Diva Search and early appearances (2006–2007)

El's first foray into professional wrestling occurred when her trainer suggested she try out for the $250,000 WWE Diva Search contest in 2006.[10] After a casting call, she was selected as one of the finalists.[5] During the contest, she won a week's worth of "immunity" on the 14 July episode of SmackDown! after winning Sgt. Slaughter's "Diva Boot Camp" obstacle course[11]—despite having jumped over several tires in the tire hop section of the course and not having both of her feet cross the finish line due to her doing a split.[12] She won another competition, the "Diva Search Talent Show" on the 11 August episode of SmackDown!, when she danced dressed as a police officer.[13] She won the Diva Search on 16 August.[14]

She made her first "official" WWE appearance at the 2006 SummerSlam pay-per-view in a backstage segment with several other divas. During the segment, the other women initially taunted and teased her before revealing that "it was all in fun" and part of an "initiation" of sorts. Afterward they dragged her into the showers, fully clothed, where they proceeded to spank her while laughing.[9][15] The week after SummerSlam, El made her debut as a member of the SmackDown! brand in an interview with Mike "The Miz" Mizanin—although he did not allow her the chance to say much, spending most of the time talking about himself.[16] Subsequently, she did not appear on WWE television for almost a month, reappearing on the 22 September episode of SmackDown! and getting into a confrontation with both Kristal and Jillian Hall.[17]

At October's No Mercy pay-per-view event, she embarrassed The Miz by tricking him into getting a lap dance from Big Dick Johnson while he was blindfolded and expecting it to be from her as a birthday gift.[15] On 20 October, Layla participated in a dance contest with the other SmackDown! Divas, and was chosen as the winner by the judges, Nick and Aaron Carter. Despite this, The Miz, who was acting as emcee, declared Kristal the winner.[18] The following week, Layla made her official in-ring debut in a "Diva Trick-or-Treat Battle Royal". The match ended in controversial fashion when she was pulled from the ring by The Miz, allowing Kristal to win.[19] On the next episode of SmackDown, Layla teamed with Big Vito in a loss to The Miz and Kristal in a mixed tag team match.[20] Continuing to feud with Kristal, Layla had her singles match debut on the December 1 episode of SmackDown!, when she lost to Kristal.[21] In her final match for the SmackDown! brand, Layla teamed with Ashley Massaro to defeat Kristal and Jillian Hall in a tag team match on December 22.[22]

Extreme Exposé; managing William Regal (2007–2009)

On 23 January 2007, Layla was moved to the ECW brand where she joined Brooke and Kelly Kelly to form Extreme Exposé.[23] The trio performed a weekly dance segment on ECW, which Layla choreographed, for the next several months.[1][24] In June 2007, The Miz was moved to the brand, prompting a storyline in which all three members of Extreme Exposé were attracted to him.[1][25][26] When Kelly shifted her attentions towards Balls Mahoney, Layla, Brooke, and Miz openly mocked her.[27][28][29] On 1 November, Brooke was released from her WWE contract, and Extreme Exposé dissolved as a group, leaving Kelly and Layla to enter an ongoing rivalry with more active in-ring roles.[1][30] They were on opposite sides of a 10-Diva tag team match at Survivor Series, which Layla's team lost.[31] In December, Layla formed an alliance with Victoria, which expanded to include Lena Yada in January 2008, and the trio continued to feud with Kelly.[1][32][33] At WrestleMania XXIV, Layla was a 'lumberjill' for the Divas' tag team lumberjill match.[1] The following month, Layla was part of the winning team in a six-on-six Divas match at the Backlash pay-per-view.[34]

As part of the 2008 Supplemental Draft in late June, Layla was drafted to the Raw brand.[35] On the 7 July episode of Raw, Layla made her debut in a tag team match with Jillian Hall, losing to Mickie James and Kelly Kelly, who had been revealed as the newest member of the Raw brand earlier that night.[36] She soon entered a storyline with Jamie Noble in which Noble attempted to impress her with his matches, only to be squashed—easily defeated—by his opponents.[37][38] On 1 September, Noble was able to defeat William Regal, which impressed Layla.[39] The following week, hoever, Layla chose to align herself with Regal, after he defeated Noble in a rematch.[40] On the following episode of Raw, Layla reinforced her decision, telling Noble that she had finally found a worthy man in Regal.[41] Over the next few months, Layla competed only sporadically in matches, spending most of her time managing Regal, and was present at ringside when Regal defeated Santino Marella on 10 November to win the WWE Intercontinental Championship.[1][42] On 5 April Layla competed in a Divas battle royal at WrestleMania XXV, but the match was won by Santina Marella.[1][43]

Lay-Cool (2009–2011)

Main article: LayCool

On 15 April 2009, Layla was drafted to the SmackDown brand as part of the 2009 Supplemental Draft.[44] She started a scripted rivalry with Eve Torres, and lost both a dance contest and an arm wrestling match to Torres, before losing a match to her on the 29 May episode of SmackDown.[45][46][47] After Torres defeated Layla again on the 18 June episode of WWE Superstars, the two shook hands.[48]

She then formed an alliance with Michelle McCool, later called Team Lay-Cool. Team Lay-Cool began a scripted rivalry with Mickie James in October, making fun of her weight and vowing to make her leave SmackDown just after her debut for the brand.[1][49][50] At the Survivor Series pay-per-view, McCool's team lost to James' team.[51] At TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs Layla interfered in the WWE Women's Championship match between McCool and James, helping McCool to retain the championship.[52] In January 2010, at the Royal Rumble, Layla came out in a fatsuit mocking James prior to the championship match between McCool and James; however, the mockery backfired, as James attacked Layla and used that as a distraction to quickly defeat McCool to win the championship.[53] On the 12 February episode of SmackDown, Layla and McCool defeated James in a handicap match made by Official SmackDown Consultant Vickie Guerrero, who had been accidentally humiliated by James backstage.[54] Guerrero then joined the Lay-Cool alliance, accompanying them to the ring and interfering in their matches.[1] At the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view, Layla and McCool defeated Raw's Gail Kim and Maryse in an inter-brand Divas tag team match.[55] At WrestleMania XXVI she was on the winning team in a 10-Diva tag team match.[56]

On the 14 May episode of SmackDown, Team Lay-Cool faced the WWE Women's Champion, Beth Phoenix, in a two-on-one handicap match. Layla pinned Phoenix to win the Women's Championship for the first time, becoming the first British woman to hold the championship.[4][57] She is also the first Diva Search winner to have won the championship.[58] Following her win, Team Lay-Cool began calling themselves the co-Women's Champions.[59] On 1 June, it was announced that Lay-Cool would be mentoring Kaval during the second season of WWE NXT.[60][61] On 18 July, Layla had her first title defense when she defeated Kelly Kelly at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view.[62] On 30 July, SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long informed Lay-Cool that there was only one Women's Champion, and they had a week to decide who it would be.[63] The following week, Lay-Cool revealed that they had cut the championship belt into two, turning it into a friendship charm and circumventing Long's orders.[64] In September, Layla and McCool challenged WWE Divas Champion Melina to a championship unification match at Night of Champions. McCool participated in the match and won with Layla's help to unify both championships into the WWE Unified Divas Championship.[65][66] Layla unofficially became the co-champion, and defended the championship against Melina the following night on Raw.[67] After both members of Lay-Cool had successfully defended the championship against Natalya, they faced her in a two-on-one handicap match at Survivor Series, which Natalya won to become the new Divas Champion.[68] Following Survivor Series, Natalya and Phoenix formed an alliance to continue the feud with Lay-Cool, and at the TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs pay-per-view in December, Lay-Cool lost to them in the first Diva's Tag Team Tables match in WWE history.[69][70] Lay-Cool invoked their rematch clause in January 2011, prompting the scheduling of a two-on-one handicap match for the Royal Rumble. At the Royal Rumble however, the anonymous Raw General Manager changed the match to a fatal four-way, also involving Eve. Eve went on to pin Layla and become the new Divas Champion.On the April 8th edition of Smackdown, LayCool began to fall out again after being defeated by Beth Phoenix and Kelly Kelly after Michelle refused to tag in Layla. The next week on Smackdown saw Layla lose to Kelly despite McCool's help. After match, McCool scolded and brutally shoved Layla across the ring.
