While Carmella and Naomi didn't know each other before crossing paths in the WWE, they do share a similar background in terms of what they used to do before getting into the business: They were both initially cheerleaders.

Former WWE Smackdown Live Women's Champion, Naomi, was the cheerleader for her hometown team, The Orlando Magic, while Carmella got herself a gig with American football giants, The New England Patriots.

While Naomi moved onto being a backup dancer for rapper Flo Rida, Carmella moved over to basketball, becoming a Laker Girl for the Los Angeles Lakers. Eventually, both women found their calling in professional wrestling and made the move over the WWE.
