At one time, there was a wealth of talent in Florida Championship Wrestling, the developmental territory for WWE prior to the advent of NXT. AJ Lee, Serena Deeb, Kaitlyn, Maxine, Summer Rae and Paige honed their craft there before debuting on WWE television. During her time there, Naomi was one of the premiere women on the roster, an exciting and dynamic performer who captivated audiences with her leaping ability and unconventional offense. Thus, it was no surprise when she advanced to the finals of the FCW Divas Championship Tournament. Her opponent? Straight Edge Society member Serena, who had to have been a favorite to win the entire thing based on her status in WWE. Naomi picked up the win, emerged with the title and became the top star in the Divas division.
