The Tragic Death Of Wrestler Nicole Bass

Although Bass didn't receive as much mainstream attention as the late Chyna did, the native New Yorker is still synonymous during WWE's infamous "Attitude Era," eventually going on to serve as a bodyguard for Justin Credible, wrestling on the independent circuit, and booking public events for a living.

Little did Bass know that, as she was gaining traction in the wrestling world, trouble would soon follow. Wrestler Sable, whom Bass assisted as a bodyguard during her time in the WWF, sued the company for $100 million in 1999, detailing harassment such as men "accidentally" walking into the women's locker room and a peephole being cut into a wall on at least one occasion, according to Deadspin.

Bass herself sued the WWF for $120 million, alleging that she had been wrongfully terminated from the company. She also claimed that the company discriminated against women by paying them less than men and that she had been sexually assaulted by another performer during travel to an event in the U.K. All the allegations were denied, and a New York City jury ruled against Bass in 2002.
