Sharmell

Sharmell is a professional wrestling valet and the wife of Booker T. She has spent her career working for WCW, WWE, and TNA, and she is best known for her role as a villainess with her husband.

Sharmell debuted for WWE in mid-2005 as a babyface valet for Booker T, but she was instantly involved in his feud with Kurt Angle. After the storyline ended, Sharmell transformed into a villainess and began helping Booker win his matches. Booker was unaware of his wife's fiendish tactics, which led him to becoming the #1 Contender for the United States Championship. During the title match against Chris Benoit, Sharmell tried to insert a steel chair into the equation, but she was caught by Benoit. However, at match's end, the evil Sharmell delivered a low blow to Benoit, which allowed Booker to win the title. A week later, it was revealed that Booker knew about his wife's involvement and he attacked Benoit. All the while, Sharmell cackled evilly during the revelation.

Sharmell continued working as the villainous valet to Booker during his road to becoming King of the Ring. After that, she became Queen Sharmell and she and King Booker feuded with guys such as Bobby Lashley and Rey Mysterio, leading to Booker becoming World Heavyweight Champion. Sharmell continuously got involved in Booker's title matches against Batista; often intentionally getting her husband DQ'ed to keep his title. By 2007, Sharmell began to turn against her husband; accusing him of not caring about her. The angle was dropped when the couple was out of WWE later that year.

Sharmell joined Booker in TNA in the fall of 2007 as a babyface, but would turn into a villainess shortly after Booker underwent his own heel turn. She later joined her husband in The Main Event Mafia, which was led by Booker's former WWE rival, Kurt Angle. In her time as a member of the faction, the villainous Sharmell engaged in feuds with ODB, Taylor Wilde, Roxxi, and even Survivor cast member Jenna Morasca. Sharmell's tenure as an evil Knockout ended when she and Booker left TNA in 2008.

As a villainess, Sharmell was conniving, surreptitious, and arrogant. Part of Sharmell's heel gimmick in her early years had her introducing Booker before his matches.
