While most of the Nitro Girls seemingly phased out of pro wrestling and even cheerleading, two others specifically went on to make bigger names for themselves in the industry. Stacy Keibler — known as “Skye” — was the biggest breakout name of the bunch; initially becoming a Nitro Girl in 1999 after winning the Nitro Girl Search, she would go on to enjoy a lot of success in WWE and even get inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Sharmell Sullivan-Huffman – or “Storm” – went on to manage The Artist after her time as a Nitro Girl, and would later appear in WWE alongside her husband, Booker T, as well as in TNA and would also be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
Seoul-born Nitro Girl, Chae An, similarly had a background as a cheerleader for the Atlanta Falcons before becoming one of the OG Nitro Girls. Rumor has it that Chae An had an affair with Kevin Nash during their shared WCW tenure, especially when the veteran cut a promo making a suggestive remark. Years after her run with WCW, Chae An went on to become an entrepreneur, filing a patent for a handbag she financed through a KickStarter campaign. Rebecca Curci – “Whisper” – would go on to marry none other than Shawn Michaels leaving the Nitro Girls, starting a family with the WWE Hall of Famer, while appearing various times on WWE television alongside her husband.
