10 Women's Wrestlers That Were Better Off Without WWE
8. Lena Yada
All right, so the name Lena Yada might not ring many bells, likely because she wasn't around in WWE for very long, at least on TV. She participated in the 2005 and 2007 Diva Searches, and although she was unsuccessful on both occasions, she was signed to a contract the second time anyway. She worked primarily as a backstage interviewer for the ECW brand throughout 2008 and was released from the company one week removed from her official in-ring debut that November.
It wasn't until years later that she resurfaced in Lucha Underground as Black Lotus, a character determined to avenge the death of her parents. Although she never appeared before the live crowd in Season 1 or Season 2, she wrestled her premier match for the promotion at Ultima Lucha Dos against Dragon Azteca Jr. It soon became apparent why she was never utilized as a wrestler in WWE because the bout was below-average.
While her wrestling skills were never her strongest suit, Yada was an extremely attractive girl, and it was a mystery why she was let go from the organization. That said, she is already ten times more relevant in Lucha Underground, showing that there was much more to her than met the eye during her ECW stint.
