Trinity Fatu[6] (née McCray; born November 30, 1987)[7] is an American professional wrestler and dancer. She is signed to WWE, where she performs on the SmackDown brand under the ring name Naomi.

In August 2009, Fatu signed with WWE. She was assigned to its former developmental territory, Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW), where she was the inaugural FCW Divas Champion. In August 2010, she competed in the all-female third season of NXT, where she finished in second place. She then made her main roster debut alongside Cameron as The Funkadactyls in January 2012. From 2014 to 2015, she was an on-screen manager for The Usos (Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso). As a solo competitor, Naomi held the SmackDown Women's Championship two times. With Sasha Banks, she obtained the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship in 2022. A month later, Naomi and Banks received indefinite suspensions from WWE after the two walked out due to a creative dispute. In 2023, Fatu stated she had departed the company and later performed as part of Total Nonstop Action (TNA) Wrestling, where she was a former TNA Knockouts World Champion. She returned to WWE in January 2024 at the Royal Rumble event.

Outside of wrestling, Naomi danced for the basketball team the Orlando Magic as well as rapper Flo Rida. She appeared as one of the main cast members of WWE's reality television series Total Divas from 2013 to 2019 and acted in the 2017 film The Marine 5: Battleground.

Trinity McCray[8] was born in Sanford, Florida.[9] She graduated from Oviedo High School.[3] Before starting a career in wrestling, she was one of the dancers for the basketball team the Orlando Magic. She also starred as a background dancer for rapper Flo Rida.[5]

Professional wrestling career

World Wrestling Entertainment/WWE (2009–2022)

Developmental territories (2009–2011)

In August 2009, McCray signed a contract with WWE, where she reported to their then-developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW).[10] On June 20, 2010, Naomi defeated Serena Deeb on FCW TV to become the inaugural FCW Divas Champion.[11] On the August 29 episode of FCW TV, Naomi competed in a match against AJ Lee, where both the Queen of FCW title and the FCW Divas Championship were on the line, which ended in a double count-out.[12] Naomi joined the all-female third season of NXT in 2010, with Kelly Kelly as her pro.[13] Naomi debuted on the September 7 episode of NXT, where she teamed with Kelly to defeat Alicia Fox and fellow rookie Maxine after Naomi pinned Maxine.[14] On the September 21 episode of NXT, she teamed with Kelly and Jamie Keyes, defeating Layla, Michelle McCool, and Kaitlyn.[15] On the October 26 episode of NXT, Naomi defeated Maxine in a singles match.[16] On November 30, Naomi lost the competition to Kaitlyn, placing second in the season.[17] On the January 23, 2011, Naomi lost the championship to Lee on FCW TV.[18]

The Funkadactyls (2012–2014)

On January 9, 2012, Naomi made her main roster debut on Raw alongside Cameron as valets for Brodus Clay, with the duo dubbed The Funkadactyls.[19] On the TLC pre-show on December 16, Naomi scored a victory in a Santa's Little Helpers battle royal, earning a match against Divas Champion Eve Torres later that night, where she lost.[20][21] On the March 15, 2013, episode of SmackDown, The Funkadactyls were attacked backstage by The Bella Twins.[22] The Funkadactyls, Clay, and Tensai, collectively known as Tons of Funk, were originally set to face Team Rhodes Scholars (Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow) and the Bella Twins in an eight-person mixed tag team match at WrestleMania 29, but after the match was cut due to time constraints, it instead took place the following night on Raw, with Tons of Funk coming out victorious.[23]

On the August 26 episode of Raw, Naomi was ringside for a match between Natalya and Brie Bella alongside the cast of Total Divas, also including Cameron, Nikki Bella, Eva Marie, and JoJo Offerman, which ended with Divas Champion AJ Lee coming out and cutting a worked shoot promo directed at the women.[24] On the September 15, Naomi competed against Natalya, Brie Bella, and Lee in a fatal four-way match for the Divas Championship at Night of Champions, where Lee retained the title.[25] The cast of Total Divas went on to defeat Lee, Alicia Fox, Aksana, Kaitlyn, Rosa Mendes, Tamina Snuka, and Summer Rae in a traditional elimination tag team match at Survivor Series.[26] On December 15 at TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs, Naomi, Cameron and Tensai abandoned Clay due to his attitude.[27]

On the April 13 episode of Raw, Naomi unsuccessfully competed in a battle royal to determine the number one contender to the Divas Championship.[43] After the bout, Naomi attacked Paige for eliminating her to ultimately win the match, turning heel.[44] As Paige had been injured by the attack,[45] Naomi was granted a match against Bella for the title at Extreme Rules,[46] where she failed to win after interference from Brie Bella.[47] In May, Naomi attacked The Bella Twins alongside the returning Tamina.[48] The duo went on to compete in a tag team match against The Bella Twins at Payback, during which Naomi and Tamina won.[49] On the May 18 episode of Raw, Naomi competed in another championship match against Nikki Bella, where Bella retained the title after Tamina caused a disqualification, and was subsequently followed by Paige's return.[50] Naomi then competed in a triple threat match against Paige and Nikki Bella at Elimination Chamber, however once again she failed to capture the title.[51]

On the July 13 episode of Raw, after weeks of the Divas division being dominated by The Bella Twins and their ally Alicia Fox, Stephanie McMahon called for a "Divas Revolution", subsequently introducing the debuting NXT Women's Champion Sasha Banks to align with Naomi and Tamina, dubbed Team B.A.D., as well as Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch to align with Paige, leading to a brawl between the three teams.[52][53][54] The three teams faced off in a three team elimination match on August 23 at SummerSlam, which was won by Team PCB.[55] At the 2015 Tribute to the Troops in December, Team B.A.D. and Paige defeated Brie Bella, Charlotte, Fox, and Lynch in an eight-woman tag team match.[56] On the February 1, 2016, episode of Raw, Banks left the team, which caused Naomi and Tamina to attack her.[57] Naomi and Tamina later lost to Banks and Lynch in a tag team match at Fastlane.[58] On the WrestleMania 32 pre-show, Naomi and Tamina teamed up with Lana, Emma, and Summer Rae in a 10-Diva tag team match against Brie Bella, Paige, Fox, Eva Marie, and Natalya, where Naomi's team was defeated.[59] In early May, Naomi became inactive due to a torn ankle tendon.[60]
