Victoria (Lisa Marie Varon) was born February 10, 1971, into an athletic family in San Bernardino, CA. All 3 of her older brothers were amateur wrestlers with two of them earning wrestling scholarships to college and her brother Bobby even went on to the Pan American Games in 1983 to win a gold medal.

Picked with only a handful of other women to cheer at halftime during an NFL Pro Bowl, Victoria went on to win a bodybuilding competition, have a run as a fitness competitor and obtain her IFBB Professional Fitness Card. She has also appeared on television in cities nationwide as a fitness expert.

Attending UCLA and Loma Linda University and studying Bio-Med allowed her to use her Pre-Med education in an unusual manner. After receiving certifications in Cryolife Tissue Recovery Training in Vascular Tissue; and Muscular Skeletal Transplant Foundation Educational Course Completion, Lisa Marie was employed as a Human Tissue Coordinator she began working at the Inland Eye and Tissue Bank in Redlands, CA where she became a Human Tissue Coordinator. She performed medical and personal background checks on potential donors, as well as physically examining the cadavers for suitability.

Lisa made her WWF debut as one of the regularly appearing "Hos" with The Godfather. She led the "Save the Ho" campaign and was often referred to as the "Head Ho". In August 2000 she was thrown through a table and thereafter referred to as "Victoria." Pulled from telecasts in November she began training with the MCW in Memphis and OVW in Louisville.

In January 2001 rumors started appearing almost weekly about her re-debut as the 'wrestling' Victoria. The rumors continued for what seemed like forever until she finally made a semi-debut on July 7, 2002 during a Heat broadcast where she wrestled a short match and lost to Trish Stratus. She didn't appear again until a RAW broadcast on August 8, 2002 when Molly Holly introduced Victoria to Chris Nowinski and William Regal, explaining that she had been training her.

Trish Stratus made her way out to the ring for Victoria's "Official" RAW debut match, as Molly joined the commentators for some color commentary. Surprisingly Victoria defeated Trish in only her 2nd match. and went on to be a major thorn in Trish's life, even challenging for the Title Belt in the October 2002 No Mercy PPV. In the culmination of a feud lasting four months, Victoria defeated Stratus for the WWE Women's Championship in a Hardcore match at Survivor Series 2002. The following night on RAW, she defeated Stacy Keibler and debuted her finisher the "Widow's Peak."

Victoria's feud with Stratus continued for several more months, encompassing a street fight on the January 27, 2003 episode of RAW which was won by Victoria, considered by some fans to be among the best women's matches in WWE history. Varon's reign lasted until WrestleMania XIX when she lost to Stratus in a triple threat match which also included Jazz. Following the loss, it was speculated that she had dropped the title in order to allow for her to have surgery on her right knee, which she had injured some time earlier. However, instead of having surgery, Varon opted to wear a knee brace during matches, a practice she continues to this day.

On the February 23, 2004 episode of RAW, Victoria won a four-way elimination match to capture the Women's Championship for a second time. Her feud with Holly reached its zenith at WrestleMania XX on March 14, 2004 , where Varon pinned Holly, who subsequently had her head shaved bald as a result of a stipulation of the match. Victoria would go on to feud with Gail Kim as champion before losing the title on June 13, 2004 at Bad Blood 2004 to a heel Trish Stratus in a four-way match which also included Gail Kim, and Lita. Following the end of the feud, Victoria continued to compete in the women's division, albeit with her on-air time greatly reduced. The releases of Gail Kim, Nidia, and Jazz left little competition in the division for Victoria.

In a November 2006 episode of RAW, Victoria dominated Melina, Torrie Wilson, Maria and Candice Michelle in a number one contender battle royal for the WWE Women's Championship (eliminating all the divas). She injured Candice Michelle's nose in the process with a kick to the face before hitting Candice with her signature Widow's Peak.

Victoria was given a championship match at New Year's Revolution 2007, where she lost to Mickie James.
