	===World Championship Wrestling===
	In 1999, Keibler entered a contest held by ] to find a new member of ] dance troupe, which she won. Initially a Nitro Girl, Keibler would perform dance routines every week on WCW's flagship show Monday Nitro under the name '''Skye'''. However, this didn't last long as she soon accepted a larger role and became a ] using the provocative ] '''Miss Hancock''' (originally Miss Handcock), briefly serving as an associate for the ] of ] and ] dubbed "Standards and Practices". Despite wearing ], her character would often climb on top of the announcers table and start dancing sensually. It was also during this period that she began using what would become her trademark ring entrance. ] At 5' 11", Keibler was one of few women in professional wrestling tall enough to step over the middle of three ropes that surround the ring.

	For a brief period, she dated ] (both on screen and off), who was already involved in a faux relationship with ]. This led to Keibler's in-ring debut at the Bash at the Beach in a Wedding Gown Match, which she lost after she, as well as David Flair and the referee, were left in the ring in their underwear. Keibler removed her own gown.

	Hancock was next brought into a brief feud with ], but Page quit the company at the beginning of the feud after problems with ] and a refusal to wrestle Keibler on Pay-Per View.

	Keibler and Flair began a feud with the Misfits in Action ], which saw her fall to ] in a mud wrestling match at ].

	In another notable angle, Keibler feigned pregnancy and later broke up with Flair. Originally, the angle called for her to reveal the baby's father as ]. She began to use her real name and became the valet for ].

	===World Wrestling Entertainment===
	====2001-2003====
	When WCW was purchased by the WWF in 2001, her contract was one of 24 that were retained by the WWF. She portrayed a ] character in ]. She made her WWF TV debut on the ], ] episode of '']'' when ] brought her to the ring to distract ], causing him to lose a match. Keibler originally teamed up with real-life friend ] and the pair feuded with ] ] and ]. During this feud, the four Divas competed in the first-ever tag team bra and panties match at the ] pay-per-view which Trish and Lita won.

	Towards the end of the ], Keibler managed ], during which time she was ]d the "] of Dudleyville" by announcer ]. An early highlight of her career, Keibler made her WrestleMania debut at ] alongside The Dudleyz. Keibler's main angle at the time was getting pantsed by her opponent. Jacqueline, ], and Torrie Wilson were among those to strip Keibler. During this time, she also feuded with former ally Torrie Wilson after Wilson left The Alliance. Keibler helped The Dudley Boyz put Torrie through a table. However, Torrie got her revenge after first giving Keibler a ] and pantsing her on an episode of '']''. She then defeated Keibler in the first-ever ] match at ]. Keibler's role with the Dudley Boyz came to an abrupt end when she was powerbombed through a table after accidentally costing the team a match. Keibler was still a heel after the Alliance broke up. She set her sights upon the WWE Women's Championship at ] facing Trish Stratus in a losing effort. She would face Stratus a few more times in the proceeding weeks, losing every time.

	Keibler was originally ] to the ''SmackDown!'' brand in 2002, where she participated in a comedy segment involving WWE Chairman ] hiring a personal assistant. McMahon was ready to hire another attractive female until Keibler interrupted and demonstrated why she should get the job by giving him a ] in the ring. Keibler became Vince's personal assistant as well as his on-screen mistress, frequently shown flirting and even 'making out' with him in backstage segments, until Stephanie McMahon became ] of the ''SmackDown!'' brand. ] made her debut on ''SmackDown!'' as Vince's legal assistant, who competed with Keibler for McMahon's affections.

	A key ] for Keibler's on-screen character occurred when she left ''SmackDown!'' for '']''. Keibler made her official ''RAW'' debut on ], ]. After her acquisition was announced by then-General Manager Eric Bischoff, she greeted the cheering crowd and then removed her skirt as she performed one of her signature table dances on the ''RAW'' announcer's table. During her ensuing time on ''RAW'', Keibler managed ] and ], the latter of which was her real-life boyfriend at the time. She was also involved in the eventual feud between these two. As Test's on-screen marketing agent, she came up with the idea that Test should call his fans "Testicles," cut his hair and reshape his image. However, Test became jealous of Keibler wanting to also be Steiner's manager. During a match on ''RAW'', Test turned heel and began verbally abusing Keibler. Steiner managed to defeat Test for Keibler's services, and Keibler seemed happy as Steiner's new manager, as the two characters even alluded to having more than a professional relationship. Test, however, was not happy at all, and petitioned for an intergender tag team match, pitting himself and former rival ] against Scott and Keibler, to win back the services of Keibler. Test faked a leg injury to pick up the win.

	A match was set for ], the stipulation being if Test won, he would not only retain Keibler's services, but acquire those of Scott Steiner as well. During the match, Keibler's interference backfired and Test won the match and the services of both Keibler and Steiner. Steiner would then turn heel by attacking Keibler when she botched another interference on the next ''RAW''. For a time, Test and Steiner would work as a tag team, sharing the services of Keibler. Finally, General Manager ] put a stop to the abusive Test and Steiner and freed Keibler from her obligatory contracts with the pair by temporarily firing them.

Other tracks were performed by Superstars such as ], ], and ], each of which had their own music career.

	Keibler then got involved with SmackDown! Divas Torrie Wilson and Sable. She aligned herself with Miss Jackie and they made it clear to everyone that they belonged in Playboy, not Wilson and Sable. Keibler and Jackie challenged Sable and Wilson to a Tag Team Evening Gown Match at Wrestlemania 20, which they lost. Jackie ended up losing the fall to Wilson. The feud was dropped after the match.

	As one of the more popular RAW face Divas, Keibler took over the 2004 RAW Diva Search for a few weeks. That was followed by a dance competition with ]. This led to a push with her participating in several tag matches against the heel girls, then WWE Diva, ]; then heel and then WWE Diva, ]; and then WWE Diva, ]. Her partners were WWE star, ] and then babyface, ]. Keibler showed off much improved wrestling skills, managing to get upset victories over Molly, Gail, and Trish. She even got herself a Women's Championship title match on ], ]. However, Trish defeated her to retain the title. Keibler also competed in the first-ever Fulfill your Fantasy Diva Battle Royal for the WWE Women's Championship at the 2004 Taboo Tuesday Pay-Per-View along with Victoria, Nidia, Gail Kim, Molly Holly, Jazz & the champion Trish.

	Keibler soon began a short angle with popular superstar ]. She supported him from backstage and was never considered his manager. As Randy challenged ] to a match at '']'', Randy ended the relationship by giving her an RKO, justifying this evil act by claiming he was demonstrating just how ruthless he could be in order to defeat The Undertaker.
