10 Most Poisonous Backstage Influences In WWE History

8. Melina

In short, there really weren't a lot of people that liked Melina backstage in WWE. Pretty quickly upon her arrival onto the main roster in 2005, the Diva started to rub folks the wrong way with her overall attitude and demeanour. Only Mick Foley has really been willing to stick up for her publicly, whereas numerous former WWE writers and wrestlers including Dave Batista have noted she was hard to work with. Melina's boyfriend, John Morrison often tried to stand up for his lover. At WrestleMania XXVII, Morrison teamed with Snooki and a returning Trish Stratus to face Dolph Ziggler, Michelle McCool and Layla. Incensed that Stratus had returned to the company and claimed 'her spot', Melina instructed Morrison not to cooperate with her. According to Trish, this came across loud and clear. Former WWE Diva Tiffany (now known as Tayrn Terrell) also once noted that company management went as far as to warn her about Melina before she signed with the organisation. As if that isn't enough, Melina would allegedly kick younger Divas out of the locker room to get changed, which is obviously preposterous. Maria Kanellis is another former peer who has been less-than-complimentary of Melina.
