Added DiffLines:

* Though it's hardly a common pairing, one can find Wrestling/RandyOrton[=/=]Wrestling/JohnCena slash labeled "Centon". Here's hoping the bizarre [[CrackPairing Undertaker/Jeff Hardy]] shippers never come up with a portmanteau.
** "Shawnter" (Wrestling/ShawnMichaels[=/=]Wrestling/TripleH)
*** There's also "[=HHHBK=]" which is formed by smushing together HHH's initials with those of Shawn's RedBaron "The Heartbreak Kid". Those who ship [[FoeYayShipping Shawn Michaels/Bret Hart]] gave them a couple of similar portmanteau couple names; some use "[=HHBK=]" (this time standing for Hitman/Heartbreak Kid), while others use "[=BHBK=]" (playing on the fact that "Hart" and "Heart" sound the same).
** "Huntista" (Wrestling/TripleH[=/=]Wrestling/{{Batista}})
** "Reytista" (Wrestling/ReyMysterioJr[=/=]Wrestling/Batista)
** "Codiase", or "Codiasi" as it's sometimes spelled, (Wrestling/CodyRhodes[=/=]Wrestling/TedDiBiaseJr) is becoming increasingly more common.
** "Junk" ([[FoeYayShipping Jeff Hardy/CM Punk]])
** "Slabriel" (Wrestling/HeathSlater[=/=]Wrestling/JustinGabriel)
** "Santikoz," "Vladtino", or "Koztino" (Wrestling/SantinoMarella[=/=]Wrestling/VladimirKozlov)
** "Punkicho" ([[FoeYayShipping CM Punk/Chris Jericho]])
** "Punkena" (Wrestling/CMPunk[=/=]John Cena)
* There is an official one of these for one of WWE's on-air couples; the pairing of Santino Marella and Wrestling/BethPhoenix (aka the Glamazon) is referred to by WWE itself as Glamarella.
** A portmanteau (Glamarella) based on a portmanteau! (Glamazon=glamourous + amazon).
* A less common name for the somewhat-canon couple (at least, in the latter's mind) of Wrestling/TrishStratus and Wrestling/MickieJames is "Trikie".
* Another canon one, tag team of Chris Jericho and Wrestling/BigShow, "Jerishow". They even have mixed music.
** Big Show later paired with Wrestling/TheMiz as [=ShoMiz=].
** Then Jericho and Miz teamed up again, and Jerimiz and Jiz became popular couple names. The team was too short lived to get a name.
* Another tag team example comes in the former team of Randy Orton (RKO), and Wrestling/{{Edge}} (Rated R Superstar), with Rated-RKO.
* Layla and Michelle [=McCool=] have formed the pairing of Wrestling/LayCool.
* The pairing of Wrestling/CMPunk and Wrestling/AJLee is often known as [=AJPunk=] or Punklee.
** Wrestling/AJLee and Wrestling/DolphZiggler ended up being Zigglee.
* The pairing of Wrestling/DeanAmbrose[=/=]Wrestling/SethRollins of Wrestling/TheShield is well established as Ambrollins. Pairing Ambrose with their other teammate, Wrestling/RomanReigns, gets us Ambreigns (which gets name-dropped in a hilarious fashion by Wrestling/TheNewDay on one of their promos), and pairing Rollins and Reigns together is Rolleigns. When shipped as a threesome, the team is known as Ambrolleigns.
* Wrestling/{{Hallowicked}} was [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00HgN6fOMhs&t=2s teamed]] with Australian female wrestler Shazza [=McKenzie=] in a loss to [[Wrestling/{{Kimber Lee}} Princess Kimberlee]] and The Whisper at ''Wrestling/{{CHIKARA}} La Loteria Letal 2018'', October 27, 2018. The crowd chanted "[=Shazmaldun=]" as a possible name for their team, combining Shazza's first name with Nazmaldun, the mysterious entity Hallowicked worships.
** Speaking of Kim, her team with [[Wrestling/RubyRiott Heidi Lovelace]] was called Team [=LoveLee=] in Beyond Wrestling.
** CHIKARA also gave us the trio of Hallowicked, Wrestling/{{Frightmare}} and [[Wrestling/MikeQuackenbush "Lightning" Mike Quackenbush]], which was called Team [=Frightning=].
* ''Website/DivaDirt'' dubbed Wrestling/GailKim and {{Wrestling/Melina}}, who teamed together a lot in 2009-2010 'Gail-Lina'.
* Wrestling/AliciaFox and Wrestling/{{Aksana}}, an alliance in 2013-2014 were 'Foxsana'.
