THQ has finally added Layla’s WWE 13 profile page which features her biography, social media links, screen shots, videos, and more. As you all know, Layla will be a DLC character in this year’s game, her DLC character is available for free for download ! In this year’s game, Layla’s finisher is going to be the LayOut and her entrance theme has been changed to her current one, Insatiable. For more information on Layla’s character in WWE 13, please click here.

Utilizing skills honed while a member of the Miami Heat dance squad, Layla won the 2006 Diva Search to earn her opportunity in WWE.

The flirty contest winner made her first appearance at that year’s SummerSlam, and then the English-born beauty took her sweet dance moves to ECW, where she wowed the WWE Universe as part of the Extreme Exposé.
By 2009, Layla joined forces with Michelle McCool to form Team Lay-Cool on SmackDown. The “Flawless” duo seemed inseparable, even going as far as referring to themselves as the self-professed “co-Women’s Champions” when Layla held the title. But it wasn’t long before Layla enjoyed her own time in the spotlight.
Alongside McCool in a 2-on-1 Handicap Match for the title, Layla pinned Beth Phoenix in May 2010 on SmackDown to become the first-ever British Women’s Champion, and with that accolade, she also became the last Women’s Champion, as the title was retired shortly thereafter.
Things started to unravel between Lay-Cool in 2011, culminating with a Loser Leaves WWE Match at Extreme Rules, which saw the end to their friendship and McCool’s departure from WWE. Despite the victory over her ex-friend, an injury sidelined the British beauty for the rest of the year. After lengthy rehab on her knee, Layla finally returned to the ring at Extreme Rules in 2012 where she defeated Nikki Bella to win the Divas Title, proving that she hadn’t lost a step in her time away from the squared circle.

Michelle McCool Talks About Layla

WRESTLING, 06 IANUARIE 2013 | Posted by Sarah on December 25th, 2012. Filed in Interviews -- Comment?

  Michelle McCool has been talking about her former friends and colleagues in recent interviews with her official fan site, MichelleMcCool.net! This time, Michelle talks about her best British friend, 1/2 of the flawless Lay-Cool, none other than Layla! They always have the sweetest things to say about each other and this is no different! Michelle shares her story about working with Layla,  forming Lay-Cool, the Piggie James storyline, and more! Be sure to take a listen.

Formation of LayCool: “It all just kind of happened. They randomly put Layla and I together in some match, and we were pretty good friends at this point, but we weren’t near as close as how we ended up before I left. When we went out there on camera, Vince just saw something that he liked. He liked the dynamic of us together and that literally was it. As far as coming up with the name, it was just during the time the media was joining everybody’s names together, like Brangelina. So we thought: why not? We’re just as cool as these other celebrities, or so we thought in our own minds of course, so we said “let’s come up with something!” We spit them in half, came up with a bunch of different combinations and ultimately ended up with LayCool.”
LayCool Chemistry: “So, they kept putting us on camera together and somehow I guess you just have a connection with certain people; we just fed off of one another. We couldn’t be completely different: she was this cute little petite fireball, full of energy, funny as can be — and then you have me: this amazon, this more serious, more athletic character. It was where opposites attract. I can’t tell you how happy I am for them putting us together; to not only build this character, but to build this bond — this friendship.”
Growing Together: “When we got together, she had just come off dancing on ECW with Kelly and Brooke, and didn’t really do much in the ring. You all know how much she’s grown as an in-ring competitor. She grew, as we both did. I give her all the glory in the world for helping me with my character and mic skills, and all of our promos. I’m just so thankful for her.”
Backstage Animosity: “It can be a pretty stressful environment backstage, there is a lot of drama that goes on when it comes to the girls working together, especially fighting for storylines. With our character, it was already controversial to begin with, so that was a touchy subject. You never knew what they were going to give us, feelings would get hurt — obviously, we didn’t want to hurt anybody’s feelings, but that was our character on TV.”
Art Imitates Life: “I can’t tell you how many times we’d be sitting around backstage doing something stupid, and then we’d make a storyline out of it. We’d be like: “Oh! We could use this!” We just bounced off each other, and that’s where our best work came from. We were given bullet points not scripts, per se, and we could just do whatever we wanted.”
LayCool vs. Piggie James: “We were always trying to think of something where it could backfire on us and make us look foolish. You know we’d sit here and dish out all of this stuff — but somebody’s got to stick it to us! I think what put us on the map was, sadly enough, the Piggie James storyline. I’ve said it a gazillion times: I give all the credit in the world to Mickie James. True professional. She was a true professional in the ring, in the pre-tapes… so many times we’d get the script and I’d get a pit in my stomach. We didn’t want to say the stuff, so we’d apologize beforehand. But, she always sucked it up — and I know it was hard. Even though those things aren’t true, obviously, she’s beautiful and not overweight by any stretch of the imagination. But despite all of those things: we all still have feelings. That was really tough, but Vince loved it, the writers loved it — and that was all because of her. I don’t think anybody else could have pulled that off. All the credit in the world to her.”
Last Match: “My last match; going out against her in the loser leaves. I wouldn’t want to do it, at that time, with anybody else. It was hard! You’re sitting here trying to be serious, but you have all of these emotions inside that are just ready to out. I was thinking: “Man, this is my last match. Here I am with my best friend.” It was tough. But that is definitely a day I’ll never forget.”
A Lifetime of Layla: “She’s just funny. She’s always chipper, she’s crazy — she’d be the first to tell you that I’d be the first to tell her that she is legitimately nutso half the time. But that’s why I love her. She was always who she was, I was always who I am. We just clicked. There’s nothing that I wouldn’t do for that girl. We’re still dear friends to this day, and that is a friendship that I can honestly say will last a lifetime. I wish her nothing but the best. Y’all keep cheering her on because she deserves every ounce of it.”

Tuesday 25/12/2012 | RAW Results : December 24th, 2012

WRESTLING, 06 IANUARIE 2013 | Written By: Sarah || File Under: Raw Results

Aksana and Natalya started things off in a Santa’s Helper 8-Diva Tag Team Match. As the action heated up, former Divas Champion Layla battled with Tamina Snuka. Next up, Rosa and Divas Champion Eve took the fight to Layla. When Layla finally managed to tag out, Kaitlyn charged in and went right after the Divas Champion.
After a quick, hard-hitting offense, Kaitlyn was tossed from the ring by Rosa. In retaliation, Natalya locked Rosa in the Sharpshooter. But before Natalya could fully lock it in, Tamina blasted her with a kick to the face. As the fight continued, multiple Divas got involved in the holiday fray. In the end, Kaitlyn hoisted the Divas Champion on her shoulders then blasted her with a knee to the stomach for the pinfall victory.

Backstage :

Layla is shown backstage, fixing her hair and spraying hairspray. We then look back and see Muppets – Pepe The King Prawn and Rizzo The Rat checking out Layla. The Great Gonzo comes in and starts talking to Pepe and Rizzo about how the place is so cool and amazing but Pepe and Rizzo are too busy paying attention to Layla. Gonzo leaves and Pepe and Rizzo argue about who gets Layla. Layla walks by and they ask Layla how she’s doing, Layla says hello and pokes Rizzo and leaves. Rizzo says that Layla has a good taste and he leaves. Pepe says that it’s unbelievable and leaves.

Thank you TROOPS!
