Career
Kristin Eubanks started wrestling in May 2003 as Special K. She had already been appearing as a manager since 2000. She was the manager of Ric Converse, who later became AWA World Champion. Converse, Vaine, Brad Attitude, and Brad Rains combined to form "The Dynasty" that dominated the CWF Mid Atlanic indy promotion for a year as a Four Horseman like group of heels. She feuded with Jenny Taylor and Amber O'Neal in the CWF. In 2004, she changed her name to Krissy Vaine and formed "Team Blondage" with O'Neal. Vaine had a few tryouts for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) on both SmackDown! and RAW but never got signed including working Taylor in a dark match before a 2004 SmackDown! from Greenville, S.C.
She has worked for the WWA, CWF, NWA Mid-Atlantic, CCW, PGWA, WEW, Memphis Wrestling, National Wrestling Alliance, EWA, WXW, IWA, and SHIMMER.
World Wrestling Entertainment
In January 2006, she signed a developmental contract with WWE and was assigned to Deep South Wrestling (DSW). Krissy made her first DSW appearance at the March 9, 2006 tapings where she and Kristal Marshall threw t-shirts into the crowd during intermission. Her official debut at the March 16, 2006 tapings was in the role of a female referee. She managed Kevin Matthews during his matches. Krissy made her DSW in-ring debut on the June 22, 2006 tapings, where she defeated Tracy Taylor. During the match Matt ignored pinfalls that Tracy attempted but quickly counted the falls that Krissy did, as a result Tracy lost. On the June 27, 2006 tapings, Krissy defeated the debut of Shantelle Taylor by grabbing the tights for the win.
At the October 12, 2006 tapings, Krissy became the General Manager for DSW. In late 2006 and early 2007, Krissy feuded with Angel Williams, with Angel claiming Krissy did something immoral to be appointed General Manager. Krissy was tired of Angel and made her lose her matches by distractions from other Divas. Krissy tried to order around the other Divas (such as Nattie Neidhart, Brooke Adams and Shantelle Taylor) to take care of Angel for her. After they refused, she decided to try and make up with Angel. She and Angel then became the Co-General Managers of DSW before DSW shut down. She was then moved to WWE's newest developmental territory, Florida Championship Wrestling.
On the September 28, 2007 edition of SmackDown!, Eubanks made her WWE debut as a heel by attacking Torrie Wilson after Wilson lost a match to Victoria.
On October 10, 2007, Krissy (along with her boyfriend Ryan O'Reilly) left WWE. [1] Later she announced that she was retiring from professional wrestling.
