Biography:
There are only three words that can define Michelle McCool: sexy, smart and vicious. She started her WWE career as a lovely fitness trainer but became a cunning sexy teacher who would do anything to lead her tag team K.C. James and Idol Stevens to victory. With the passage of time, she became the All-American Diva, who would become friendly with fans. McCool has impressed the WWE Universe with her great wrestling talent and vicious moves that even included to end the career of Victoria. She is a very dubious Diva who can do anything to win her matches and to keep a title around her waist, even to remove her partner Layla from her path.
