WWE Hall of Famer Torrie Wilson has said she found work with WCW after Kevin Nash stumbled across her posing in a bikini.
After winning Miss Galaxy in 1999, Wilson joined WCW shortly after and would join the WWF after the former’s demise in 2001.
Speaking on Generation Iron Fitness Network, Wilson recalled meeting Nash during a visit with her then-boyfriend to a WCW event. She said,
“I didn’t know who any of them were, but I was taking pictures with Bill Goldberg and some people. Then I met Kevin Nash, and he was like, ‘I saw you in a green bikini in a magazine, and we have this storyline idea. Would you be interested in doing it, working with Ric Flair?’ And it was just like acting segments, and so I said yeah.”
Wilson’s debut angle would see her try and seduce David Flair, who would become her real-life boyfriend though the pair are no longer together.
