Victoria

Victoria was one of WWE's prominent names during the Attitude Era, and she had a lengthy career in Vince McMahon's company. Victoria signed with WWE in 2000 and made her first TV appearance in 2001. During her nine-year stint in WWE, Victoria won the WWE Women's Championship twice. After her departure from the company, Victoria also wrestled for various other promotions including Impact Wrestling and Ring of Honor.

While Victoria had a great career in WWE, her bodybuilding career was equally impressive. Victoria won the ESPN2 Fitness America Series in 1997, and she was the runner-up of the same competition the following year. Victoria was placed second at the National Physique Committee show in 1999, which helped her to earn the IFBB Pro Card.

Alexa Bliss, one of the most successful female wrestlers of this era, is a leading name in the WWE Women's Division. 'The Goddess' signed with WWE in 2013, and spent three years in developmental before getting drafted to the main roster. Whether it was winning the Women's Money in the Bank, the RAW Women's Championship, the SmackDown Women's Championship, or the Women's Tag Team Championship, Bliss has done it all. In 2019, she officially became the second woman to be crowned a Grand Slam Champion.

Having suffered a baleful eating disorder at an early age, she became motivated to enter the bodybuilding industry where she went on to become one of the youngest competitors to receive IFBB professional status. Although Bliss never won a major title in bodybuilding, she did participate in the Arnold Classic competition.
