Alexis Nicole Lete (born October 30, 1996) [1] is an American volleyball player, model, professional wrestler, and beauty pageant titleholder. In 2020, Lete was crowned Miss Indiana USA. She was previously signed by WWE as a tryout.
Lete was born in Louisville, Kentucky on October 30, 1996, to Vicki and Zary Lete. She has one brother, Luke. [2] [3] She graduated from New Albany High School as a valedictorian, and graduated from George Washington University with a degree in broadcast journalism and communications. [4]
Before taking an interest in volleyball, Lete played soccer, but she later decided to take up club volleyball in seventh grade, which led to her joining the Kentucky Indiana Volleyball Association (KIVA). [2] [5] She then played in the NCAA Division I program during her time at George Washington University. [6] [7]
In October 2018, Lete walked the runway during the D.C. Fashion Week at the finale show at the Embassy of France in Washington, D.C. [8] Two years later, in October 2020, she was crowned Miss Indiana USA , and was the third overall runner-up for the Miss USA , making the top five nationally. [9] [10]
In March 2022, Lete was one of the 45 college athletes to have attended a three-day WWE tryout during WrestleMania 38 weekend. [11] In August 2022, it was announced that Lete had reported to the WWE Performance Center. [12] [13] During her time in WWE, Lete was noted to have mispronounced certain WWE terms, such as referring to Solo Sikoa as "Solo Sikoma" and the NXT North American Championship as the "Northern American" Championship. [14] In November 2023, Roxanne Perez announced that Lete is no longer in WWE in an Instagram comment. [15] A month later, Lete confirmed that she was no longer with WWE. She said that a lack of passion with wrestling and the potential injuries, citing that someone in the company telling her that getting injured is "part of the job" after receiving a potential concussion in a live match, resulted in her planning to quit WWE when she received word that she has been released. Lete said that she was grateful of her time in WWE and that WWE is helping her to get on a reality show. [16]
Lete holds the Guinness World Record for the furthest volleyball set into a basketball hoop. [17] She takes an interest in cryptocurrency, having previously hosted her own now-defunct podcast titled "Crypto Cast". [18] [19]
