Summary

This week on “Chasing Glory with Lilian Garcia,” Lilian sits down with former WWE Women’s and Divas Champion, Michelle McCool. In this episode, Michelle talks about what she’s been up to since leaving the WWE as well as why exactly she left the company back in 2011. She speaks about her upbringing and what is was like growing up with the pressure of being in the McCool family. She talks all about how she got into the WWE as she reveals that she initially applied for Tough Enough but never actually turned in her application. Once she became part of the roster, Michelle would talk about having to fight for every second of TV time and why she didn’t give herself the chance to celebrate her successes. Michelle EXCLUSIVELY opens up about her personal life and marriage to Mark Calaway who most people know, as The Undertaker. She speaks about how they started dating as well as the moment that he fell in love with her. But with that comes a stigma, so she talks about how she dealt with having the stigma of being “The Undertakers girlfriend” to now being “The Undertaker’s Wife”. Michelle speaks about her love of being a mother to her little girl but how she has struggled to get pregnant again and dealing with her unfortunate miscarriages. Michelle lovingly shares about the bond she has with her squared circle sisters as well as sharing beautiful memories of working with the late Ashley Massaro and being part of the GoFundMe page to raise money for her daughter. All this and much, much more as it’s about to get real, raw, and inspiring with Michelle McCool!
