#2 WWE RAW Superstar Lana wanted to become a ballerina

Current WWE RAW Superstar Lana began her career wanting to become a ballerina. The star spent time living in Lativa as a youngster. While living there, she even studied to become a ballerina and went to Riga Choreography School (the ballet school of the Latvian National Opera). She even danced with the Latvian National Ballet at just 14 years of age.

A few years later, Lana and her family moved back to the United States, and she continued her dance career. She even danced in music videos for huge stars such as Keri Hilson and Pink and was part of a girl band before transitioning into acting with a role in the popular film franchise Pitch Perfect.

Shortly after this, Lana signed to WWE and became the manager of her now real-life husband Rusev (now known as Miro in AEW).

Most recently, Lana has been established as a singles star following the departure of Rusev from WWE and has been involved in a bullying storyline with Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler. At the moment, Lana is out of action following an attack from the pair on an episode of RAW.
