By: qaswer

Melina Nava Perez (born March 9, 1979), better known simply as Melina, is an American professional wrestler currently signed to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) wrestling on its Raw brand.

After becoming interested in wrestling, Melina joined the independent professional wrestling circuit before ultimately joining WWE in 2004. Initially, she was pushed as a manager for the tag team of MNM. She managed them to a record three reigns as WWE Tag Team Champions, as well as managed former boyfriend and MNM member Johnny Nitro to two reigns as WWE Intercontinental Champion.

Melina made her WWE singles debut in 2005. She is a two-time former WWE Women's Champion, winning the belt twice in 2007.

Perez began her career as a model. She won a Miss California beauty contest and also modeled athletic wear for Nike. She decided to become a professional wrestler after talking to Empire Wrestling Federation (EWF) superstar Mike Henderson in 2000. Perez started training at Jesse Hernandez's School of Hard Knocks in San Bernardino, California and made her professional debut in April 2002. She joined a number of California-based promotions such as the EWF, where she wrestled under the ring name Kyra, and CRUSH, as Melanie Little Deer. Many EWF officials stated that she had the most natural ability of any woman who came through their school. In late 2002 Perez auditioned for World Wrestling Entertainment's reality show Tough Enough III, making it through to the final 21 before being eliminated from the competition in the final cut of the first episode. After being eliminated from the contest, trainer Al Snow pulled Perez aside and encouraged her to keep trying to pursue her dream as a wrestler.
