• Maven Reveals How WCW Veteran Ruined Kissing Torrie Wilson For Him

Former WWE Superstar Maven shared an uncomfortable memory from his time working with Torrie Wilson in the early 2000s. Speaking on his YouTube channel, he described how a scripted kiss with Torrie was made awkward by her then-husband, WCW Veteran Billy Kidman, who was present during the shoot. Maven and Torrie were part of WWE’s main roster between 2001 and 2005. In one storyline segment, they had to film a kiss. But behind the camera stood Kidman—Wilson’s real-life husband at the time.

“Torrie’s husband Billy, well, he was literally behind the camera while we were filming this,” Maven said. “I think we took three or four takes of this, but every time we would get down with the take, and they would yell cut, he would say, ‘Maven, how does my d**k taste?’”

“For anyone who thinks that even that was enjoyable,” Maven added, “that’s an easy way to ruin it.”

Torrie Wilson and Billy Kidman had been together since their WCW days and tied the knot in 2003. They eventually divorced in 2008.
