Molly Holly Recalls How She Began Her Career With WCW

During a “K&S WrestleFest” appearance in the late 1990s, two-time WWE Women’s Champion and WWE Hall of Famer Molly Holly recalled juggling her full-time telemarketing job with wrestling on the independent circuit.

She said, “Lanny [Poffo] told ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage, ‘This girl, Nora, is really nice, and she knows a lot of wrestling moves. She could probably really help her,’” Holly said. “So then I asked my boss, who’s friends with Lanny Poffo, if I could take a leave of absence from my telemarketing job so I can train Gorgeous George for one month in a warehouse in Tampa. During that month, I taught her as many moves as I could, and at the end of that month, Macho Man asked me if I would want to be part of their entourage on television.”

“I worked in the indies, but I didn’t think I’d ever be on TV,” she said. “I mean, Sable was the top star, and I wasn’t a Sable, you know?”
