Some random info: Lisa Moretti's nationality
is Italian. Lisa always wanted to entertain people, even
from a young age. She wrestled with G.L.O.W. (Gorgeous Women
of Wrestling), she was the GLOW Champion. She was a professional
cheerleader! She did stuns for Universal Studios. She has
a degree in Public Relations (Grad. from University of Southern
California). She was originally scheduled to be on of Godfather's
Ho's, but instead got a contract and went with D'Lo Brown
and mark Henry. On 06/14/99 Ivory became the Women's Champion
for the first of three times. She became and still is the
biggest female heels. She was the only female member of
the unpopular Right to Censor. She is one of the only few
Diva's who haven't beenput through a table by the Dudley
Boyz, and she was the third WWF Diva to join the Alliance
behind Stephanie and Derba.
Ivory is a fierce competitor. Showing off her
ring expertise.
She's a top WWF women's division competitor who got her
start with such organizations as G.L.O.W. (Gorgeous Ladies
of Wrestling) where she was known as Tina Ferrari, as well
as POWW (Powerful Women of Wrestling). Lisa was the champion
in both organizations. From there she worked for the LPWA
(Ladies Pro Wrestling Association) primarily as a preliminary
competitor, and she also appeared in a few women's wrestling
videos.
Upon her departure from GLOW, Ivory was relatively unknown
in the wrestling industry before making her WWF debut in
February of 1999 on Raw is War as a present to Mark Henry
from D-Lo Brown. She remained by the side of Henry and Brown
for several months before going out on her own in the women's
wrestling division, and on the June 14, 1999 episode of
Raw, she defeated Debra for the WWF Women's Championship.
Ivory became a solid representative of the division, which
otherwise had contained primarily non-wrestling women such
as Sable and Debra. Ivory also became recognized for her
ability to work the mic and the crowd.
Ivory appeared only sporadically in the WWF for in 2000,
but at Wrestlemania 2000 she co-hosted the WWF's "All
Day Pass" coverage on PPV. There was speculation that
she would begin a commentating career in the WWF, but it
never came to pass. Then in the Fall of 2000, Ivory reappeared
on WWF television as a new member of Steven Richards' Right
to Censor stable. The move rejuvenated her career, and on
November 2, 2000, she defeated Lita for the WWF Women's
Title.
After her run in the World Wrestling Federation with the
Right to Censor, Ivory was left with nothing to do, and
no respect. Ivory believed in everything she went through
with the Right to Censor, but apparently, Steven Richards
fell in love with someone and dumped the entire Right to
Censor, leaving Ivory, Bull Buchanan, the Goodfather and
Val Venis with nowhere to go. Ivory decided to leave the
World Wrestling Federation and join the Alliance and pave
the road for Alliance Divas, Torrie Wilson and Stacy Keibler.
One night on RAW is WAR, Jacqueline was going against Torrie
and Stacy in a Handicap match, because Jackie didn't seem
to like the comments that Torrie and Stacy made towards
Jackie after seeing Jackie's reactions of a Tough Enough
contestant get cut. Torrie and Stacy made a mockery of Jacqueline
and as they had their Handicap Match on RAW is WAR, it seemed
as if Ivory was going to assist Jackie against the WCW Women,
but that wasn't the case as Ivory cost Jacqueline the match
that night. Ivory was a part of WWF Byte This! on August
10th with Stacy Keibler and Torrie Wilson, and she stated
that she joined the Alliance to help lead the way for Torrie
Wilson and Stacy Keibler and that Steven Richards had dumped
the Right to Censor for 'another woman.'
Ivory was coming to ringside with Lance Storm. Lance Storm
and Ivory proved to be a tough combination. At Survivor
Series there was a 6-Pack Challenge for the vacant WWF Womens
Title. Ivory put up a good fight against Jazz,Lita,Molly,
and Jackie but I was Trish pinning Ivory for the WWF Womens
Championship. This only fuels Ivory's determination and
next time Ivory gets a shot at the Title who knows what
she'll do so secure a win?
Just when it appeared that WCW couldn't get
any hotter, along comes Ivory. The former spokeswoman for
the World Wrestling Federation faction Right to Censor let
her hair down and joined the WCW/ECW Alliance on August
6 during Raw is War. Ivory came to the aid of the hottest
women in sports entertainment: Torrie Wilson and Stacy Keibler.
Ivory's helping hand allowed Stacy and Torrie to emerge
from their match with a win over Jacqueline and also signified
the beautiful wrestler's return. Nobody knows why Ivory
decided to break her ties with the Federation, but fans
know one thing. It's great to see Ivory back in action!
Most recently, Ivory was found fighting alongside
the WWF's premier (and only) superhero, Shane "The
Hurricane" Helms. Recently losing her position as sidekick
to the athletic Molly Holly, Ivory has returned to where
she feels most at home: singles competition in the WWF's
Women's Division. Don't be fooled by her capable ring technique,
because Ivory is more than willing to use her feminine wiles
to get what she wants.
Three times before, Ivory has been the Women's Champion.
Perhaps her best run came as a member of the Right to Censor,
as she held the Women's Championship for nearly five months.
More recently, Ivory has spent her time as the lone female
trainer on Tough Enough. On that show, she's helped to train
future Superstars and decide which contestants have what
it takes to make it in WWE. But when she's not busy with
Tough Enough, Ivory looks forward to mixing it up in the
ring with the other WWE Divas. Don't let her good looks
fool you. Ivory is one tough, menacing Diva!

This feisty superstar has been turning heads ever since
she first stepped foot in the WWE. Ivory has definitely
made her presence felt, as she is not afraid to mix it up.
In the time that she has been with the World Wrestling Federation
she has already managed to make life uncomfortable for many
superstars, men and women alike.
Miss Ivory is a role model that all women can look up
to. Thanks to Mr. Steven Richards, she has seen the light
and finally come to realize what she has always known in
her heart -- that she is a woman and that she enjoys being
a woman. Ivory believes that ladies have been jaded and
fooled into thinking that low cut blouses with breasts spilling
out are sexy. She says that women have been led to believe
that short, tight skirts that expose the mid-to upper thigh
is something that men want to see. Ivory says that is unacceptable.
Real men want to see real women; real men see women for
what they have on the inside, not for what they display
on the outside. Ivory is here to say for all women that
women have been held down long enough. Ivory is here to
say, "No More."
Ivory found herself joining Shane's and Steph's WCW/ECW
Alliance! Ivory must have believed that the WWF has no respect
for her. So who knows what the WCW/ECW Alliance has instored
for her. All we know is that this vicious vixen can kick
ass wheather it's her WWE enemies or her very own company
mates!
The Alliance has since collapsed and now she is back and
better than ever as a WWE Diva.
