Christy Hemme

Born and raised in Temecula, CA,Christy Hemme is a hot! hot! hot! red-headed, vivacious, little bundle of sexuality, who was the winner of the first ever WWE Diva Search contest in September 2004.  Due to her popularity with WWE fans/voters, she beat out 9 other fine looking women for a WWE contract and $250,000! (OWOW picked her to win from week one and made more than one or two phone calls to vote!)

Asked in an interview if she would rather be a manager/valet or a wrestler Christy replied "I would like to be put were I am most needed. I can see myself doing both, and I am interested in learning everything about the business. But man it would be a lot of fun to get in the ring and kick some butt!"

Discussing her Man Show TV stint Christy has said "The Man Show was a wonderful introduction to me for TV. It was great preperation for this show because it combined improv, silliness, being sexy, and just plain having fun! I love to work in an atmosphere that requires a group effort."

Besides her career highlights above she has also appeared in several music videos including Trace Atkins Crome video, Sonic's dance video, Blink 182's video, and Sugar Rays Snow adventure in Big Bear CA.

Hemme began her WWE career as a member of the RAW roster, using the song "Walk Idiot Walk" by The Hives as her entrance music. She quickly began a feud with Carmella DeCesare, the runner-up of the Diva Search. The feud culminated in a "lingerie pillow fight" at Taboo Tuesday 2004 on October 19, 2004, with Hemme defeating her opponent by knock-out. Hemme was undefeated in the Lingerie Pillow Fight during her WWE tenure.

Following her feud with DeCesare, Hemme began a rivalry with WWE Women's Champion Trish Stratus, with Stratus ostensibly scornful of Hemme's appearance in the April 2005 issue of Playboy. Hemme eventually challenged Stratus to a match at WrestleMania 21, with Stratus's nemesis Lita training her in the weeks preceding the event. At WrestleMania 21 on April 3, 2005, Stratus defeated Hemme to retain her title. In the months after WrestleMania, Hemme began another feud with Victoria, who claimed to be jealous of the opportunities afforded to Hemme. The feud culminated in a bout at Vengeance 2005 on June 26, 2005, which was won by Victoria.

With her feud with Victoria over, Hemme briefly aligned herself with Eugene before she and Stacy Keibler were traded to SmackDown! in exchange for Candice Michelle and Torrie Wilson on August 25, 2005, with their first match being a lingerie pillow fight with one another.

Hemme went on to feud with Melina, the leader of the MNM faction, in the process joining forces with the Legion of Doom. At No Mercy 2005 on October 9, 2005, Hemme and the Legion of Doom defeated MNM in a six-person intergender tag team match, with Hemme executing the signature finishing maneuver of the Legion of Doom, the "Doomsday Device", on Melina. Her feud with Melina continued into November, when Melina defeated Hemme in a televised singles bout.

Christy HemmeOn November 30, 2005, Hemme debuted in Ohio Valley Wrestling, a WWE developmental territory, aligning herself with Matt Cappotelli in opposition to Aaron Stevens, Beth Phoenix and Shelly Martinez. While in OVW, she used the song "Pour Some Sugar on Me" by Def Leppard as her entrance music. In December Hemme announced on her website that she would be training full-time in OVW. She was released by WWE one day later, however, with the company citing the creative team having nothing for her as the reason for her dismissal.

Hemme debuted in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling on April 23, 2006 at Lockdown 2006, giving an envelope to commentator Mike Tenay containing the announcement that Larry Zbyszko had been placed on probation and Raven had been reinstated. In addition to her hosting role on TNA iMPACT!, she is also the co-host of the Internet show TNA Global iMPACT! with Jeremy Borash. At TNA Hardcore War, Hemme refereed a match between Traci and Gail Kim. In July 2006, she was featured on Spike TV's Women of Action special.

On January 14, 2007 at Final Resolution, Christy came out and interrupted the Voodoo Kin Mafia and cut a promo about women's involvement in wrestling. She said that she wanted to wrestle too - and the mostly male crowd in the TNA arena jeered her. Kip James called her a slut, which garnered him a slap from Hemme, while B.G. James attempted to play peacemaker. In the following weeks, Kip and Hemme got into a few arguments over his lack of respect for her, and for women as a whole. Hemme made her TNA in-ring debut at Against All Odds where she wrestled and defeated "The Big Fat Oily Guy" in a Tuxedo Match.

On the March 8 version of iMPACT, Hemme asked Jim Cornette for a match pitting VKM against her new, previously undisclosed, team, at Destination X. Cornette consented and Hemme introduced The Heartbreakers. Despite Hemme's attempts to give Kip James a "low blow", VKM defeated her team, who she later browbeat at ringside. Hemme later announced that she had found another team to face the VKM. At Lockdown, the mystery team was revealed to be Serotonin, but VKM defeated them as well.

Since that time, Christy has sparodically been used on iMPACT or PPV's. At Bound for Glory in October 2007, Christy participated in a Knockouts Gauntlet battle royal to crown the first TNA Women's Champion, but was quickly squashed and eliminated by Awesome Kong. At Lockdown in April 2008, Christy participated in the first ever "Queen of the Cage" match which was won by Roxxi Laveaux. In May at the Sacrifice PPV, Christy participated in the first ever Knockouts "Make Over Battle Royal" which was won by Gail Kim.
