She was successful in her audition and went on to train under Mando Guerrero for six weeks , before beginning to wrestle in GLOW under the ring name Tina Ferrari .

In January 1999 , Moretti returned to wrestling , signing a contract with the World Wrestling Federation ( WWF ) . Her first appearance in WWF was accompanying The Godfather , a " pimp " - character who was accompanied by women called " hos " , to the ring . On the February 13 , 1999 episode of Raw , however , Moretti was introduced as Ivory , the love interest of Mark Henry . Ivory acted as the valet for the tag team of Mark Henry and D ' Lo Brown , Ivory made her televised WWF in - ring debut on the February 15 episode of Raw as a fan favorite , teaming with Brown to face Jeff Jarrett and Debra in an intergender tag team match that ended in a no - contest .

At WrestleMania XV on March 28 , Ivory accompanied D ' Lo Brown and Test to the ring for their WWF Tag Team Championship title match against Jarrett and Owen Hart . Jarrett and Hart retained their title following interference from Moore , Runnels , and Debra . During this time , the women in the WWF were known more for their appearances rather than their wrestling abilities , and featuring women in strip matches or farcical " slop matches " — a match that takes place in a pool full of slop — was common . Ivory , who was a trained wrestler , won the Women ' s Championship on June 14 , by defeating Debra and defended her title against Tori at SummerSlam on August 22 . Her feud with Tori turned Ivory into a villainess . Ivory continued to feud with Tori in the weeks following SummerSlam , defeating her in the first ever WWF women ' s hardcore match on September 6 . Next , Ivory was challenged by Luna Vachon , who Ivory defeated in a farcical hardcore match at Unforgiven on September 26 . SLAM ! Wrestling called the match " pointless and senseless " . In October 1999 , Ivory feuded with The Fabulous Moolah , who defeated her for the Women ' s Championship on October 17 , 1999 at No Mercy in what John Powell of SLAM ! Wrestling called the " worst match I ' ve ever seen " . She , however , defeated Moolah in a rematch on the October 25 episode of Raw to win her second Women ' s Championship . Her second title reign ended with a loss to Miss Kitty , an un - trained wrestler , in a Four Corners Evening Gown Pool match — a match where a wrestler wins by stripping the evening gown off of her opponents — on December 12 at Armageddon . Right to Censor ( 2000 – 2001 ) . In late 1999 , Ivory began playing a more conservative character . On January 23 , 2000 at the Royal Rumble , she grudgingly took part in the " Miss Royal Rumble " swimsuit contest , which was won by Mae Young . She challenged Jacqueline for the Women ' s Championship on March 9 , but she was unsuccessful . After an absence , Ivory returned to WWF television in September 2000 as a member of an alliance of conservative wrestlers known as Right to Censor . The change in character saw her don less suggestive ring attire and more conservative hairstyles . Ivory quickly began a rivalry with Women ' s Champion Lita , winning the Women ' s Championship for the third time by defeating Lita , Jacqueline , and Trish Stratus in a Fatal Four - Way match . She retained the title against Lita at the Survivor Series on November 19 — with the assistance of Right to Censor leader Steven Richards — in a match that SLAM ! Wrestling claimed " illustrated to what heights women ' s wrestling is capable of reaching in North America if the right talent is permitted to strut their stuff in a wrestling ring and not a pit full of jello . " Ivory also retained her title in a Triple Threat match against Stratus and Molly Holly at Armageddon on December 10 . Ivory and the Right to Censor began feuding with Chyna after the latter posed for Playboy in late 2000 . On the December 7 episode of Raw , Ivory and Val Venis delivered a double - team piledriver to Chyna , which in storyline , injured her neck . Chyna challenged Ivory for the Women ' s Championship at the Royal Rumble on January 21 , 2001 . Ivory retained her title when she pinned Chyna , who had appeared to re - aggravate her neck injury . Chyna challenged Ivory for the title once more at WrestleMania X - Seven on April 1 and defeated Ivory in a brief match , ending Ivory ' s third reign as Women ' s Champion . Right to Censor disbanded on April 26 , 2001 . Various storylines ( 2001 – 2005 ) . Ivory returned to WWF television on the August 6 episode of Raw , joining The Alliance during The Invasion , a storyline where the former wrestlers of World Championship Wrestling ( WCW ) and Extreme Championship Wrestling formed an alliance and " invaded " the WWF . Ivory formed an alliance with former WCW wrestlers Torrie Wilson and Stacy Keibler after helping them defeat Jacqueline in a handicap match , but later turned on Wilson due to her budding romance with Tajiri . Ivory eventually became the valet for Lance Storm . At No Mercy , Ivory accompanied Storm and The Hurricane to the ring , but the Hardy Boyz defeated the two men to retain their WCW World Tag Team Championship . Ivory went on to compete in the women ' s division , and on November 18 at the Survivor Series , she participated in a six - pack challenge for the vacant Women ' s Championship , which Trish Stratus won . In early 2002 , Ivory served as a trainer in the second series of " Tough Enough " . After the World Wrestling Federation was renamed " World Wrestling Entertainment " and the roster was split into two " brands " — Raw and SmackDown ! — Ivory was drafted to the SmackDown ! brand . While continuing to portray a villainous character , the evil Ivory engaged in a brief feud with " Tough Enough " co - winners Linda Miles and Jackie Gayda , which led to her facing Miles on the June 8 edition of " Velocity . " Ivory defeated Miles after Gayda became a heel and shoved Miles off the top rope . On the June 13 edition of SmackDown ! , Ivory teamed with Gayda in a losing outing against Miles and Trish Stratus . Along with several other SmackDown ! wrestlers , Ivory was traded to Raw in exchange for The Big Show in November 2002 . Throughout the remainder of 2002 , she teamed with Victoria and feuded with Trish Stratus . In 2003 , Ivory became a babyface and wrestled sporadically in the women ' s division . In June of that year , she had three pinfall victories over the WWE Women ' s Champion , Jazz , but never received a title match opportunity . Her only pay - per - view appearance in the course of the year was on December 14 at Armageddon , where she unsuccessfully challenged Molly Holly for the Women ' s Championship , after Molly grabbed her tights for leverage , and managed to capture the victory . She also served as a trainer on the third season of " Tough Enough " and did broadcasting duties at WWE events . Ivory also spent eight weeks working as a trainer at the WWE developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling . In May of that year , she and Todd Grisham began hosting " The WWE Experience " , a weekly television show that recapped events from Raw and SmackDown ! . On July 22 , 2005 , several weeks before " WWE Experience " ended in August 2005 , WWE announced that Ivory would not be renewing her contract .
