– On Wednesday, WWE filmed SmackDown Women’s Champion Carmella for a “great project” coming out later this year.

Joey Maloney, who handles producing, directing and cinematography on a wide range of features for WWE’s digital platforms, posted this behind-the-scenes photo of Carmella from the video shoot.



With SmackDown taking place the night before in Manchester, New Hampshire, the shoot was apparently for a documentary-style video where Carmella returns to her hometown in the New England area. On her Instagram Story, she posted videos with her parents earlier in the day. Carmella also posted photos visiting her old dance school.

So cool. I remember @CarmellaWWE talking about her dance school and teacher on @LilianGarcia's Chasing Glory podcast. pic.twitter.com/UwLBi2TtEV

It’s funny, when asked who should play me in a movie (which of course will never happen) I always say Kristin Stewart…
However, if it was a wrestler playing me,@SonyaDevilleWWE is perfection!

You could have chosen from a million people, well not a million, but.. you get it… Anyway, you chose me, and I am humbled & honored.
Thank you!
