Nicole Bass was a freakish bodybuilder that got involved in wrestling by starting in ECW in 1998. A year later she was in WWE. It was not a great move by WWE. Perhaps WWE thought they could find a good use for her since Chyna was a muscular woman that had a productive career, but Bass wasn't nearly as good as her. She just seemed out of place. At least with Chyna you could tell she was a fan of the business that understood what worked. Bass didn't seem to know how to make the right facial expressions or look like she was interested in things. Bass was brought in as Sable's bodyguard around WrestleMania 15 in 1999, but Sable left the company soon after and then there was no use for Bass. They put her in a feud with Debra that didn't work. You may recall that she was in a mixed tag with Val Venis against Jeff Jarrett & Debra where Val became attracted to Nicole because she kicked ass in the ring. She didn't last in WWE much longer. Her tenure lasted less than a year. She left WWE after claiming that she was sexually harassed by Steve Lombardi (Brooklyn Brawler), but the case was thrown out and Bass had no more involvement with WWE after that.
