Molly Holly was one of the most influential women to ever wrestle in WWE. Shrugging off the long-kept stereotype that female performers were only truly useful in scantily-clad outfits or as managers to their male counterparts and turning the womens division into a vibrant, electric battleground, Molly was a well trained competitor with technical nous far outweighing her often more popular opponents. Whether playing the sweet, innocent babyface or the aggressive, spiteful heel, Molly went about her job like a true pro and, despite winning two Womens titles during her time with the company, most never saw her as equal to Trish Status and Lita (both of whom have been inducted into the Hall of Fame). During a time when it was all about bloodshed and risqué storytelling, Molly Hollys character was the light in the darkness. While Stone Cold Steve Austin was offering up beer baths and middle fingers, Molly was tentatively holding hands with Spike Dudley or giving a hearty thumbs-up to her warring cousins. She was the antithesis of everything the Attitude Era stood for, the angel looking down on the destruction below. But how much do we really know about Nora Benshoof (née Greenwald)? Read on to find out which popular former WWE superstar trained her in the business, how she felt about playing portraying a villain and the vast amounts of charity work shes invested her time in post-WWE.
