For those of you who may not be aware, the Straightedge lifestyle is one that abstains from drinking, smoking or drug use.

In WWE, it is most commonly associated with CM Punk, who in 2010 formed his own society of loyal devotees to him and straightedge.

Not long into the group though, Serena Deeb, the only female member of the time was fired from the company.

This was because Deeb was only playing a straightedge character, and in real life enjoyed a drink, and was spotted several times doing just that.

Whilst she was fired from WWE, Deeb refused to let this be the end of her, and after years on the indies, returned as part of the inaugural Mae Young Classic, before signing as a trainer at the WWE Performance Center.
