When I saw Melina available for photo-ops, I literally ditched my friends to get in line. Not because it was simply an opportunity to take a photo with random diva tits and ass (although I was hoping to have gotten to get such a photo with the Bella Twins), but because I genuinely am a fan of Melina the wrestler. She’s a hard worker in the ring, and naturally, I do find her pretty. But the moment I decided I was a fan of Melina, was how she handled an embarrassing mistake.
Female wrestlers have it rough. Whereas Billy Kidman can practically kill a guy with a botched Shooting Star Press and get to show up at Nitro the next week, if a diva completely botches something, typically, she’s deemed needing more practice and sent down to OVW, or now FCW for refresher training. The fans are merciless in those cases too, with “you fucked up” chants typically reverberating throughout arenas. One only needs to look up “Jackie Gayda” to see just how bad this could be.
