We were originally introduced to the adorable Molly Holly as a cousin of the Holly family. She began a tragic Romeo and Juliet type storyline with Spike Dudley, with her cousins feuding with his brothers, The Dudley Boyz. In the end, their love wasn't strong enough and she turned into a superhero.

She joined forces with The Hurricane to fight crime in WWE, until the allure of the Hardcore title was too strong to ignore. She ended their entertaining team when she hit him over the head with a frying pan at WrestleMania 18.

After the brand split, she was no longer Mighty, she became a bit more conservative. Molly dyed her hair, and went to war with the Divas division, as she didn’t like the sexual content running rampant at the time. Ultimately, she was unsuccessful in her quest to make the division pure, but she did enjoy multiple runs with the Women’s Championship.

Ultimately, while the brand split completely changed her moral compass, it was a good change for her career.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
