Aja Melissa

Growing Up in the business & Training
Aja's father is "Godzilla" DeMarcus Warren, a respected but tough techinical/submission wrestler that was also an avid high-flyer. A feat impressive because her father was over six feet tall. Her uncle is "Bloodbath" Phillip Warren, known for his hardcore matches all over Japan and Mexico. Aja starting traveling with her father on the road when she was two years old while her father worked the West Coast circuit and then when he joined the WWE (then known as the WWF) in July 1988. When she was eight years old, she expressed interest in becoming a wrestler, so with her father's permission she became an amateur wrestler. She wrestled in the amateur circuit and went to the North Carolina Amateur Wrestling Championship twice, place second both times. When she got restless of competing in the amateur ranks, she ask uncle what to do next and he arranged for her to try her hand at training at the New Dimension Wrestling School to become a professional wrestler. She trained with them for a year learning the basics moves and how to carry herself in a match. She later spent time training under her father and uncle's strict supervisions learning how the fight guys in the ring instead of females, telling her that, "If you can take down a guy of my size, then beating a female will be easy." He also taught Aja the inner workings of the business and breaking down the ring psychology that comes with being a professional wrestler. She then made her wrestling debut on February 8, 1997. It was then her father moved down to Atlanta to work the last couple of years of career in WCW and her father arranged for Aja to train with Chris Benoit and Dean Malenko. Aja has said in numerous interviews that she was glad to work with both of them because "They filled in all the blanks the training with her father & her uncle and New Dimension left out." During her training with Benoit & Malenko, she land up getting over her initially stage fright that had plagued her since she was a kid.

Indy Circuit
When Aja got older she started to wrestle up and down the east coast and Canada. Her adventures led her to Ohio Valley Wrestling where she got her first taste of the national spotlight when she was eighteen. She first made her debut in OVW on August 15, 2003 fighting Melissa Coates to a double countout. Her time at OVW ended a year and a half later when she was (kayfabe) blinded by Jillian Hall by some rubbing alcohol. She went on to wrestle over in Japan and Mexico under a mask calling herself "The Pink Panther" for nearly about nearly a year before she returned back to America to work Heat and dark matches for WWE and later put her talent to use fighting Tracy Brooks and Gail Kim in a triple threat match at a TNA house show on May 26, 2006 in Fayetteville, North Carolina. After working for a short period for TNA she later went on to wrestle for SHIMMER, Women's Extreme Wrestling (WEW), Naked Women Wrestling League (NWWL), Ring of Honor and Stampede Wrestling. Within this period she started to get contacted by the FWA to get come down to try-out to join the FWA roster. Once she finished her promised engagements for the other promotions, she contacted FWA to try-out for the company.

FWA
Aja was signed to FWA on Decemeber 11, 2006 and made her FWA debut beating Wanda Wells on December 16, 2007 at Winter Wonderland. Since her debut she has garned a feud with Brook and Raquel Wednesday over being the number one contender for the FWA Women's Championship. On January 12, 2008 the offical FWA website annouced that Aja would be posing for FHM.com and the pictures would be taken by a fellow FWA wrestler of the choosing. Mark Reynolds was picked and also was given a special interview on the website. On January 18, 2008 Aja lost a mud wreslting match to Raquel Wednesday in which it also came out that she joined Executive Excellence and confirmed internet rumors that she was dating "The Icon" Mark Reynolds. At Uncontrollable Chaos, Aja teamed up with Gabrielle to fight Brook and Raqeul Wednesday & Brook to a losing effort. She has since been named the number one contender for the FWA Women's Championship.

FWA Intro Promo
She walks around backstage. No one is around except for her and the cameraman.

"I'm guess they're all getting their beauty sleep. Oh well. They'll find out sooner than later who I am."

Looking around she continues,"Yeah i'm from America. The last country that can gloat about good wrestlers. But they're alot of them around. Slowly biding our time until people get sick of gimmicks and want substance. I came over here because I've heard about the female wrestlers. They're the best of the best. The cream of the crop. Well, i'm here to see if that's true. And if it's not..."

A sinster, evil grin comes to her face as she walks up close to the camera.

"...then I might be wearing some gold around my waist quicker than I expect. So remember this: you heard my promise. And I don't take failure nicely, so when Aja Melissa comes to the ring, You have two options: Either fight or get out of my way."

Holds up a piece of paper. "Let's see...I see about seven girls names on this list. That means seven women that will either let me win - the easy way or the hard way. Oh, I know what they're thinking i'm all about the glitz and glamour of the entertainment side of things but as usual among people, they're wrong."

"Don't let the cute face fool you. I'm all business. And business for me includes taking out a certain someone for her title. Name the match stipultation and i'll give you Match of the Year-quality every time I step into the ring. I have no fear about any match. One good thing about wrestling in America is that we have so many different kinds of matches to choose from"

Turns around to see some of the male wrestlers checking her out as she talks. "And knowing how I have gotten things done in the past. I won't be lonely much longer for my quest for the gold. So ladies, be forwarned. Your days of stepping in the ring just to be looking cute is over. Because i'm taking over."

And with that the screen goes black.

Reynolds High School in 2002 one the same day, but two hours later than her older sister (Aja graduated a year earlier than expected).
