If we were playing a game of word association, the first word that comes to mind when I think of Beth Phoenix is “powerhouse.”
Long before she was known as The Glamazon, Beth was turning heads as an amateur wrestler. In fact, she would become the first female to ever be a part of the varsity squad, at Notre Dame High School.
Beth would further her skill level as a member of the USA Wrestling team also. She knew at that time in her life, that she wanted to become a professional wrestler.

Whether you knew her as The Glamazon, or for her time during the Glamarella era, Beth Phoenix was as good as it would ever get in women’s wrestling. Beth was also a part of the WWE main roster during a highly competitive time when the level of female talent was extremely high.
Even with the fierce competition she faced, Beth would still become a four-time women’s champion. These days, Beth is spending her time with WWE Hall of Famer, Edge. Beth and Edge are currently married, with two children and appear to be doing very well.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
