to accept second place. I lost a karate tournament once and got a trophy for fourth place. My dad tossed that trophy out the window on the way home.”
• “If you’re in my way, you’re done.”
• “I’ve always been a guy – I ran my mouth in NXT about the little guys who come through, and they are tough and feisty or whatever it is. To me, they’re no more dangerous than a little chihuahua.”
• “Growing up, I idolized Big Boss Man and Bam Bam Bigelow just because they were big guys who could move and were tough. I felt like they both rode motorcycles. And Bam Bam had his head tattooed. Those are the guys who really got me into wrestling.”
• “There’s a great feeling when you look in someone’s eyes, and they have that ‘look of defeat,’ and that’s what I’m looking for, and that’s my game plan.”
• “I’m the real deal.
• “That attitude, that persona I carry, is something I’ve always had with me. I mean, that’s what made me successful, especially in football, and is making me successful now.”
