A biography for Michelle McCoolhasn’t been written yet.
“Years before 'Tough Enough' came out - and I still have the papers - I filled out the entire application but never sent it in. I was like this is perfect, it's sports, I'm competitive, I could do that.”
“I'm just a small town girl who enjoys making people happy.”
“I'm only naughty when I have to be.”
“Fortunately, the shooting pain in my back masked the pain of my broken sternum.”
“When we can give back to the real heroes, that's what I find rewarding.”
“I'm easily entertained, I guess.”
“I'd have to say I've been a little of both, but definitely more nice than naughty.”
“I actually got online and went to check my e-mail, and I always look at the top news, and I saw my name and I thought, 'There's got to be another Michelle McCool,' or 'This is a mistake,' or something!”
“The higher you climb the ladder, everyone is going to have a reason as to why you're there, why you're on TV, and they don't want to believe the fact you're in the working hard, fighting for storylines.”
“I think the whole Flawless thing backfired in my face. I'm just like, 'oh, man! We're out here calling ourselves Flawless, and being the most obnoxious characters, that even I wanted to slap myself sometimes!' Even I would get sick of watching myself on TV!”
“It's not easy to filter out all the negative things people say and/or write about you.”
“When I went off to college my dad would call and be like, 'hey did you watch RAW?'”
“It's such a huge honor and compliment when someone tells me I'm their hero... but, why me?”
“I like athletes.”
“I do think the women should get paid, a main event is a main event.”
“Snooki is famous for absolutely nothing.”
“Being a Diva in a man's world, you're constantly in an uphill battle; pitching ideas, trying to get TV time, trying to get in-ring time, the whole nine yards.”
“The WWE universe finally demanded that the girls get the attention that they deserve. I think women past, present, future, should forever be grateful for our super fans.”
“I can literally count on one and a half hands how many people in WWE treated me the same pre-Mark and post-Mark. Michelle McCool didn't change, I'm still me. There were a ton of people that found out I was dating Mark and was like, 'Oh, I better change my tune and be super nice.'”
“Making history is difficult, almost impossible, for those without my athletic ability and intelligence.”
