5 Facts you need to know about WWE star Melina 

#3. Melina once auditioned for Tough Enough

Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose have come through Tough Enough to be part of WWE, and the same could be said for Melina. The former Women's Champion auditioned for Tough Enough back in 2002 and was able to make it through to the final 21 before being eliminated in the first episode.

Of course, this didn't stop Melina from going on to pursue her dream of becoming a female wrestler, since Al Snow encouraged her to continue training and she later appeared at OVW back in 2004.

Melina was then able to climb through the ranks in what was WWE's developmental brand at that time and made her debut on WWE TV the following year as the manager of MNM.

Much like Zelina Vega, who has been seen alongside Andrade, Melina was able to guide MNM to a number of Tag Team Championships before John Morrison went solo and Melina became his manager alone.

When the two stars went their separate ways, Melina was prepared to make an impact in the women's division.
