Ex-WWE Star Congratulates Michelle McCool For Hall Of Fame
Michelle McCool received a wonderful message from a former WWE superstar after the Hall of Fame news.
It was announced on ESPN’s Get Up by WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque that Michelle McCool will be inducted into the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame during WrestleMania weekend.
The news caught McCool and her husband The Undertaker by surprise on television. It was Triple H’s way of paying back The Undertaker since it was Taker and Shawn Michaels who surprised Triple H with his own WWE Hall of Fame news.
After the McCool Hall of Fame announcement was made, WWE paid tribute to the four-time Women’s Champion.
Living by the motto “Faith to fight the good fight, heart to believe and soul to search within,” McCool unique journey took her from a Diva Search competitor to the top of the division and ultimately to the pantheon of greats in the WWE Hall of Fame.
Debuting on SmackDown in 2004 as a manager, McCool quickly learned that she wanted to a be a competitor in the ring instead and worked harder than ever to prove that she belonged, going on to make history by becoming the inaugural Divas Champion in 2008 and unifying that title with the WWE Women’s Championship in 2009.
Her tandem with fellow Superstar Layla led to the formation of LayCool, a dominant team that kept both McCool and Layla on top of the women’s division for years.
After retiring, McCool has made multiple surprise returns to WWE including in multiple Royal Rumble Matches, locking up with Superstars like Charlotte Flair, Liv Morgan and Rhea Ripley.
From humble beginnings as a middle school science teacher to Divas Search competitor to now an undeniable legend, McCool takes her rightful place in the WWE Hall of Fame in the Class of 2025.
Layla Congratulates Michelle McCool
As mentioned above, perhaps the best run of Michelle McCool’s WWE career was when she formed an alliance with Layla known as LayCool. Together, they dominated the women’s division before things fell apart.
In a post on Instagram, former WWE superstar Layla reacted to the Hall of Fame news.
What wonderful news today! No one is more deserving of this recognition and accomplishment. I’m truly so happy for you, Chelle! Everyone, please show your love to Michelle—she’s incredible and so dear to me. ❤️ #WellDeserved#Proud@mimicalacool@wwe 💋
