Maryse Ouellet (born January 21, 1983)[1] is a French Canadian glamour model and professional wrestler, better known simply as Maryse. She is working for WWE on its Raw brand, and also appears as the co-host on NXT. She is currently out of action due to injury.[3]

After spending years modelling, including winning Miss Hawaiian Tropic Canada in 2003, Maryse was hired by WWE in 2006, after she participated in the WWE Diva Search competition. Despite her elimination, she was sent to WWE's developmental facility, Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) in Louisville, Kentucky. She signed a deal with WWE in August 2006 and was assigned to OVW for wrestling training, where she made her ring debut in December 2006. She appeared in vignettes on WWE television. During this time, she continued working at OVW, but was later transferred to Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW), another WWE developmental facility, to further her training.

In March 2008, Maryse appeared on SmackDown, competing in a swim suit competition. Three months later she made her television in-ring debut. In December 2008, Maryse captured her first title with the company, the WWE Divas Championship, and would hold onto it for seven months. In April 2009 she was drafted to Raw, during the 2009 WWE Draft. She won the Divas Championship for the second time in February 2010, making her the first wrestler to have held the championship on more than one occasion. She is currently the longest reigning WWE Divas Champion in history, having held the title for 265 days.

Modelling career

Ouellet began her career as a beauty pageant contestant, winning Miss Hawaiian Tropic Canada 2003 and finishing second at the International Finals of Miss Hawaiian Tropic 2004.[1][6] She was also on the cover of Playboy's 2007 Girls of Canada calendar.[7]

World Wrestling Entertainment / WWE (-present)

Diva Search and developmental territories (2006–2008)

In the summer of 2006, Maryse tried out for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE)'s Diva Search.[1][8] She made the final cut and was one of the top eight featured on WWE, but on the July 24 episode of WWE Raw she became the second person to be eliminated. Despite her elimination, she was invited to observe workouts and the training facility at WWE's developmental territory, Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW).[1] Ouellet later said that she was "very, very excited", as it was her "dream to become a WWE Diva".[9]

Ouellet was officially signed to a WWE developmental contract on August 24, 2006 and was assigned to OVW for training.[1] She made her in-ring debut at a live event in December 2006.[1] In March 2007, she began wrestling in dark matches prior to the OVW television tapings.[1] In mid-2007, Ouellet began managing Sylvain Grenier both in OVW and at the Raw/SmackDown/ECW house shows.[10] When Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) opened in the summer of 2007, Maryse was transferred to the developmental facility for training, and on September 25, she made her FCW debut as the valet of Ryan O'Reilly along with Lacey Von Erich.[1][10] She then started competing in singles and tag team competition, before managing Ted DiBiase, Jr. in December 2007.[10] She accompanied him to the ring when he captured the FCW Southern Heavyweight Championship.[10] She continued making sporadic appearances in FCW until January 2008.[10]

SmackDown and Divas Champion (2006–2009)

On the September 22, 2006 episode of SmackDown!, Ouellet, known as simply Maryse, was shown on the TitanTron welcoming the Montreal viewers (in French) to the season premiere of SmackDown! on the CW Network.[1] Maryse made her first actual television appearance with her entrance theme on the May 21, 2007 episode of Raw to present American rapper Timbaland's new music video for the single "Throw It on Me" (2007), in which she had appeared.[11]

By the time she began appearing regularly on SmackDown at the beginning of 2008, she had adopted a snobby attitude, thus becoming a villain in the process.[10] On the March 7, 2008 episode of SmackDown, Maryse competed in a swimsuit contest, against Victoria, Michelle McCool, Cherry, and Eve Torres.[12] In the end, Maryse and Eve got into a fight.[12] On March 14, Maryse was the first eliminated from the swimsuit competition.[13] On March 28, Maryse competed in a "Wet and Wild" match where she teamed with Victoria against Cherry and McCool in a losing effort.[14] On a "SmackDown after the bell video" on WWE.com, the tag team, Deuce 'n Domino dumped Cherry (who had been their manager) and replaced her with Maryse.[1] Maryse then insulted Cherry, only for Cherry to slap her.[15] On the May 16 episode of SmackDown, she made her television in-ring debut in a losing effort to Cherry, though defeated her in a rematch with a roundhouse kick weeks later.[16][17] For weeks, Maryse teamed with Victoria and Natalya against Cherry, Michelle McCool and Maria. Maryse then suffered a minor broken nose after receiving a bulldog from Maria.[18]

Maryse lost in her first title match for the WWE Divas Championship against Michelle McCool at Unforgiven in September, resulting in a feud between the two Divas.[19] She then came up short once again in title rematch on SmackDown.[20] On the September 23 episode of ECW, Maryse defeated McCool in a non-title match.[21] After being off television for a month, Maryse returned at November's pay-per-view event Survivor Series to participate in the five-on-five SmackDown vs. Raw Divas Elimination match.[22] Maryse was the sole survivor of the SmackDown team, but ultimately was eliminated by Beth Phoenix.[22] On December 19, Maryse pinned Maria to become the number one contender for Michelle McCool's Divas Championship.[23] The next week on SmackDown, Maryse beat McCool to become the new Divas Champion in a match with Maria as the special guest referee.[8][24] On December 28, 2008 at a house show in Raleigh, North Carolina, Maryse dislocated her knee in a tag team match against The Bella Twins, when one of the twins initiated a dropkick that landed on her kneecap, it was later announced that the injury was not too serious and that she would be able to return in a few weeks.[25] On the January 23, 2009 episode of SmackDown, Maryse returned in a non-wrestling role and sat at ringside commentating, during a Divas' tag team match.[25] Maryse returned to wrestling on February 20 in a tag team match with Michelle McCool and defeating Maria and Eve Torres.[26] On April 5, Maryse competed in a Divas battle royal at WrestleMania XXV, but the match was won by Santino Marella.[27] She made her first title defence against McCool on March 27th on Smackdown!, Maryse won via Disqualification after the returning Gail Kim attacked both Michelle and Maryse.[28]

On the April 13 episode of Raw, Maryse was drafted to Raw as part of the 2009 WWE Draft, in the process making the Divas Championship exclusive to the Raw brand.[29]On the April 17 edition of SmackDown Gail Kim defeated Maryse.[30] This earned Gail Kim a championship match the following week, Maryse successfully retained the title against her.[31] She made her Raw in-ring debut on April 27, teaming with Beth Phoenix, Rosa Mendes, and Jillian Hall in a loss to Mickie James, Santina Marella (Santino Marella dressed in drag), Brie Bella and Kelly Kelly.[32] Maryse began feuding with Mickie James, after she cost James a battle royal, won by Kelly Kelly, after sprayed hair spray at her eyes. The following week, Maryse lost against Kelly by disqualification, meaning the championship did not change hands and won a subsequent rematch by pinfall two weeks later on June 8.[33][34] At the Night of Champions pay-per-view on July 26, Maryse lost the Divas Championship to Mickie James.[35] She then took a hiatus from WWE to recover after having knee surgery.[36] Maryse made her return on the November 23 episode of Raw, disguised as the Gobbledy Gooker, as the guest timekeeper for a divas tag team match. After the match, she revealed herself by attacking Melina.[37] The following week, Maryse made her in-ring return on the November 30 episode, pinning Melina in a tag team match.[38]

In early 2010, a tournament was held for the newly vacated Divas Championship.[39] On the February 22 episode of Raw, Maryse defeated Gail Kim in the final round of a tournament for the vacated Divas Championship.[40][41] The finals were originally to be held on February 21, 2010 at WWE's Elimination Chamber PPV event,[42] but the match was changed to the team of Maryse and Gail Kim against team LayCool (McCool and Layla), which was won by the latter.[43] At WrestleMania XXVI she was on the winning team in a 10-Diva tag team match.[44] Maryse lost the Divas Championship two months later to Eve Torres on the April 12 episode of Raw,[45] and was unsuccessful in an attempt to regain it at the Over the Limit pay-per-view the following month.[46] At the Fatal 4-Way pay-per-view on June 20, Maryse competed in a fatal four-way match for the WWE Divas Championship, which involved Gail Kim, Eve Torres and Alicia Fox, however, Fox won the contest.[40][47] On the June 21 episode of Raw, after Ted DiBiase fired Virgil, Maryse became DiBiase's new personal assistant.[48] In late September, a mysterious stalker was sending messages to Maryse and Ted DiBiase, but it was unsure who they were aimed at. On the October 4 episode of Raw, Goldust was revealed as the mystery stalker, but the messages were not directed to Maryse, but at DiBiase's Million Dollar Championship, which he then took.[49]

On November 30, Maryse was announced as a mentor to Brodus Clay for the fourth season of NXT along with DiBiase.[50] On the December 13 episode of Raw Maryse was involved in a battle royal to determine the winner of the Diva of the Year Slammy Award but was eliminated by Natalya.[51] On the January 25, 2011, episode of NXT, Brodus Clay traded his Pros, Maryse and Ted DiBiase, for Alberto Del Rio.[52] On the March 8 episode of NXT, Maryse became the co-host of the show alongside Matt Striker. On April 5, Ted DiBiase gave Maryse a week to decide between her job on NXT or relationship with him after being disqualified against Yoshi Tatsu because he wouldn’t stop an attack during the match.[53] On the next week, Maryse announced she would keep her job on NXT, terminating her relationship with DiBiase. Maryse returned to the ring on April 21, defeating Natalya on WWE Superstars .[54] On the May 2nd episode of Raw she faced Kelly Kelly. The match ended in a no contest when Kharma made her Raw debut by attacking Maryse.[55] On the May 23rd edition of "Raw", Maryse teamed with The Bella Twins and Melina to take on the team of Kelly Kelly, Beth Phoenix, Gail Kim and Eve Torres, however, the match ended in a no contest following an interruption from Kharma.[56] On June 9 edition of WWE Superstars she teamed with Melina to defeat the team of Eve Torres and Gail Kim.[57] On the June 13 All-Star edition of Raw, Maryse made part of a 7 on 7 divas tag team match. She teamed with The Bella Twins, Rosa Mendes, Alicia Fox, Melina and Tamina in a losing effort to Kelly Kelly, Beth Phoenix, Gail Kim, Eve Torres, Natalya, A.J and Kaitlyn.[58] On the June 14th episode of NXT Maryse turned on Lucky Cannon and called him a cheap loser and then slapping him in the face. On the following episode of NXT Maryse quickly turned heel again and told Hornswoggle he had a little brain, and to get a woman his own size when he offered her a candy ring.[59] Also the following week in the June 28 edition of NXT Maryse sat at commentary during Titus O'Neil's match against JTG only to rip a card that Hornswoggle gave her before the match. On July 14, 2011 edition of WWE Superstars, she faced Beth Phoenix in a losing effort. On the July 19 edition of NXT, Hornswoggle received a heart of green Skittles(?) from a "secret admirer" and believed it to be Maryse, but she informed him she had nothing to do with it before shoving him against the wall and throwing the heart in his face. On the July 25 edition of Raw, Maryse and Melina competed in a tag team match against Eve Torres and Kelly Kelly in a losing effort. On the July 26 edition of NXT, Maryse confronted and made fun of Hornswoggle and AJ Lee, who turned out to be Hornswoggle's secret admirer, only to be hit in the face with a bouquet of flowers after making fun of their height and calling them trolls. Maryse was advertised to be a participant in a battle royal to determine the #1 contender for the Divas Championship against Kelly Kelly on the August 1 edition of Raw, but she was not present to participate in the match due to an upcoming surgery for an abdominal hernia.[60][61]
