Beth Phoenix Wrestling Career

Phoenix began wrestling on the Notre Dame High School scholastic wrestling team. She was the first female varsity wrestler in the school’s history. She became the North-East freestyle women’s champion in 1999 and also won at the New York State Fair Tournament the same year. At the time, she was also a member of USA Wrestling, a freestyle wrestling association.

Her life goal was, according to her, to become a professional wrestler, and she believed that having a solid amateur background would help her reach it.

Beth Phoenix World Wrestling Entertainment

Phoenix was invited to a tryout with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) in May 2004 and then relocated to Louisville, Kentucky to work for their then developmental territory, Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW).

She debuted on OVW television on July 2004, having changed her ring name to “Beth Phoenix”, and became the on-screen girlfriend and valet of Chris Masters. The storyline was short-lived, and the following month Phoenix was repackaged as the manager of Aaron “The Idol” Stevens.

She signed a developmental contract with WWE on October 20, 2005, the same month that she broke her hand. The duo was then joined by Shelly Martinez, who Phoenix soon feuded within early 2006. Phoenix then stopped appearing regularly on OVW after debuting on WWE’s Raw television show.

Trish Stratus’ ally (2006)

Phoenix debuted on WWE’s main roster on May 8, 2006, episode of Raw as a face by attacking Mickie James while James was assaulting Trish Stratus. After this incident, James berated Phoenix for “ruining everything” and questioned why she showed up in the first place. A week later, Phoenix was formally introduced by Stratus and then attacked a distracted James on Stratus’s behalf.

When James finally escaped, Phoenix claimed that James had “ruined her life”, and would not let her get away with it, before calling her a “psycho”. On the following episode of Raw, Phoenix attacked James after her match with Torrie Wilson.

Then, on the May 29 episode of Raw, Phoenix and Wilson, with Stratus in their corner, teamed together to defeat Candice Michelle and Victoria, who had James in their corner. During the June 5 episode of Raw, Phoenix suffered a legitimately fractured mandible during a match with Victoria, but was able to continue the match, and emerged victorious despite the injury.

Phoenix spent a year having surgeries and recovering, including getting a titanium plate and nine screws placed in her jaw, but she was only out of action for two months, as she returned to action in OVW instead of on the main roster.

The Glamazon (2007–2008)

On July 9, 2007, episode of Raw, Phoenix returned as a villain, when Melina claimed to be injured. Phoenix replaced Melina in a tag team match as Jillian Hall’s partner, and the two lost to Candice Michelle and Mickie James.

At the SummerSlam pay-per-view, Phoenix won the Interpromotional Divas battle royal to become the number one contender for Michelle’s WWE Women’s Championship.

Phoenix was then pushed as a dominating Diva, dubbing herself “The Glamazon” and attacking James, Hall, and Michelle on the September 10 episode of Raw.

At Unforgiven, however, she failed to capture the Women’s Championship from Michelle. Their storyline rivalry continued when Phoenix pinned Michelle during a non-title mixed tag team match on Raw on September 24.
