Victoria was encouraged to become a WWE wrestler following a chance meeting with then-WWF Women's Champion Chyna. A former female body-builder, Victoria was used to training hard and testing her limits. She trained in WWE developmental for several years, making her on-screen debut in 2000 as one of Godfather's 'hos'. But bigger things were destined for Victoria. Following her proper debut in 2002, she had several hard-hitting battles with Trish Stratus including a pretty brutal hardcore match for the Women's Championship at Survivor Series. Victoria has a reputation in wrestling for being able to hang with anyone and isn't afraid of being hurt. A real team player, she had to wrestle with the support of a knee brace for many years and became used to ignoring serious pain.
