There isn't a valet who outshined the wrestlers she represented more than Sunny and The Bodydonnas.

The Bodydonnas (Skip and Zip) were a pair of heel fitness fanatics who taunted their opponents and liked to do jumping jacks. Despite the fact that the gimmick was incredibly lame, the Bodydonnas still managed to become tag team champs, due in no small part to the popularity of their manager, Sunny.

Sunny had a bubbly personality that really shined through on-screen. The fact that she was an incredibly attractive woman didn't hurt either. At the height of her popularity, in 1996, America Online (AOL) claimed that she was the most downloaded celeb on the World Wide Web.

In essence, Sunny became one of WWE's most popular acts and an eventual Hall of Famer, while the Bodydonnas have been forgotten by all but the most hardcore of wrestling fans.

Skip (aka Chris Candido), Sunny's real-life boyfriend at the time, was a solid wrestler and would later find success in ECW. However, in WWE, it was Sunny who stole the show.
