10 Coolest Day Jobs Of WWE Stars Before They Made It

4. Layla Was A Dancer For The Miami Heat

The WWE Divas division has been under fire for many years. A great number of fans argue that the women's ranks have not been the same since the days of Trish versus Lita and that criticism has been lingering in the company for a very long time. While many Divas continue to try and fit in, the life just seems to come naturally to others. This could not be more true than for Layla, who has definitely earned the respect of fans all over the world. Even the most ardent critics of the Divas division cannot deny her athleticism and her talent every time she gets into the ring. Of course, she did have a job before WWE and that job required her to be very good on her feet. As a dancer for the NBA's Miami Heat, Layla entertained live crowds every night. She was very accustomed to making the fans smile, to pump them up for the game and it was that experience that surely helped prepare her for life in WWE. The Divas need to be comfortable in front of the fans, to be confident with every move they make and this defines Layla perfectly. She's so good on her feet that when she replaced Summer Rae as Fandango's dancing Diva, she fit the role much better than her predecessor ever did. It was her life as a dancer that allowed that to happen and gave her the WWE career she enjoys today.
