WWE Hall of Famer JBL discussed the real-life heat between former stars Queen Sharmell and Melina. He confirmed that they did have legitimate backstage heat during their time with the Stamford-based company.Sharmell was managing her husband, Booker T, during that time, while Melina was a member of MNM, which included Joey Mercury and John Morrison. In 2006, the two women got into an altercation backstage, and it was reported that JBL intervened and separated them.During a recent Q&A session on the Something to Wrestle podcast, John Bradshaw Layfield was asked about the incident and whether he remembered separating a fight between Sharmell and Melina. He said they had heat but couldn’t recall if he did.鈥淭hey had heat. They had real heat,鈥 JBL stated. 鈥淏ut I don鈥檛 remember that. I don鈥檛 remember if they were ever separated. At one point, there was real heat, real heat between those two and several other things.鈥滺e clarified that he doesn’t think he broke up the fight:鈥淵es, I don鈥檛 think I broke it up,鈥 he said. 鈥淣ow I may have separated them. I do remember times where there was some confrontations, and I was there, so I could have been the one that stepped in between. That part certainly could be true. Maybe it鈥檚 not a fight, maybe it鈥檚 more of a confrontation.” (H/T WrestlingNewsCo)JBL says AJ Styles is a modern-day version of Shawn MichaelsThe Wrestling God heaped praise on RAW Superstar AJ Styles during his appearance on Stories with Brisco and Bradshaw.
