What Former WWE Talent Shaniqua Is Doing Now Revealed

Shaniqua (real name Linda Miles) is long gone from WWE and what the former manager is doing now has been revealed.

Speaking during a K&S WrestleFest virtual signing, Mark Henry revealed that he had spoken to Linda Miles recently and she is now the principal of a school in her hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio. 

"I called Linda Miles the other day, yesterday after I - yeah (I still talk to her). She's a principal in Cincinnati," Henry said.

Miles signed with WWE in 2002 after winning the second season of Tough Enough along with Jackie Gayda. She briefly managed Shelton Benjamin before Miles was repackaged and returned as Shaniqua, the dominatrix manager of the Basham Brothers. Shaniqua helped Doug and Danny Basham become WWE Tag Team Champions through her interference but she disappeared from WWE TV after she and the Bashams lost to Rikishi and Scotty 2 Hotty at No Way Out 2004. Miles was sent back to OVW and then released in November 2004. 

Following her WWE exit, Miles had one match for Toryumon in 2005 against Nidia before she stepped away from professional wrestling to become a college basketball referee. When Miles became a school principal is unknown.  

Shaniqua explained in 2018 why she left pro wrestling, telling WCPO 9 News: "They're all feeding these egos you have. If that's not you, you sit back and say 'I'm not into these crowds.'"

Mark Henry, the man who revealed what Shaniqua is doing in 2024, recently exited All Elite Wrestling.
