The Nitro Girls

Centered around Kimberly Page, the group generally consisted of a roster of seven members, all of whom had some degree of professional dance experience.

Their initial function was to dance and entertain the live crowds during commercial breaks of WCW Monday Nitro as well as engage in promotional work for the company,[1] however, beginning in late 1999, many of the members began to become involved in wrestling storylines and acted as valets and managers to the wrestlers.

The Nitro Girls were formed in 1997 by Kimberly Page at Eric Bischoff's request and made their debut on July 14 in Orlando, Florida.

As the group became more and more involved in storylines, it slowly dissolved, but never officially broke up until 2001 when WCW was sold to Vince McMahon's World Wrestling Federation.

On the November 1, 1999, episode of Nitro, Kimberly quit the group as a result of her husband being injured by David Flair; she then ran him over with her car.

Stacy Keibler began appearing as Miss Hancock (the manager for the tag team Standards and Practices) before going to the WWE.

Stacy Keibler earned her way into the group by winning a contest held in late 1999.
As part of the Nitro Girls transforming roles, Sharmell Sullivan transitioned from the character of Nitro Girl Storm to Paisley.
