Until Natalya, Molly Holly was the absolute best female technical wrestler WWE ever had on its roster.
Unfortunately, when Jazz got injured they needed a very good wrestler to go heel and take her place, helping to put Trish over and train her in the ring. Molly had the athletic background to do it so they had her gain weight and dye her brown. She was stronger and a better wrestler than the other women, having faced the likes of Madusa, Wendy Richter and Bull Nakano in the indies/WCW etc...
Then they gave her the big butt gimmick and it became too much for her and she decided to leave. It's also been said that she is the absolute sweetest person you could meet behind the scenes.
It's just unfortunate for her that she never managed to get the crowd connection that either Trish or Lita had, or even Victoria. It kept her in the background of the division putting girls over and you can see that WWE continued this legacy with talents like Jillian Hall, Victoria, and now Natalya.

Molly's one of my favorite females of all time. I loved her talent in the ring, her personality. I hear she's the nicest person ever. I also respect how dedicated she is to her faith and the whole keeping her virginity til marriage thing, especially when the time she was in WWE was a time when female faces = slutty, promiscuous, while it seemed the formula for a heel female was "wants to show us wrestling and not sex." THE NERVE OF THOSE HEELS!
Storylines like Harvard trying to take her virginity, her "Big Butt" (which was one of my favorite butts in wrestling), etc only made me REALLY angry. In fact, her being run out of the business due to all these humiliating angles was one of the nails that made me quit watching until last year.
I havn't heard much on her since she got married. I hope she and that guy are doing well and I wish her the best.

One of the best WWE ever had. She was a hottie as well.

Don't let that psychotic dude with a severe Molly Holly hatred somewhere on the internet know that you made a topic about her. I love her though, she was great in the ring, solid promo wise, and seems like the most genuine person to ever wrestle really. That person is severely disturbed.

I have a feeling it's a disgruntled/psychotic individual from the mental health charity she was running a while back.

I adored her. She was one of the best. I'd cream myself to see a Nattie vs. Molly match, but not in WWE, Maybe in Shimmer.

This was absolutely my favorite look of hers. I loved her initial cute blonde look and gimmick.

My all time favorite female wrestler. She was one of the backbones of WWE's women's divison back in the day and got people like Lita, Trish & Victoria over.

That person is severely disturbed. I have a feeling it's a disgruntled/psychotic individual from the mental health charity she was running a while back. Came here to mention that guy. He has about 30 different YouTube accounts and spams all of the video comments with the accounts. He uploaded some video of himself taking about 50 of her action figures and used ring gear and throwing them in the trash, and then putting the trash bag in a dump truck.

That's all the same guy? Jesus Christ...he really needs help. I watched one of her shoots one time and there were about 20 or so comments about how she did something at a charity and that she wasn't a virgin or some nonsense..it was weird.
Speaking of "virgin", anyone remember the brief period in which they tried to make it look like Christopher Nowinski was trying to hit that?

I adored Molly, in ring and out of the ring. Easily one of my favorite female wrestlers of all time. I actually stopped watching before the angles got stupid, but I've always had a soft spot for the angle with her and Spike Dudley. Plus, she had the skills to back it all up.
Honestly, WWE and women's wrestling is a poorer place for her no longer being involved.

She was great as Miss Madness '99; WCW eye-candy with Madusa and Gorgeous George. I'm getting a boner just thinking of the three of them

She was one of the best women's wrestlers they've ever had. She and Victoria were in a different class in terms of making their opponents look like a million dollars, and not being selfish in the ring. She made everyone from Lita to Terri Runnels look like threats in the ring. She deserved to hold the gold and I'm glad she did. She played a huge part in making Trish Stratus, and I hope Trish recognises that.
It's a shame people still focus on the big butt angle whenever she is mentioned, but then it shows just how badly one storyline can affect someone. That ran for about, what, one or two months during her first title reign? And yet it's a major thing that people associate with her. Out of a five year career that is what most people remember, but she went on to win a second championship and have a Wrestlemania match after that. Her career wasn't over after "Molly has a big butt", but most people seem to think it was.

New Jack liked her. That's how nice she is. New Jack f***ing likes her.
To roughly retell the story, New Jack and Molly were travelling with a group of people. New Jack, who of course is known for his subtletly in getting his feelings across, proclaims he is "f***ing hungry." They're in the middle of nowhere so Molly just quietly says "Jack, I have some seeds if you want any." Jack says that his heart melted when she said that.

I remember the days from 2001-2003 when I actually (for the most part) ENJOYED watching the women in WWE wrestle. Molly was a big part of that, and she is sorely missed.
