Victoria Elizabeth Crawford[4] (born June 30, 1986)[1] is an American professional wrestler. She is best known for her tenure in WWE, under the ring name Alicia Fox.[2]
Crawford debuted on SmackDown on June 13, 2008, using the Alicia Fox name and the gimmick of a wedding planner.[5] In November, she moved to the ECW brand, where she managed DJ Gabriel.[6] The following year, Fox began challenging for the WWE Divas Championship,[7] which she won in June 2010, holding the title for two months,[8] becoming the only African American Divas Champion.[9] In October 2014, she began starring in the reality television series Total Divas on E! as part of the main cast.[10]
In 2006, Crawford signed a developmental contract with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and was assigned to Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), WWE's then-developmental territory.[2] She debuted on July 1, 2006, as a special guest referee, under her real name, in a match between Shelly Martinez and ODB.[11] On September 6, Crawford made her in-ring debut, under the new ring name Tori, in an OVW women's battle royal, in which she was eliminated by ODB.[11] She spent the following month competing regularly in both singles and tag team matches, against opponents including Mickie James, ODB, and Katie Lea.[11] In late September, she began managing Elijah Burke, accompanying him to the ring for matches against Chet The Jet.[11] At the OVW television tapings on October 18, having reverted to her real name, Crawford challenged Beth Phoenix for the OVW Women's Championship, but lost following interference from Serena Deeb.[11] Two days later, on October 20, Crawford won a gauntlet match at an OVW house show to win the OVW Women's Championship.[2][11] The following night, however, Crawford lost the championship back to Phoenix, who won an eight-woman elimination match.[2][11] Crawford's championship win is unrecognized by OVW, and the promotion considers Phoenix's two reigns as champion as a single, uninterrupted reign.[2][12] Crawford continued to feud with Phoenix in early 2007, facing her in several tag team matches, in which Phoenix teamed with ODB and Crawford teamed with Lea or Deeb.[13] Simultaneously, Crawford participated in the "Miss OVW" contest, which was won by ODB.[13] Crawford had a series of matches with Milena Roucka in April, before moving onto a feud with Maryse Ouellet.[13] Her final appearance in OVW was on July 21, when she participated in a three-way match for the OVW Women's Championship, which was won by ODB.[2][13]
Crawford debuted for WWE's new developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) on September 2, 2007, participating in a body contest.[14] Her FCW in-ring debut came on September 25, where she and Nattie Neidhart defeated The Bella Twins (Brianna and Nicole) in a tag team match.[14] She quickly began feuding with The Bella Twins, while allying herself with Neidhart. The Bella Twins defeated Crawford and Neidhart on two consecutive occasions, and on October 23, Crawford lost to Nicole in a singles match.[14] A week later, she and Sheamus O'Shaunessy were defeated by Brianna and Kofi Kingston in a mixed tag team match.[14] In December, Crawford teamed with Tommy Taylor in a loss to Brianna and Robert Anthony.[14] The feud continued into 2008, with the Bellas defeating Crawford and Maryse Ouellet on January 8, and Crawford and Neidhart on January 19 and 29.[15] Following the completion of the feud, Crawford began competing regularly against her former tag team partner, Neidhart. Neidhart won their first singles encounter on February 5 and was on the winning side of a tag team match on February 23, before Crawford won a singles match against her on February 26.[15] Following her debut on SmackDown, Crawford changed her ring name to Alicia Fox.[15] She began managing Jack Gabriel in September, and teamed with Gabriel in mixed tag team matches against Mike Kruel and Wesley Holiday and Gabe Tuft and Melina, while continuing to compete in singles competition as well.[15] Fox competed in the Queen of FCW tournament between December 2008 and February 2009, defeating Jenny Quinn and Tiffany en route to the final, where she lost to Angela Fong.[15][16]
Crawford debuted on WWE's main roster on the June 13, 2008, episode of SmackDown, as Alicia Fox, in a backstage segment with Vickie Guerrero, which saw her portraying Guerrero and Edge's wedding planner.[5] During their wedding reception the following month, Triple H revealed Edge kissing Fox the day before the wedding on camera.[17] Fox involved herself in the WWE Championship match at The Great American Bash when she attempted to help Edge, but she was stopped by Guerrero.[18] The confusion surrounding her interference caused Edge to accidentally spear Guerrero.[18]
After a three-month hiatus from television, Fox resurfaced on the November 18 episode of ECW, managing English wrestler DJ Gabriel, in a fan favorite role.[6] Their on-screen association was explained by WWE claiming that Fox had moved her wedding planning business to England during her hiatus from WWE television, where she had met Gabriel.[3] Gabriel and Fox began feuding with the Burchill siblings (Paul and Katie Lea) in late December 2008. Fox made her ECW in-ring debut on January 6, 2009, in a loss to Katie Lea.[19] The following week, Gabriel and Fox defeated the Burchill siblings in a mixed tag team match, giving Fox her first win as part of the brand.[20] In March, Fox and Gabriel feuded with Tyson Kidd and Natalya, with Natalya defeating Fox on March 3 episode of ECW.[21] Fox competed in the 25 Diva battle royal at WrestleMania XXV on April 5, which was ultimately won by Santina Marella.[1][22]
Fox was drafted to the SmackDown brand as a part of the 2009 Supplemental Draft on April 15.[23] She made her in-ring debut as a heel on the April 30 episode of WWE Superstars, teaming with Michelle McCool to defeat Maria and Gail Kim.[24] After winning her debut match, Fox aligned herself with Michelle McCool, with the pair teaming together in tag team matches as well as accompanying each other to the ring for singles matches.[25][26] Fox was in the corner of McCool when McCool won the WWE Women's Championship at The Bash.[27] On June 29 it was announced that Fox had been traded to the Raw brand.[28] The following week, she made her Raw debut in a tag team match, teaming with Maryse against Gail Kim and Mickie James in a losing effort. She gained her first victory on Raw on July 13, when Fox, Maryse, and Rosa Mendes won a six-Diva tag team match.[29] Fox picked up her first pinfall victory by defeating Kelly Kelly during a tag team match on the July 20 episode of Raw.[30] On the August 10 episode of Raw, Fox was involved in a fatal four-way match to determine the number one contender for the WWE Divas Championship, but was unsuccessful.[7] The following month, on September 14, she defeated Gail Kim to become the number one contender to the Divas Championship.[31] She received a match for the championship at Hell in a Cell against Mickie James on October 4, but was unsuccessful.[32] Fox became the number one contender to the Divas Championship again on the November 2 episode of Raw, by winning a battle royal which involved The Bella Twins, Eve Torres, Gail Kim, and Kelly Kelly.[33] She challenged Melina two weeks later for the championship, but was unsuccessful.[34] Melina then vacated the Divas Championship due to injury, and a tournament was set up to determine the new champion in early January 2010.[35] Fox defeated Kelly Kelly in the first round of the tournament, but later lost to Gail Kim in the semi-finals.[36][37] Fox was on the winning team in a 10-Diva tag team match at WrestleMania XXVI, but on the losing side the following night in a rematch on Raw.[38][39] On the April 5 episode of Raw, Fox was involved in a "Dress to Impress" battle royal to determine the number one contender to the WWE Divas Championship, but was unsuccessful, and the match was won by Eve Torres.[40]
In May 2010, Fox began a storyline with Zack Ryder, after he requested that she and Gail Kim be ringside on several occasions to watch his matches, so he could impress them and find a new valet.[41] During his match with Evan Bourne on May 10, Fox interfered on Ryder's behalf, but was stopped by Gail Kim.[42] The following week, Bourne and Kim defeated Ryder and Fox in a mixed tag team match.[43] After the match, Fox attacked Ryder in order to collect a "bounty" from the Raw guest host, Ashton Kutcher.[44]
On June 20, 2010, at the Fatal 4-Way pay-per-view, Fox competed in a fatal four-way match for the WWE Divas Championship, which also involved Gail Kim, Eve Torres, and Maryse. Fox pinned Maryse to win the championship for the first time, and as a result became the only African American wrestler to win the title.[8][9] In her first title defence, on the July 5 episode of Raw, Fox successfully defended the championship against Eve after feigning an ankle injury[45] and as a result, Eve was granted a rematch at Money in the Bank by Raw's anonymous General Manager, where Fox was again able to retain the championship.[46][47] In August, Melina returned from an injury and attacked Fox, after the latter declared herself to be undefeatable and the greatest champion in history.[48] After defeating Fox in a non-title match on Raw,[49] Melina was granted a title shot, on August 15, at SummerSlam, which she won, ending Fox's reign at 56 days.[50]

On April 26, 2011, Fox was drafted back to the SmackDown brand as part of the 2011 supplemental draft[57] and in her first match back for the brand she was defeated by Layla and suffered a shoulder injury after being attacked by Kharma, following the loss.[58][59] On the May 27 episode of SmackDown, in her return, Fox and Tamina Snuka defeated the team of Kaitlyn and AJ Lee,[60] which later transitioned into a feud between the two sets of Divas, with Fox and Tamina regularly winning tag team matches and allying with Rosa Mendes.[61][62] The alliance between Fox and Tamina ended on the August 11 episode of WWE Superstars, when Fox defeated Tamina in a singles match.[63]
After a tag team match, which they lost, on the August 19 episode of SmackDown, Fox was attacked by Natalya, which provoked a feud between the two.[64] She began acting as a face while wrestling alongside several different Divas to face Natalya and Beth Phoenix, collectively known as The Divas of Doom, in tag team matches,[65] and also regularly competing against them in singles matches.[66][67] As part of the storyline, Fox also prevented Natalya and Phoenix from attacking other Divas, including Kelly Kelly[68] and AJ.[69] The storyline continued sporadically throughout the first half of 2012, with Fox losing tag team[70] and singles matches to Phoenix and Natalya.[71][72]
Fox spent the remainder of 2012 and early 2013 competing in sporadic matches, usually on the losing side.[2] In mid–2013, Fox appeared on the rebooted NXT, entering a tournament to determine the inaugural NXT Women's Champion, where she defeated Bayley in the first round, but lost to Paige in the semi-finals.[73][74]

Team Bella would first eliminate Team B.A.D. when Brie Bella pinned Tamina, however Team PCB would win the match after Brie was pinned by Becky Lynch.[103][104] On the August 25 episode of Tough Enough, Fox make a special appearance on the finale of the sixth season, wrestling finalists Amanda and eventual winner Sara Lee.[105] While Nikki Bella was off television with an injury, Fox spent the remainder of 2015 competing occasionally in singles matches and tag team matches with Brie Bella.[106][107][108]
On the March 14, 2016, episode of Raw, Fox and Brie were defeated by Team B.A.D. following a distraction provided by Lana.[109] After this match, Team Bella quietly disbanded and both Fox and Brie transitioned into fan favorites.[110][111] On the March 22 episode of Main Event, she and Natalya accompanied Paige to her match against Naomi, where Paige was defeated following a distraction provided by Summer Rae and a returning Emma.[112] The following week, Fox, Brie, and Natalya accompanied Paige to her rematch against Emma on the March 28 episode of Raw. After the match, she along her allies were attacked by Team B.A.D., before they were saved by a returning Eva Marie.[113] As a result, a 10-Diva tag team match between Team Total Divas (Bella, Fox, Natalya, Eva Marie and Paige) and the newly dubbed Team B.A.D. and Blonde (Naomi, Tamina, Lana, Emma, and Summer Rae) was announced for the WrestleMania 32 pre-show.[114] On April 3, Fox's team emerged victorious at the event after Naomi submitted to Bella.[115][116] Later that month, Fox became the first female performer in WWE history to appear in front of a live crowd in the Middle-East, where she kicked off the show in Dubai.[117]
