Nicole Bass, who parlayed her unique look and fame from the Howard Stern show into a brief pro wrestling career, has died, according to a post by a friend on Bass’ Facebook page. She was 52.

Bass had been dealing with health and financial issues in the last several years along with the death of her husband.

“A few days ago Nicole got very sick,” her friend Kristen Marrone posted on Bass’ Facebook page Thursday night. “She was brought into the hospital and they did everything they could to help her. I have been sitting here with her in the room 24/7 since she got here making sure she was being given the best possible care. Today we learned that there is nothing else that can be done.”

ProWrestlingSheet reported that Bass was brain dead and was planned to be taken off life support Friday.

The report said the message of her death was prematurely posted on Facebook because the friend "felt as though Nicole was already gone."

Marrone responded: "If its not been posted by me on her page or mine its nothing more than rumor. I will not be talking to anyone. Anything shared with her fans will be posted personally by myself to her official pages. Nicole kept her private life to herself. Respect that."

Bass was a bodybuilder in the 1990s and her physical size and deep voice made her part of a long-standing routine on the Stern show in which he questioned whether she was a woman.

She spent a few months in ECW, serving as a bodyguard for Justin Credible, and was signed by the then-WWF during The Attitude Era as a surprise for WrestleMania XX in Philadelphia. Her role was to be Sable’s bodyguard. She was released after several months.

After her release, she sued WWF for $120 million, alleging that she was wrongly terminated, that she had been sexually assaulted by another performer during travel to an event in England and that the company discriminated against women by paying them less than men. The company and the performer denied the allegations. After a three-week trial, a New York City jury ruled for the WWF in 2002.

Laurence Holmes is a fucking weirdo, a nerd in denial, and a wannabe. Not a very good radio host either.

If you hate Laurence, then don't listen - don't comment. When he co-hosts the B&B show, take that day off ... listen to an old podcast of a Bernstein solo show and jerk off all day.

The menstrual cycle changes among Hassidic Jewish women was something as well.

Howard had Robin check under his undies and came away not sure, probably had his dick cut off and turned into a mutilated partial gash.

Fred did a great voice mimicking it.

I went to high school with her cousin, Nick Tenor.

I rarely troll.

It's been a rough few years for the Wack Pack.

Jeff the Drunk and High Pitch Erik better be careful.

I don't think Bigfoot is in the greatest of health either.

Is that Starla from Napoleon Dynamite?

Just sitting here, thinking of who it could be.
But I don't want to incriminate anyone w/ false accusations.
Let's just say it's someone who likes muscular women.

I am not a legal expert, how many times do I have to say it?

HHH

They can all drop dead as long as Miss Howard Stern survives.

Les Grobstein's huge hog is proof that God has a sense of humor, isn't it?

I don't know if I have ever heard anybody laugh as long, and as hard as Artie did, when Andrea told Howard that her daughter's name was Beyonce.
