She is a hero...

Former WWE Women’s Champion Michelle McCool is one of the strongest female Superstars to have graced the squared circle. After a decorated career with the company, McCool sought retirement from in-ring action back in 2011.

It was in 2016 when Michelle announced via Instagram that she is suffering from skin cancer. She revealed that she had gone for a routine check-up and removal of moles from her skin when the doctors found out that one of them is cancerous.

McCool underwent several treatments in the following months and was successful in beating skin cancer after a few months. It was also during this time when her husband, The Undertaker, was scheduled to return for WrestleMania.

She received a lot of support from him and the entire WWE Universe who wished for her speedy recovery. McCool beat cancer like a champion that she is and despite other physical complications, she never allowed anything to compromise with her spirits.
