Every Original WWE NXT Black & Gold Roster Member - Where Are They Now?

42. Tamina Snuka

What was she doing at the time?

Tamina Snuka was successful in a singles contest against Kaitlyn on the fifth edition of NXT to emanate from Full Sail University. A win's a win, but this one was routinely traded between both women on this and every other WWE show. The two were in countless singles and tags on the house show loop via dropping down to developmental, and the reps didn't exactly help them move up the card. It was another year before she found what truly fit - as a heater for AJ Lee during her (very fondly remembered) stranglehold of the Divas title, Snuka was a surprisingly effective silence-and-violence monster. 

What is she doing now?

Still wrestling with WWE, though as of 2026, not literally. She remains signed with the company but hasn't wrestled since February 2023, hasn't appeared on a Premium Live Event since the Royal Rumble days before that, and there's been no notable on or off-screen explanation as to why. WWE removed her from the active roster in 2024, but in featuring in the likes of 2K games, action figure lines and/or any company marketing, she remains a presence a full decade and a half after she first debuted.
