[edit] Early life

Other former notable Dobie alumni are: The Undertaker (who attended freshman-junior years before moving to Dallas, and still holds school weightlifting records); two members of techno group Fear 2 Stop; and former major league relief pitcher Shane Nance. ^{[citation needed]}

[edit] WWE

She stayed with the company for two years after her Tough Enough contract expired, debuting on the Smackdown brand as Jamie Noble's girlfriend in the summer of 2002. She led Noble to the WWE Crusierweight title by assisting him in a victory over The Hurricane at the '02 King of the Ring. She also feuded with fellow Smackdown! diva Torrie Wilson, leading to many mixed tag team matches with Guenard and Noble against Wilson and various other Cruiserweights as her partner. Guenard was "blinded" by Tajiri during a match between Tajiri and Noble after taking his "black mist." Following this Nidia appeared at ringside with sunglasses to sell the injury. During this time, Noble would throw Nidia in front of various opponents to save himself and later claim she was being attacked. Rey Mysterio enlightened her of this, resulting in Guenard turning on Noble. The two feuded, which culminating in a match at the '04 No Way Out in which Noble had to wear a blindfold. Noble cheated to win by removing the blindfold.

Nidia was drafted to the Raw Brand in the Spring of 2004, where she became a face. She regularly teamed with Stacy Keibler and Victoria against heels Trish Stratus, Gail Kim, Molly Holly, and Jazz. She was ultimately released on November 3, 2004 along with Gail Kim and Chuck Palumbo. Although not featured in any of the PS2 WWE games, she did appear in two Xbox WWE games: WWE RAW 2 & WWE WrestleMania 21.

After being released by WWE, Nidia wrestled in many independent promotions and tours including Kishi's Nu-Wrestling Evolution in Italy and Ultimo Dragon's Toryumon Mexico.

Although WWE management considered rehiring her in mid-2006, those plans fell through. Nidia then decided to hang up her wrestling gear for the foreseeable future.

During a recent interview, Nidia stated she is settling with her current boyfriend in Italy, teaching yoga classes, and gave birth to their daughter Lilith Fae Dal Bosco in April 2007.
