Mindie McCullum

Melinda Midajah McCullum, widely recognized as Midajah, is an accomplished American personal trainer, fitness model, and former professional wrestling manager. Her notable presence in the wrestling world primarily stems from her time with World Championship Wrestling (WCW) from 1999 to 2001.

In 1994, McCullum earned her certification in personal training and nutrition, launching a successful career as a fitness trainer with various organizations. She also represented a bodybuilding supplement company, making appearances at trade shows and other events. From 1997 to 2000, she graced the covers of prestigious fitness magazines, including Iron Man, MuscleMag, and Muscular Development.

Her introduction to the wrestling arena came in 1999, thanks to her agent Rich Minzer, who connected her with Terry Taylor of WCW. Shortly after, she joined the promotion as a valet for the New World Order (nWo) stable. McCullum debuted in the ring in 2000, after training at the WCW Power Plant, and was part of a group dubbed the nWo Girls. She later became the primary valet for Scott Steiner, who referred to her and her partner as his “Freaks.” McCullum's tenure concluded with her appearance on the final episode of Nitro in 2001.

After WCW's acquisition by WWE, she continued to thrive in the fitness industry and participated in competitions. In 2002, she joined World Wrestling All-Stars (WWA), where she showcased her wrestling skills, winning several matches. Beyond her wrestling career, McCullum is fluent in Spanish and has worked as an interpreter. A child actress and beauty pageant participant, she is the eldest of four siblings and has a diverse heritage, including Norwegian, Irish, Spanish, and French roots.
