Michelle McCool was the first-ever Divas Champion and held that and the WWE Women's Championship on two occasions, making her a four-time champion. She first signed with WWE in 2004 after participating in the WWE Diva Search and later retired in 2010.
McCool has since made sporadic appearances (competing in the 2023 Royal Rumble match, for example) but has largely retired from in-ring action.
Today, the news has broken that McCool will join her husband, The Undertaker, in the WWE Hall of Fame! She joins Triple H in the class of 2025 and will be inducted this April. We're still waiting for details regarding when and where that annual ceremony will take place.
McCool spoke to Chris Van Vliet before the announcement and pondered the possibility of becoming a WWE Hall of Famer.
"I don't know. I get that question all the time. I mean, it would be an honor. I don't know, not my call," she said. "Don't even whose call it is, but I have no idea. I would hope Laycool would go in, and everybody always asks. I mean, that would be an honor to go in as Michelle McCool, obviously."
"But think Laycool is what put Michelle McCool really on the map," McCool continued. "And I'll never take that for granted, but she just disassociated from wrestling for quite some time, and I respected that. Would I give anything to have a LayCool reunion at a Rumble? Yeah."
