Ehh, she was actually relatively significant in the division at the time. It just doesn't seem like it because it was at a time when the company as a whole was in a downturn, and the women's division was still mostly just a joke.

...because the division was tiny at the time, so even the jobbers were relatively significant at the time. (Not that I'm saying she was a jobber and I'll also admit that I liked her towards the beginning of her run.)

And she really only retired because her daughter had medical issues and she needed to stay home to care for her, so it's not like they dropped her or she faded into obscurity by virtue of a lack of talent.

I don't remember her having much in the way of talent.

but one of the major reasons her death became more of a story is because it helped throw more light on the fact that she'd previously sued the WWE over allegations that she'd been raped during one of the company's tours to support the troops in Kuwait, but company officials just brushed it off and pressured her into not saying anything about it publically (which is 110% believable based on literally everything we know about how upper management works in the WWE). There were implications that her suicide might have been related to it (ie, she never really got over the trauma and only really held off on killing herself as long as she did because she had to take care of her daughter until she was an adult).

Something I'll have to look into, but the supposition surrounding her death is in somewhat poor taste, considering that she had a whole life outside the WWE and she hadn't worked for the WWE in like a decade.
