Jillian Hall

Jillian Hall (born Jillian Fletcher, September 6, 1980 in Ashland, Kentucky) is a professional wrestler who performs for World Wrestling Entertainment on its SmackDown! brand.

Hall's previous heel character in WWE was portrayed as a successful "fixer" for wrestlers receiving bad publicity, who has a scorned personality due to living her life with a growth sprout on her face. That growth was eventually removed by The Boogeyman.

Career

Debuting in 1998, Jillian wrestled on the independent circuit as Macaela Mercedes. Her best known work was in the short-lived GLORY promotion. She worked in and around the independent promotions until 2003, when she started working for Ohio Valley Wrestling.

Ohio Valley Wrestling

Jillian joined Ohio Valley Wrestling in the spring of 2003 (She signed a developmental contract with WWE in March 2004.), where she wrestled mainly as a babyface until early 2005, when she received breast implants. Her heel turn came about in a storyline where her implants leaked into her brain, causing her to become psychotic. Near the end of her developmental run, Melissa Coates became her bodyguard, and they managed Chad and Tank Toland. She quietly debuted in WWE after leaving Melissa to manage them alone.

SmackDown!

On the July 28, 2005 edition of SmackDown!, Jillian Hall made her official WWE debut as a heel working under the gimmick of a publicist for the heel stable MNM.

She accompanied team member Melina to the ring for her match with Torrie Wilson. During their match, whenever the camera would focus on Jillian standing at ringside, a strange "growth" was revealed on the left side of her face, causing the announcers Tazz and Michael Cole to speculate as to exactly what it is. The following week Jillian addressed the audience about the "growth" and referred to it as a "blemish". (The "blemish" was of course kayfabe.) The next week on Smackdown, Jillian helped Melina and Joey Mercury defeat Booker T and Sharmell in a mixed tag team match.

On the September 16 edition of SmackDown!, Jillian Hall was approached backstage by John "Bradshaw" Layfield (JBL), who requested her help as a "fixer". Hall accepted the offer seemingly ending her partnership with MNM, allowing her to concentrate efforts on this new client.During her time with JBL she began a feud with Stacy Keibler after asking Stacy if she could be her publicist . Hall defeated Keibler in a match on Velocity (though unknown at the time, it would be Keibler's final WWE appearance). Hall would stay with JBL during his feud with The Boogeyman which at one point saw Hall have her panties filled with live worms by The Boogeyman. In January 2006, The Boogeyman ate the "blemish" off of Jillian's face on an edition of Piper's Pit. After this feud ended Hall would return to TV with no reminders of her previous blemish. Later, Hall would accompany JBL during his United States title win at Wrestlemania 22. However, not long after this she was fired from her assistant job by JBL. Jillian turned face and began a feud with Melina which would culminate in a match at WWE Judgement Day 2006 that Hall would win. On the July 14, 2006 edition of Smackdown! Jillian with Ashley Massaro got in a backstage catfight against Michelle McCool and Kristal Marshall.

Personal information

Jillian's real name is often incorrectly credited as Macaela Mercedes, though that was simply a previous ring name of hers.

In order to "protect" her blemish whenever she would wrestle during her early time with WWE, Hall would wear a Vader style mask. This was done so the prosthesis would not fall off or inadvertently get ripped off during a match. Hall has breast implants

Her new entrance theme music is essentially a modified version of the pop hit "Busted" from the boyband I.D.. Her original entrance theme was originally used by Michelle McCool and would be later used by another WWE Diva Kristal Marshall. Her theme in OVW was "Toxic" by Britney Spears.
