Melina Perez recently spoke to the Huffington Post at length about her character and how she was perceived backstage in WWE.

Perez is currently the Women’s Champion for revered UK Independent promotion Southside and another top UK star has taken to Twitter to vent his (and other’s) frustrations on the former WWE star’s alleged attitude backstage.

Ryan Smile is the current reigning Over The Top Champion and has performed on several high profile cards across the UK this year, including shows for Southside. He posted the following on Twitter:
