Biography of Torrie Wilson

Victoria Anne (Torrie) Gruner (born on July 24, 1975 in Boise, Idaho) is a fitness competitor and model and performer for World Wrestling Entertainment, using her maiden name Torrie Wilson.

Wilson has found considerable success in both World Championship Wrestling and in World Wrestling Entertainment as a manager and a diva. This success led to her becoming one of several WWE divas to pose in Playboy. Outside of the ring, she is good friends with fellow WWE divas Stacy Keibler, Trish Stratus and Victoria.

A Boise native, her parents divorced and, at age 10 she moved to the small town of McCall, Idaho. She was painfully shy but she quickly found friends in her school. She quickly found her niche in many school activities including cheerleading and dance, and was very competitive in track and field.

During high school, after her interest in modeling grew more serious, her mother urged Torrie to pursue it. They visited an agency and were informed that Torrie would have to lose weight to actually be considered for jobs. She lost eight pounds, but, in the process, began a four-year-long bout with bulimia.

A few years after her battle with bulimia, Wilson developed an interest in fitness modeling. Torrie thought that this was a more appropriate path for her, and she began working out and building muscles. She decided to enter herself in the 1997 Ms. Galaxy fitness competition and, within nine months, after no experience in the field, she placed 13th. A year later at the same competition she placed first.

Torrie debuted in WCW in 1999. Encouraged with her accomplishments, Wilson moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting. She began acting classes and was introduced to an agent, who helped her gain a few jobs including an uncredited appearance on Baywatch. But it was a meeting with Kevin Nash backstage at her first WCW event that landed her a full time job. She worked with WCW as a valet for David Flair, Billy Kidman, Shane Douglas and Kevin Nash and she was the manager for The Filthy Animals until Tygress took over her position in 2000.

She entered the WWF as part of The Alliance during the WCW/ECW Invasion storyline in 2001 where she regularly teamed with fellow WCW performer Stacy Keibler. The two of them made their wrestling debuts in WWF/E when they took on Lita and Trish Stratus in a Bra and Panties match at the WWF Invasion PPV. Despite her relative lack of in-ring experience, Wilson (alongside Keibler and Ivory) regularly feuded with the WWE Divas as well as interfering in matches on behalf of other wrestlers in the WCW/ECW stable. Her interference in a match between Matt Hardy and The Hurricane on a September 2001 editon of RAW, for example, cost Hardy his WWF European Championship .

She turned face amidst the Invasion storyline, when the character began an on-screen romance with Tajiri. This new romance caused Keibler to turn on Wilson and as a result, Wilson defected to the WWF.

When the first ever brand separation of the roster took place in April 2002, Wilson was drafted to Smackdown. Soon after this, Tajiri became very jealous of the attention that Torrie received from other men so he forced her to wear a geisha outfit and appeared to mistreat her in matches. Torrie finally tired of this and during a match, she got onto the announce table and stripped off her clothing. The distraction allowed Tajiri's opponent Billy Kidman to pick up the win. Wilson briefly dated Maven on-screen after this.

Her most high profile feud during her first few years with the company came in 2003, when Dawn Marie tried to marry her real life father, Al Wilson as blackmail for a lesbian relationship between the two. It eventually turned out Dawn had feelings for Al and the two got married. Al then died in kayfabe from a heart attack after having sex on their honeymoon.

She went on to feud with Hiroko, Nidia, and Sable before entering into a feud with Melina. That led to a loss for Wilson in a Bra and Panties match at the 2005 Great American Bash. This match saw all the women involved, including special guest referee Candice Michelle, lose their clothing

On the August 22, 2005 edition of RAW, it was revealed that Torrie and with Candice Michelle, were traded to RAW. Along with Candice, she would turn heel on the same night, attacking the 2005 RAW Diva Search winner Ashley Massaro. This turn marked the first time that Wilson was a heel in WWE after the end of the Invasion storyline.

Torrie would also begin carrying her small dog, Chloe down to ring side during matches. The pair's first feud with Massaro would continue over the next couple weeks, as the duo, along with their enforcer, Victoria, would make things difficult for Massaro. Massaro would even the score on the September 12, 2005 edition of RAW, as she brought out a returning Trish Stratus and proceeded with Stratus to take out the heels. This would lead to a tag match at Unforgiven, as the team of Stratus and Massaro defeated Wilson and Victoria.

The feud continued into WWE Homecoming where Trish Stratus and Ashley defeated Torrie, Candice, and Victoria in the first ever three on two Bra and Panties Match, by stripping all three of their opponents.

Torrie was reported to have been released from the WWE on October 31, 2005 as she had not been seen on TV for a few weeks and had been taken of the list of competitors on an all RAW diva match at that years Taboo Tuesday but the rumors were proved wrong a day later via WWE.com; "Torrie will not appear at the Taboo Tuesday 2005 Pay-Per View, and currently has taken time off from the WWE due to personal issues."

Then next rumour to appear about Torrie Wilson's sudden dissapearance from WWE programming was that Wilson had left the Australian WWE tour to take care of her husband Peter Gruner. Gruner (aka Billy Kidman) was said not to be doing so well since he was released from WWE. However, when Kidman missed an indie booking, he told a promoter it was due to Torrie’s status with WWE.

On the November 28th edition of RAW, Torrie Wilson returned to the ring, and competed in a Six Diva Tag Match, in which the team of Candice Michelle, Victoria and herself lost to the team of Trish Stratus, Ashley and Mickie James.

Vince McMahon began referring to Torrie Wilson, Victoria, and Candice Michelle as "Vince's Devils", which seems to be a play on Charlie's Angels.

At New Years Revolution 2006, Torrie was involved in the first ever Bra and Panties Gauntlet Match. Torrie was the third entrant in the match, but was eliminated when she was disrobed by Maria.

Torrie, Candice, and Victoria helped guard the lottery drum with the entry numbers at the 2006 Royal Rumble.

A few weeks later after losing a match against Ashley, Torrie Wilson was told by Candice Michelle that she was to appear on Playboy Magazine. Candice Michelle also mentioned it would be the hottest cover ever. Torrie didn't look so happy. The following week, a Diva Battle Royal for number one contender for the WWE Women's Championship took place and Torrie Wilson participated. During the battle royal she was eliminated by Candice.

The next week she accompanied Candice Michelle to the ring for her Women's Championship match. She held on to Candice Michelle's arms to try and pin Trish Stratus, but was caught by the referee. After Candice Michelle came up short, Candice Michelle slapped Torrie Wilson backstage because Torrie Wilson said that she should be happy since her Playboy cover would be revealed next week.

The following week on RAW, Torrie Wilson was attacked by Victoria and Candice Michelle during the Playboy Magazine promo of Michelle thus making Wilson face yet again.

On the March 13th edition of RAW, Wilson interfered in a match between Trish Stratus and Victoria, costing Victoria the match by giving her a Sitout Facebuster (dubbed the "nosejob") behind the referee's back. Later she was found backstage unconscious, with an issue of Playboy with Candice Michelle on the cover left as a calling card beside her. As a result, Torrie Wilson was replaced by Mickie James as Trish's partner in a tag team match against Victoria and Candice at Saturday Night's Main Event.

On the March 20th edition of RAW, Victoria defeated Torrie Wilson in a match due to Candice Michelle distraction's as she came out and hit Torrie Wilson with a pillow. This came after an announcement stating that the two women would face each other at WrestleMania 22 in a Playboy pillow fight.

On the last RAW before WrestleMania, Torrie Wilson and Trish Stratus teamed up for the match origionally schedualed for Saturday Night's Main Event, in this tag match the two women would defeat Victoria and Candice Michelle.

At Wrestlemania 22 Torrie Wilson rolled up Candice Michelle for the 1-2-3, and won the match. (This match was a first ever playboy pillow fight).

On the edition of RAW Torrie once again teamed up with Trish Stratus, to face Candice Michelle and her partner Mickie James (the new WWE Women's Champion). Mickie James came out looking just like Trish, she even had her hair dyed blond, James was also wearing Stratus' ring attire. Candice Michelle and Mickie James won the match after Mickie nailed Torrie Wilson with a vicious Mick Kick.

Wilson is married to WWE professional wrestler Peter Gruner, with whom she resides in Tampa, Florida.

Chloe Wilson known as just Chloe is Torrie's pet dog. Chloe can often be seen accompanying Torrie ring side during her appearances on World Wrestling Entertainment's RAW brand.

Torrie Wilson had been traveling with the little white dog since December '04, so she was used to being on the road, but it wouldn't be until late 2005 before Chloe would make her first appearance on RAW.

Chloe would join Torrie as part of the stable Vince's Devils along side Victoria and Candice Michelle. Chloe would even make appearances in the ring acting as interference during the divas matches. Her first in ring experience came during Carlito's Beat the Clock match against Victoria, Chloe would run across the ring to her owner Torrie to distract Carlito. The next week on RAW Chloe would again get involved in a match up, during a match between Victoria and Maria; Torrie held Chloe up, and pushed the little dogs behind into the face of Maria. (this move would later be refered to as the Chloe Tush Push.)

On February 9th 2006 it was announced Torrie and Chloe Wilson would present "WWE Best in Show", a look back on all the best canine moments from WWE history which would air the following Monday afternoon, exclusively on WWE.com.
