– As noted, WWE NXT Diva Lina Fanene worked the May 9th NXT live event in Orlando, teaming with Devin Taylor and Dana Brooke to lose to Bayley, Carmella and Alexa Bliss. There is said to be potential with Lina, who is The Rock’s real cousin. Below is a photo of Lina, on the left, with Dana and Devin in Orlando:
