The Many Shades of 11 Top Women in the WWE

#8 Carmella

WWE's Barbie Doll

Real Name: Leah Van Dale

Born: October 23, 1987

Carmella has played the roles of manager and wrestler for the WWE, as well as worked as a model and a dancer, which may be lesser known to the WWE fans. Carmella was the SmackDown woman’s champion from 2017-2018 after which she lost the title to Charlotte. She was Ranked No. 7 of the top 50 female singles wrestlers in the PWI Female 50 in 2018.

Carmella won the Money in the Bank ladder match for the first time at Money in the Bank, however, because of a controversial finish at the event she was stripped of the briefcase only two days after winning it.

A rematch was scheduled for June 27th episode of SmackDown Live, where Carmella won, officially becoming the inaugural winner of the women's Money in the Bank ladder match. The interesting fact to note is that WWE recognizes Carmella as a two-time Money in the Bank winner.

Apart from the ring, Carmella is also known for her many accomplishments in dancing. She graduated from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth in 2010 and was a cheerleader for the New England Patriots for three seasons, ending in 2010.

She successfully auditioned for the Los Angeles Lakers dance team, appearing as a Laker Girl during the 2010–2011 season.
