Outlook - One of the best females on the US Independent scene, "Cheerleader" Melissa has made some big steps since her run as the valet of the Ballard Brothers a very short time ago. She improving well in APW, where she was given opportunities rarely afforded to the women and she was proving herself well. Then she got a great opportunity when she was invited to ARISON to train in their dojo under Mariko Yoshida, one of the best wrestlers in the world. Melissa had some good showings with the company and developed even more. Now back in US with ARISON dead it will be interesting to see how she makes it to the next level. Melissa is a good-looking girl, but not a model. She is a good worker, but still learning her craft. She is a wrestler, not a spot-driven non-worker. The WWE seems unlikely, unless she can become a carrying heel and if not hopefully she'll able to return to Japan with whatever group will have her.
