Torrie Wilson reveals what she does now, 15 years after leaving WWE (Exclusive)
WWE Hall of Famer Torrie Wilson recently opened up about what she does for a living after leaving the wrestling business.
Wilson appeared in WCW in 1999 and 2000 before joining WWE in 2001. The fan-favorite enjoyed a seven-year run with the company before departing in 2008. She last appeared in WWE at the 2023 Hall of Fame ceremony to induct her long-time friend Stacy Keibler.
At the Icons of Wrestling Convention, Wilson told Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor Bill Apter that a lot of her current work is based online:
"I have invested in a few businesses online. I promote health and wellness online. I'm big into social media." [4:24 – 4:33]
Wilson, a former fitness competitor, also discussed the importance of staying healthy both mentally and physically:
"It's just become such an ingrained part of my life. I do it first and foremost for my mental state. It started off when I was young as just wanting to look good, but now it's like something I need every day. I don't feel right without [exercising]." [4:52 – 5:06]

Torrie Wilson's WWE Hall of Fame career
Unlike many wrestlers, Torrie Wilson had no aspirations of getting involved in the industry. She attended a WCW event in 1999 alongside her ex-boyfriend, which led to her having a conversation with the company's then-booker, Kevin Nash.
After Nash encouraged her to join WCW, Wilson got catapulted into a main-event storyline with David Flair, Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, and the nWo.
Wilson appeared in WCW storylines with her ex-husband Billy Kidman before joining WWE, where she became one of the company's most popular female stars. In 2019, the 48-year-old was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame by Stacy Keibler.
