For several of today's stars, they have earned their way competing on the independent wrestling circuit. Those that have and achieved success in the WWE are to be applauded. However, for several men and women, their training and development early on came from other areas of sports, whether it be powerlifting or football, and wrestling wasn't their first area of development.

This is the case of Alexa Bliss. The former Women's Champion has continued to show her athleticism in the ring since her debut in NXT. She has said that her sports experience came from competitive fitness. Bliss played other sports such as baseball when she was younger.
