Michelle Leigh McCool aka Michelle biography

Real biography: Michelle Leigh McCool (born January 25, 1980, Palatka, Florida) is an American professional wrestler currently working for World Wrestling Entertainment on the SmackDown! brand. Before becoming involved in professional wrestling, she was a seventh grade teacher in Palatka, Florida. McCool received her Masters degree in Educational Leadership from Florida State University.

Michelle McCool first came to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) as a competitor in the 2004 WWE Diva Search, from which she was the 4th woman eliminated. Despite not winning the contest, she was still signed to a 3-year contract in November 2004. She debuted on SmackDown! as a face with a personal trainer gimmick, a reference to her actual past employment. Unlike most of the other "Rookie Divas" who participated in the Diva Search, McCool aimed to become an actual professional wrestler.

She returned to SmackDown! on June 2, 2006, this time working as a heel with a "hot teacher" gimmick, again pulling on her real life experiences. Upon her arrival, she aligned with Kristal to feud with then-faces Jillian Hall and Ashley. This led to a Fatal Four Way Bra and Panties match at The Great American Bash, which Ashley won. She won her first singles match on the July 28 edition of SmackDown!, defeating Hall by illegally using the ropes as leverage.

Soon after, she began acting as valet for the team of K. C. James and Idol Stevens, who, because of her association with them, were nicknamed The Teacher's Pets. The trio began feuding with Paul London and Brian Kendrick, and their valet Ashley, for the WWE Tag Team Championship, but never won the title. The feud ended when London and Kendrick won the blow off match at No Mercy in October.

On November 28, McCool was hospitalized with an enlarged kidney, a broken sternum, and an electrolyte imbalance. During her absence, both James and Stevens were sent back to OVW. She was released from the hospital on December 2.

McCool returned on the March 30, 2007 edition of SmackDown!, where she participated in a 10-Diva Tag Team Match. On the April 13 edition of SmackDown!, McCool turned face once again when she came to the aid of Ashley after she was attacked by Jillian Hall backstage; this led to a short feud between herself and Hall, where McCool came out on top. On the May 28 edition of RAW, Michelle won the Memorial Day Bikini Beach Splash Battle Royal by eliminating Melina.

After Victoria had her "blow off" match with Torrie Wilson, she immediately began another feud with Michelle. A series of matches took place, including a Mixed Tag Team match with Chuck Palumbo as her partner and Kenny Dykstra as Victoria's partner, with Michelle coming out on top.

Michelle competed in the Survivor Series 10-Diva Tag Team match, teaming with Mickie James, Kelly Kelly, Maria and Torrie, to defeat the team of Beth Phoenix, Melina, Layla, Jillian, and Victoria. Her team won after James pinned Melina.

Michelle has been, as of late, caught in the middle of a feud between Jamie Noble and her 'friend' Chuck Palumbo. Noble made advances towards Michelle and defeated Palumbo in two straight matches. Michelle agreed to go on a date with him if he won a third match against Chuck; Michelle tried to distract Noble during the match by removing her top, but this only served to help him get the pin.
