Born in Boise Idaho on July 24, 1975, Torrie Wilson (real name) has won several fitness awards.  At 5'7", 133 lbs and 36-25-36, this good lookin' lady has won several titles including the Ms. Galaxy Florida and the Ms. Galaxy Nova Championship "physique" titles in 1998.  During 1999 she also appeared on the covers of Oxygen and Natural Muscle magazines.  Adding to her credentials she entered the professional wrestling world and took the WCW by storm.  Referred to in passing as Samantha by Kevin Nash and Hollywood Hogan she appeared on the scene as a 'unknown' woman who was talking to someone (the camera).  For several weeks we were unsure who her conversations were with, until Superbrawl '99. It became obvious that she had somehow used her female wiles and had twisted Ric Flair's son David into betraying his father.

Apparently tired of playing with a boy, she moved on to greener pastures and a few months later she joined up with Billy Kidman and the Filthy Animals.  Torrie seemed to be quite happy with the group and especially enamored with Billy Kidman.  Suddenly the Filthy Animals found themselves under constant attack by The Revolution (Asya, Dean Malenko, Shane Douglas and Chris Benoit), who made it their goal in life to torment The Animals, particularly Torrie.  The Animals tried to fend off the onslaught but nagging injuries began to slow the group down and The Revolution finally kidnapped Torrie.

The whole feud finally culminated at the Mayhem PPV as Saturn/Malenko/Asya squared of against Guerrero/Kidman/Torrie. Saturn eventually ended up pinning a defenseless Torrie.  The next night Billy got sidetracked during a tag team match when the KidCam showed Torrie and Eddie Guerrero backstage in the dressing room together.  Not that anything happened, but it was enough to send Kidman rushing backstage, leaving K-Dog in the ring alone to defend the title against two opponents.  Later that night Kidman and Eddie had a grudge match with K-Dog watching from ringside.  The Revolution charged K-Dog and injured him seriously.  With Rey Mysterio already out with an injury and Kidman/Eddie fighting, it pretty well spelled the end of The Filthy Animals.

Torrie disappeared in late November 1999 and the rumors began to fly whether she was returning or not.  After 2 months she returned to the WCW and came out to ringside during Kidman's match.  Torrie helped Kidman win the match and followed up by giving him hugs and kisses which got a big pop from the audience.

There was a rumor that Hogan was upset by the push that Kidman was getting and that he wanted the pair split up.  Not long afterwards a split up did occur between the couple, lending some credence to the rumor, .  At the Great American Bash PPV in June 2000, Torrie turned on Billy by giving him a low blow and then handing Hollywood Hogan a pair of brass knuckles.

The following month at the Bash At The Beach PPV Torrie came to ringside and climbed up on the apron, distracting the Shane "The Franchise" Douglas during his match against Buff Bagwell.  Shane tried to get a smooch but received a slap to his face that almost led to Bagwell winning the match.  It appeared that Torrie was rooting for the handsome Buff to get a pinfall and to add to Buff's excitement, Torrie not only gave him a few smiles and some hot looks, but even entered the ring and gave him a kiss.  Just as Buff turned around to flex his 'stuff' for the audience Torrie gave him a kick in the groin from behind sending him to the mat and sealing the win for The Franchise.

For the next several months Torrie Wilson maintained her relationship with Shane Douglas while he feuded continuously with Billy Kidman until December 2000.  At that time rumors began flying all over the Internet as to Torrie's status with the WCW.  Apparently it was contract negotiation time and Torrie wanted more money than WCW was willing to pay, and there were hints that she was trying to negotiate a contract with the WWF.  Although her status with WCW was unclear her pages on the official WCW web site were gone by the end of the month.

By the middle of January 2001 it was rumored that Torrie was still in negotiations with WCW (but the numbers weren't even close) and that the WWF was not interested in her services at all.

Finally in July 2001 Torrie Wilson appeared on Monday Night Raw.  Putting the moves on Vince McMahon, leading him to think she was interested in having sex with him Torrie set him up for one of Vince's most embarrassing moments in his life.  Mr. McMahon and Torrie were walking backstage, and McMahon said that as much as he'd like to consummate their deal at the arena, maybe they should meet up later in the night to do so. Torrie said she had an idea, and there was a place neither one of them had thought of -- and the chairman had a big smile on his face as Torrie led him off!

As RAW was about to go off the air, Mr. McMahon told Torrie backstage that he thought that one day she would be a huge superstar. As they chatted in the laundry room, Torrie began taking Mr. McMahon's clothes off! She took off the chairman's pants and then told him to close his eyes, because she had a big surprise for him! The owner did just that -- and turned around to find his estranged wife, Linda! The owner mumbled and then fell over in a heap, as his wife just stared at him.

Torrie immediately began working with the WCW portion of the WWF (WCW had been bought out by this time), having several run-ins and taking bumps with Trish Stratus and Lita, and by the end of the month she was already wrestling in a PPV for her new employer.  Shortly thereafter Torrie became a companion to the Japanese Buzzsaw - Tajiri - and also began feuding with her ex-WCW friend Stacy (in real life they are good friends and traveling companions.)  Within months she helped Tajiri gain the Cruiserweight Title and ended 2001 with a win over Stacy in the first ever Eggnog Match on Christmas Eve!

In January 2002 there were rumors that Torrie and Trish were having problems backstage, but Torrie was steadily increasing her  popularity with the WWE fans as she appeared in several competitions against the leggy Stacy Keibler, including a Pose Down competition and a Bikini Match.

In April Billy Kidman appeared in the WWE and warned Torrie that he was going to take Tajiri's Cruiserweight Title away which he promptly did.  An upset Tajiri began making Torrie dress in Geisha outfits even after he regained the title belt at the Backlash PPV.  She not only accompanied Tajiri to ringside during this time but also managed to  continue her rivalry with Stacy on several occasions including winning the Undressed Divas Special in June. 

That event led into a new feud in and out of the ring for Torrie against the first female Tough Enough winner - Nidia.  Over the next two months these two would meet up in wrestling matches as well as a  Bikini Contests, leaving neither as a clear cut winner  as a wrestler in the ring but giving Torrie the obvious win in a bikini.

In October Torrie's life changed forever as she ran head-on into a new nemesis - Dawn Marie.  Unfortunately not knowing how treacherous Dawn could be, Torrie introduced the sultry brunette to her dad (played by Al Wilson her real life father) before their Bikini Contest.  Losing to Torrie caused an irate Dawn Marie to slap Torrie across the face and knock her to the mat.  A new feud was born!

The next week the two met again but this time for a Lingerie Contest.  Once again Torrie won but Dawn had some other ideas which included propositioning Al Wilson to come to her hotel room!  The very next week Torrie was in complete horror when she discovered her father and Dawn taking a shower together.  This worked nicely into the No Mercy PPV just 3 days later when Torrie and Dawn Marie had a showdown in the ring, which Torrie won.

The two continued their hatred for one another as Torrie begged her father to break of his relationship with Dawn, but Dawn Marie gained the trump card in early November when Al Wilson publicly asked her to marry him and she accepted.  A few seconds later the WWE tried to get an interview with Torrie but she stormed out of the arena completely upset and in tears.  The following week Al tried to make amends with Torrie by asking her to the wedding but she declined and added "there's no fool like an old fool."

December 2002 had the WWE giving us one of the best storylines a red-blooded male Diva fan could ask for, as Dawn Marie made it clear to Torrie that she was hot for her body.  Now Torrie could have easily told Dawn Marie to take a hike except for one little problem, Dawn Marie promised to leave Al alone if Torrie would accede to Dawn's wishes.  To end the show Torrie Wilson went to Dawn Marie's room and Dawn told Torrie that if she does everything she wants, the wedding will be off. Torrie walked off and Dawn said "I guess you don't love your father after all." Torrie stopped and changed her mind and walked back to Dawn and stood there as Dawn touched Torrie's hair with the show going off the air.

Fireworks hit the air the next week as Torrie went to the backstage area and found that numerous staff members knew about her tête-à-tête with Dawn.  Torrie hunted down Dawn Marie and asked her who the hell she thought she was spreading rumors about their hotel room encounter? Dawn replied that she couldn't believe the way Torrie was talking to her after they had spent the night  together.  Dawn then agreed to break off the impending marriage to Al as promised, but she outsmarted Torrie once again.  Instead of breaking things off, she told Al all about her fling with Torrie and Al told her he didn't care and that he still wanted to marry her.  Of course the now crazed Torrie came out to the ring and beat the stuffing's out of Dawn, but this made matters even worse for the blonde cutie as Dawn and Al left the ring together with Dawn promising to show the whole world a tape of the romantic encounter just 3 days later at the Armageddon PPV.

True to her word Dawn Marie did exactly what she said and the WWE fans were treated to some video from the hotel room.  Unfortunately for fans though the action was stopped right after the first kiss (imagine that), leaving us wanting to see a lot more of the two embracing each other clad only in flimsy lingerie.  The following week Dawn said that not only is Torrie a sexual predator but she's a jealous nymphomaniac! She has no one to love her and that's why Dawn is lucky because she cherishes the relationship she has with Torrie's father. Everyone should know that her relationship with Al Wilson is truly sacred.

By this time it was also an acknowledged fact that Torrie was seriously dating Billy Kidman and in an interview a few days later told the world that her fiancé Billy Kidman was fine with the kiss after seeing it. "He didn't have a problem with it at all. I actually think that the way they built it up, he thought it was going to be a lot worse than it was. He even said, 'You know, that wasn't that bad at all."

January 2003 was the culmination of the two hot Divas spite for each other as the wedding took place, and Dawn Marie had so much sex with Al on the honeymoon that she accidentally killed him by giving the poor old fart a heart attack.  At the funeral the two Divas confronted each other with Torrie being declared the victor after hitting Dawn Marie in the face so hard that she knocked the casket over.  Of course Dawn Marie once again got the upper hand as she retaliated with a lamp to Torrie's head as she was crying over her father's body.

The major highlight of 2003 for Torrie was the centerfold in the May 2003 issue of Playboy magazine which sold over 1,000,000 copies.  Of course this had to be offset by some new feud or tragedy in her life.  The sultry Diva Sable, made her controversial comeback to the WWE on April 3, 2003 during Torrie Wilson's "Playboy Coming Out Party" on SmackDown!  This led to several confrontations between the two hot Diva's, not in wrestling matches, but to the fans pleasure they met in several bikini contests.  This all led up to a bikini contest between the two at Judgment Day, which Wilson won. After the contest, Wilson kissed the former Women's Champion Sable on the lips, showing her that there was "no hard feelings" due to Torrie's win over the WWE veteran.

In June 2003 Torrie began a short stint as Billy Gunn's sidekick, which included Billy fighting for Torrie's honor in a "Indecent Proposal Match" against Jamie Noble at the Vengeance PPV.  Billy lost the match which led to Torrie possibly having to sleep with Jamie Noble.  This adverse event was blocked by Nidia arriving at the hotel room just in "the nick of time", saving Torrie from the horrors of actually having to sleep with Jamie.  Strangely enough this somehow made the two women friends and they both entered into several battles against the newcomer to the WWE, Shaniqua.

At the end of September 2003 it was announced that Billy Gunn needed shoulder surgery, so this left Torrie on her own once again.  She used the time to stay the "hottest" WWE diva by winning several more bikini and posing contests "hands down".

Torrie teamed with Sable in February 2004 to feud with RAW divas Stacy Keibler and Miss Jackie. The feud centered around the latter duo's storyline jealously of Wilson and Sable's Playboy cover status, as well as their recently being named cover girls yet again, as the two divas were announced to be featured together in an upcoming Playboy March 2004 issue. After weeks of rivalry, Wilson and Sable defeated Stacy Keibler and Miss Jackie in a Playboy Evening Gown match at WrestleMania XX. Later in the year, Wilson engaged in a short feud with Sable, who defeated her at the Great American Bash.

It was revealed on August 22, 2005 that Torrie and Candice Michelle had been traded to RAW in the 2005 draft lottery. Torrie turned heel by attacking Ashley Massaro. Torrie and Candice's feud with Massaro continued over the next couple weeks, as the duo, along with their enforcer Victoria, made things difficult for Massaro. Massaro evened the score on the September 12, 2005 edition of RAW when she brought out the returning Trish Stratus, and the duo proceeded to attack the heels. This led to a tag match at Unforgiven 2005, where the team of Stratus and Massaro defeated Wilson and Victoria. The feud continued into WWE Homecoming, where Stratus and Ashley Massaro defeated Torrie, Candice, and Victoria in the first ever three on two Bra and Panties match by stripping all three of their opponents.

Wilson was absent from WWE television for quite some time after this, leading to rumors and false reports that she had been released from WWE. In actuality, she had taken a leave of absence to tend to some "personal issues". Wilson was surprised by the rumors after some media personnel offered to help her find work. WWE issued a statement on their website, on which Torrie also commented, denouncing the rumors. In the statement she joked she had to "call the WWE office and ask them if they forgot to fire me."

In November, Wilson made her return to RAW, where she, Candice Michelle and Victoria faced off against the team of Trish Stratus, Ashley, and their new ally Mickie James. Vince McMahon soon begin referring to the team of Torrie Wilson, Victoria, and Candice Michelle as "Vince's Devils."

Vince's Devils was a short-lived alliance, as Torrie Wilson made a turn to a face diva once again after Candice Michelle and Victoria turned on her. The feud between Candice Michelle and Wilson was a lengthy one that led to a match in which Playboy's newest cover girl, Candice Michelle, faced off against Wilson at WrestleMania 22 in a Playboy Pillow Fight. Wilson won the match, but the feud still continued on-and-off for some time. On the June 12, 2006 edition of RAW, Torrie defeated Candice in the first ever "Wet & Wild match," a wrestling match involving water balloons and squirt guns, in which the winner of the match would be on the cover of the WWE 2006 Summer Special magazine.

In the final months of 2006, Torrie entered into an on-screen relationship with Carlito. During this time, Ric Flair took an interest in Carlito, and Torrie accompanied the duo in a series of tag matches. In May 2007, however, Carlito turned on Flair and dumped Torrie when he turned heel. The storyline came to a halt when on the June 11 edition of RAW, Wilson was drafted from RAW to SmackDown! as part of the 2007 WWE Draft.

On the September 28 edition of SmackDown!, she was attacked in the ring by the debuting Krissy Vaine, but the feud was prematurely dropped when Vaine left the company.
