5 female wrestlers who have had a troubled past

#4 Alexa Bliss

The Goddess Of WWE

Everyone knows "Little Miss Bliss" as the dominant force she is today. But many people might not realize she had to overcome a pretty serious problem early on in life.

While in high school, Alexa was a multi-sport athlete and took her training very seriously. She soon became a cheerleader at the University of Akron where she developed a rather concerning eating disorder.

She dropped forty pounds at one point in just over six weeks. She attacked her problem head on and still speaks about this issue today. She recently opened up about her battles with eating disorders on a mini-documentary for WWE's YouTube channel.

It's great to know she's doing much better now. But there was a time when things weren't so easy for "The Five Feet Of Fury".
