Extreme Championship Wrestling
Nicole Bass debuted in Extreme Championship Wrestling in 1998. She aligned herself with and began to manage Justin Credible.
World Wrestling Entertainment
Bass then joined the WWE, then known as the WWF, making her first appearance at WrestleMania XV on March 28, 1999 as Sable's bodyguard. She became involved in an extended feud with Debra McMichael, which culminated in a mixed tag match pitting Bass and Val Venis against Jeff Jarrett and Debra at the 1999 WWF Over the Edge. Bass was then aligned with Venis until she accidentally whacked him with Jarrett's guitar after losing a bikini contest to Debra. The following week, she interfered in a match between Debra and Ivory, with Debra losing her WWF Women's title due to Nicole's interference. This led to a brief alliance between Bass and Ivory, which ended abruptly when Bass left the WWF and filed a lawsuit against the organization for sexual harassment, claiming she was sexually assaulted backstage. Steve Lombardi was accused. In 2003 the case went to court and was ultimately dismissed.[5]
Post World Wrestling Entertainment
Bass continues to wrestle on the independent wrestling circuit taking bookings through her official website. Bass also does bookings for public events and for personal training[6].
