Stacy Keibler
To get where she is now, Stacy Keibler used her natural beauty and intellect. With her athletic skills, she managed to get a job as a cheerleader for the Baltimore Ravens. Then, from 1999 to 2001, she used that as a starting point for pursuing professional wrestling as part of WCW. She transferred to WWE that same year, where she had been a consistent guest for 5 years. Keibler formally parted ways with WWE in July 2006 to move on to other projects also after completing her tenure on Dancing with the Stars. Keibler occasionally makes appearances on the show however in 2005 she began to focus on becoming a fitness editor at Stuff magazine, which she also modeled for. She has appeared in numerous movies and works as a TV hostess on regular occasions.
