Traci Brooks Bio
Traci Brooks is a Canadian Professional wrestler, professional wrestling valet and professional wrestling referee. Born Tracy Brookshaw on May 22, 1975, in St. Marys, Canada, she has also been credited as Tracy Brooks and Ms. Brooks. She appeared in Playboy in September 2009 at 34, adding the feature to her public career. Her appearance came in the 2000s, as Playboy's print tradition began to share space with an expanding online presence.
Brooks has enhanced breasts, blue eyes and black hair. Her measurements are 40-28-36.
Traci Brooks brings a powerful, athletic glamour to the Playboy and wrestling archive — confident, curvy, competitive, and built for the kind of spotlight where beauty has to come with toughness. Her appeal has always lived in that collision between model presence and ring energy: a woman who could command a calendar page, a promotional stage, and a wrestling crowd with the same fearless confidence.
Her first major public step came in 2000, when she won the Toronto Sunshine Millennium Calendar contest and earned the title of Miss June 2000. That victory brought her attention from the Toronto Sun, which interviewed her and helped introduce her ambitions to a wider audience. Even then, Brooks was not thinking small. She openly spoke about wanting to become “the next WWF Superstar,” setting her sights on a future far beyond promotional modeling.
After that early success, she moved into promotional work with major beverage brands including Molson, Labatt, and Budweiser. Those appearances gave her the kind of visibility and camera confidence that would later serve her well in wrestling. But Traci was not content to remain only in the modeling world. In March 2000, she began training under Hutchinson, committing herself to the physical and theatrical demands of professional wrestling.
Her dedication paid off in January 2001, when she made her debut under the ring name Tracy Brooks. From there, she began carving out her identity in the wrestling world, eventually becoming known to TNA audiences as a Knockout with presence, attitude, and unmistakable glamour. In a business built on character, strength, and spectacle, Brooks brought the full package: beauty, confidence, and the ability to hold attention in a room full of noise.
A major Playboy chapter arrived on July 26, 2009, when TNA announced an exclusive agreement with the magazine. The collaboration made Brooks the first TNA Knockout to pose for Playboy, a historic moment for both the wrestling promotion and its women’s division. Although Playboy later decided not to publish the shoot in the print magazine, the attention surrounding the project only added to its mythology.
Her photo shoot was eventually released exclusively through Playboy’s Cyber Club on September 17, 2009, giving fans the feature they had been waiting for. That release confirmed Traci’s place in Playboy history while preserving the significance of the moment: a wrestling Knockout stepping into one of glamour publishing’s most famous traditions.
What makes Traci Brooks memorable is the strength behind the sensuality. She was never just a model who entered wrestling, or a wrestler who posed for Playboy. She was a woman who moved between both worlds with confidence, ambition, and command. In the Playboy and wrestling archive, Traci stands as a bold crossover figure — athletic, glamorous, determined, and fully aware that the best performers know how to own every stage they step onto.
