Titles Held: WWE Women's championship.

Biggest career moment: Her brief Championship run.

Issues on the microphone: Had trouble resonating with fans who weren't excitable teenage boys, poor delivery.

Sable, the current Mrs. Brock Lesnar and the former Mrs. Marc Mero, was in fact not a trained wrestler at all when WWE signed her to a contract.

Her then-husband, Mero, had been known as Johnny B Badd in WCW, and then the Wild Man in WWE. During Mero's contract negotiations, he brought along his wife. Vince McMahon took one look at her and hired her on the spot. For a time she functioned as a 'special attraction,' usually entailing her dressing and acting provocatively.

She would act as Mero's manager for a time and wound up embroiled in her own feud with Luna Vachon. Sable was barely trained for a few short matches with the veteran Luna, but she never set the world on fire as anything other than eye candy. These days she does not accompany her husband to the ring, and rarely makes appearances with him. Sable was a non-wrestler with little charisma who mainly got by on her looks.
