BASS ADMITS JOKING ABOUT THE WWE LAWSUIT
Nicole Bass is not doing herself any favors in her lawsuit against World Wrestling
Entertainment as yesterday she admitted that on September 28th 1999, she went
on the Howard Stern show and joked about her lawsuit with the company. She then
went on and complained that she was hit by a non-gimmicked guitar which was
split into pieces by going through her head. The NY Post also reports that yesterday
Bass was questioned by Steve Lombardi's attorney Laura Brevetti. Bass claims
that Lombardi - known as the Brooklyn Brawler - crushed his body into hers and
grabbed her breasts while on a plane on the way to a UK tour. She said that
during the flight where the incident allegedly occurred, she ate two dinners,
dozed, helped flight attendants pass out chocolates and schmoozed with other
female wrestlers.
