10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Oct 23)

10. Molly Holly Viewed Herself As 'Enhancement Talent'

When pro wrestling fans discuss the best Divas in WWF/WWE history, Molly Holly is rarely a name that comes up. Working for the company from 2000-2005, Molly captured the WWF Women's Title on 2 different occasions. In addition to that, she is also a former WWF Hardcore Champion, capturing the belt under the old '24/7' ruling at WrestleMania X-8 during a backstage segment. Initially, Molly was introduced as the cousin of both Hardcore and Crash Holly. It was only when she was aligned with The Hurricane later that she started to move away from that character. From there, Holly carved her own career, and was well-regarded as a fine wrestler in the Diva division. In her own opinion however, her role was one designed solely to make others look good. That's something the female was content with, because she was happy with her in-ring work. To this day, the reasons why she left WWE have remained private, but it's pretty fascinating to find out how humble Molly Holly is. Most wrestlers are prone to bragging or self-aggrandisement, but Holly maintains that she is ill-deserving of a slot in the WWE Hall Of Fame, because she was enhancement talent.
