Biography of Stacy KeiblerStacy Ann-Marie Keibler (born October 14, 1979) is an American actress, and former professional wrestler and manager for World Championship Wrestling and World Wrestling Entertainment.
In 1999, Keibler entered a contest held by WCW to find a new member of Nitro Girls dance troupe, which she won. Initially a Nitro Girl, Keibler performed dance routines every week on WCW's flagship show Monday Nitro under the name Skye. However, this did not last long, as she soon accepted a larger role and became a valet using the provocative stage name Miss Hancock (originally Miss Handcock), briefly serving as an associate for the tag team of Lenny Lane and Lodi dubbed "Standards and Practices". Despite wearing business suits, apparently to clean up the sexuality in WCW's themes, her character eventually climbed on top of the announcers' table and started dancing sensually. It was also during this period that she began using what would become her trademark ring entrance, trading the casual flats for sexy high heels, she slowly put her long legs through the second tier of ropes and paused. At 5 ft 11 in Keibler was one of few women in professional wrestling tall enough to step over the middle of three ropes that surround the ring. Keibler was called "Legs" by Jerry Lawler.
For a brief period, she dated David Flair (both on screen and off), who was already involved in a faux relationship with Daffney. This led to Keibler's in-ring debut at the Bash at the Beach in a Wedding Gown Match, which she lost after she, as well as David Flair and the referee, were left in the ring in their underwear. Keibler removed her own gown.
Hancock next briefly feuded with Kimberly Page, but Page quit the company at the beginning of the feud after problems with Scott Steiner and a refusal to wrestle Keibler on Pay-Per View.
Keibler and Flair then began a feud with the Misfits in Action stable, which saw her fall to Major Gunns in a mud wrestling match at New Blood Rising. In another notable angle, Keibler feigned pregnancy and later broke up with Flair. Originally, the angle called for her to reveal the baby's father as Vince Russo. She began to use her real name and became the valet for Shawn Stasiak.
When WCW was purchased by the WWF in 2001, her contract was one of 24 that were retained by the WWF. She portrayed a heel character in The Alliance. She made her WWF TV debut on the June 14, 2001 episode of SmackDown! when Shane McMahon brought her to the ring to distract Rhyno, causing him to lose a match. Keibler originally teamed up with real-life friend Torrie Wilson, and the pair feuded with WWF Divas Trish Stratus and Lita. During this feud, the four Divas competed in the first-ever tag team bra and panties match at the WWF Invasion pay-per-view which Trish and Lita won.
Towards the end of the WCW/ECW Invasion, Keibler managed The Dudley Boyz, during which time she was nicknamed the "Duchess of Dudleyville" by announcer Paul Heyman. Keibler made her WrestleMania debut at WrestleMania X8 alongside The Dudleyz. Keibler's main angle at the time was getting pantsed by her opponent. Jacqueline, Spike Dudley, and Torrie Wilson were among those to strip Keibler. During this time, she also feuded with former ally Torrie Wilson after Wilson left The Alliance. Keibler helped The Dudley Boyz put Torrie through a table. However, Torrie got her revenge after first giving Keibler a wedgie and pantsing her on an episode of SmackDown!. She then defeated Keibler in the first-ever lingerie match at No Mercy 2001. Keibler's role with the Dudley Boyz came to an abrupt end when she was powerbombed through a table after accidentally costing the team a match. Keibler was still a heel after the Alliance broke up. She set her sights upon the WWE Women's Championship at Judgment Day 2002 facing Trish Stratus in a losing effort. She faced Stratus a few more times in the proceeding weeks, losing every time.
Keibler was originally drafted to the SmackDown! brand in 2002, where she participated in a comedy segment involving WWE Chairman Vince McMahon hiring a personal assistant. McMahon was ready to hire another attractive female until Keibler interrupted and demonstrated why she should get the job by giving him a table dance in the ring. Keibler became Vince's personal assistant as well as his on-screen mistress, frequently shown flirting and even 'making out' with him in backstage segments, until Stephanie McMahon became general manager of the SmackDown! brand. Dawn Marie made her debut on SmackDown! as Vince's legal assistant, who competed with Keibler for McMahon's affections.
A key storyline for Keibler's on-screen character occurred when she left SmackDown! for RAW. Keibler made her official RAW debut on August 12, 2002.[22] After her acquisition was announced by then-General Manager Eric Bischoff, she greeted the cheering crowd and then removed her skirt as she performed one of her signature table dances on the RAW announcer's table. During her ensuing time on RAW, Keibler managed Scott Steiner and Test, the latter of which was her real-life boyfriend at the time. She was also involved in the eventual feud between these two. As Test's on-screen marketing agent, she came up with the idea that Test should call his fans "Testicles," cut his hair and reshape his image.[23] However, Test became jealous of Keibler wanting to also be Steiner's manager. During a match on RAW, Test turned heel and began verbally abusing Keibler. Steiner managed to defeat Test for Keibler's services, and Keibler seemed happy as Steiner's new manager, as the two characters even alluded to having more than a professional relationship.[25] Test, however, was not happy at all, and petitioned for an intergender tag team match, pitting himself and former rival Chris Jericho against Scott and Keibler, to win back the services of Keibler. Test faked a leg injury to pick up the win.
A match was set for Unforgiven 2003, the stipulation being if Test won, he would not only retain Keibler's services, but acquire those of Scott Steiner as well. During the match, Keibler's interference backfired and Test won the match and the services of both Keibler and Steiner. Steiner then turned heel by attacking Keibler when she botched another interference on the next RAW. For a time, Test and Steiner worked as a tag team, sharing the services of Keibler. Finally, General Manager Mick Foley put a stop to the abusive Test and Steiner and freed Keibler from her obligatory contracts with the pair by temporarily firing them.
During her days with WCW, Keibler was romantically linked with David Flair, the son of legendary wrestler Ric Flair. After joining WWE, Keibler was in a relationship with Test for several years.
In June 2005, Keibler was rumored to be in a relationship with actor Geoff Stults, best known for his appearances on 7th Heaven. The couple were photographed at many places together and seen as an item. The pair also appeared together on MTV's Punk'd, with Keibler as the recipient of the prank. The September 2005 edition of the tabloid, Star, claimed that Keibler was involved in a love triangle with Geoff Stults and actress Jennifer Aniston. It was later announced that Aniston was in a relationship with the man that supposedly got her and Stults together, Vince Vaughn. Keibler denied rumors of a relationship with Stults in two interviews and gave a "no comment" to Todd Grisham when asked about it on Byte This!.
On May 16, 2006, Keibler suffered a seizure at the ABC Upfront Presentation in New York City, and was hospitalized. The seizure was said to be minor and Keibler was released from the hospital shortly after. Four days later, Keibler appeared on the ESPN pre-race telecast of the Preakness Stakes, in an interview with Kenny Mayne.
