Trisa Laughlin (born Trisa Hayes, March 14, 1969) is a retired American ProfessionalWrestling valet, model and author from Muskegon, MI who worked in the original Wrestling/{{ECW}} from 1995-1998 as Beulah [=McGillicutty=]. She had briefly worked in Stampede in the late 1980s as Wrestling/BrianPillman's [[UnrelatedBrothers "sister"]] Theresa. She spent some time posing for ''[=Penthouse=]'' and other adult magazines.

Beulah debuted at ''ECW Hostile City Showdown 95'', with her character being the [[FormerlyFat (formerly) fat girl]] from Wrestling/{{Raven}} and Wrestling/TommyDreamer's childhood. She sprayed Dreamer with hairspray, aligning herself with Raven, and thus providing the explanation as to ''why'' Raven hated Dreamer so much, as Dreamer had apparently been mean to her when they were all at summer camp as kids. Beulah would remain with Raven until ''ECW House Party 96'', when she claimed that she was "pregnant" and that the "baby" was Tommy's, thus [[HeelFaceTurn turning herself face]]. Beulah would stay a baby{{face}} for the rest of her time in ECW, which ended when Wrestling/TheDudleyBoys gave her the 3-D. (See {{Dropped A Bridge On H|im}}er below.)

Here's another one for the books: Beulah was the 1st woman to do a moonsault, years before {{Wrestling/Lita}} and others.

Hayes retired and went back to college. She and Thomas "Tommy Dreamer" Laughlin are currently married with two little Mutants of their own.

Despite her ring name, she is in no way related to [[Wrestling/CurtisAxel Joe "Michael [=McGillicutty=]"[=/=]"Curtis Axel" Hennig]].
----
!! "Beulah's Box of Tropes":
* ActionGirl: As a face.
* ArchEnemy: Wrestling/{{Francine}}, Wrestling/BillAlfonso.
* {{As H|imself}}erself: Her voice, at least, on the ''ECW: Hardcore Revolution'' video game.
* AtrociousAlias: The joke of Beulah's character was that she was a jaw-dropping gorgeous sex-bomb with the name of a 90-year old Irish grandmother.
* BloodIsTheNewBlack: Her match with Bill Alfonso; thanks to the cookie sheet she hit him with, he was squirting so much life juice that she wound up being covered in it as well.
* TheBusCameBack: For a [[TheCameo cameo]] at ''ECW One Night Stand 2005,'' where she had one last quick brawl with Francine during the Dreamer[=/=][[Wrestling/JimFullington Sandman]]-Dudleys main event.
** A year later, she teamed with Dreamer and Wrestling/TerryFunk in a losing effort against Wrestling/{{Edge|Wrestler}}[=/=]Wrestling/{{Lita}}[=/=]Wrestling/MickFoley.
* {{Catfight}}: So, so many, often with Francine. Also had one with [[Wrestling/TammyLynnSytch Sunny]] during the Dreamer-Wrestling/JerryLawler match at ''ECW Hardcore Heaven 97''.
* DarkActionGirl: Was originally this when she debuted as a heel.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Written out of ECW in 1998 due to a (kayfabe) broken neck at the hands of the Dudley Boys and a Dudley Death Drop.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Cookie sheet, hairspray.
* LighterAndSofter: In retirement. She went from appearing in ''Penthouse'' to ECW to...writing a children's book.
* MsFanservice: She ''had'' appeared in ''Penthouse''.
** {{Stripperiffic}}: Usually wore thongs, and, after busting Bill Alfonso open with her cookie sheet at ''ECW As Good As It Gets'', she [[BattleStrip took off her top]] and wrestled the rest of the match in a sports bra.
* OrwellianRetcon: She had posed for ''Penthouse.'' However, because WWE had a working relationship with ''Playboy'' when the ''Rise & Fall of ECW'' [=DVD=] was released in 2004, Tommy Dreamer had to say that Beulah was a ''Playboy'' Playmate. Yes, WWE made Tommy Dreamer lie about what magazine his ''wife'' had appeared in prior to her ECW debut.
* PartsUnknown: Of a sort. For her [=Catfight=] match with Francine at ECW's August 26, 1995 show, she was billed from "The Pages of ''[=Penthouse=] Magazine''."
* PowerStable: Wrestling/RavensNest, from ''ECW Hostile City Showdown'' in April 1995 until her face turn in January 1996.
* SeriousBusiness: Her whole feud with Francine started because Francine was Wrestling/StevieRichards' StalkerWithACrush, and Beulah and Raven were doing everything they could to keep Stevie focused.
* SheIsAllGrownUp: Tommy Dreamer was shocked to find out that the fat girl he'd picked on at summer camp had grown up to be so hot.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: ''Beulah [=McGillicutty=]'', not ''Buelah'' or ''[=McGillycutty=]''.
* StandardFemaleGrabArea: D-Von Dudley grabbed her by the arm during his match with Dreamer on the "ECW Invasion" episode of ''Wrestling/MondayNightRaw'' (February 24, 1997), which was uncommon in WWE at the time.
* TalkShowWithFists: The short-lived "Beulah's Box"
* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Axl Rotten, who had made his name in a violent feud in 1995 with his "brother" Ian that included barbed-wire [[BatterUp Baseball bats]], barbed-wire chairs, glass, thumbtacks and whatever else they could get their hands on and beating the hell out of each other, could be seen cringing during Beulah-Fonzie.
* UrExample: Unfortunately, of the "pregnancy" angle, which would be recycled by WWE with Wrestling/TerriRunnels, Wrestling/MaeYoung, Wrestling/{{Stephanie McMahon}} and [=Lita=], by Wrestling/{{WCW}} with [[Wrestling/StacyKeibler Ms. Hancock[=/=]Stacy Keibler]] and by Wrestling/ImpactWrestling with Claire Lynch, though that one was mercifully abandoned.
* WouldHitAGirl: She took piledrivers from Dreamer, a belly-to-belly suplex from Wrestling/ShaneDouglas, a Singapore Cane shot from Justin Credible, and, of course, the 3-D.
