10 Things WWE Fans Need To Know About Rosa Mendes

7. Her First Victory Came Against The Bella Twins

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ufsKsbEmso There is no denying the fact that Brie and Nikki Bella are the real stars of Total Divas. Sure, there are other girls involved with the show and they have their own impressive fan followings but the entire reality program was meant to be a star vehicle for the twin sisters and that is exactly what it has been since its debut last September. Rosa's debut on the show was meant to bring yet another story to the show, though not at the expense of the Bella Twins. It is funny, then, that Rosa's first televised victory came in a match against the Bellas. Teamed with on-screen idol Beth Phoenix, Rosa defeated Brie and Nikki in a Monday Night Raw tag match. Sure, Phoenix recorded the pinfall victory but that is not what is most important. The win was the first of her main roster career and that it came against the Bellas was that much more special. Especially in hindsight.
