Well, folks, let me tell ya ’bout this lady they call Sable. Now, her real name’s Rena Marlette Lesnar, but back in the day, she used to be called Rena Greek, and before that, Rena Mero. Born on August 8th, 1968, she’s a woman who done made a big name for herself, especially in the world of wrestling. She ain’t just any wrestler, mind you. She was more of a big deal in the WWF, now WWE, back when wrestling was all the rage in the late ’90s and early 2000s.
Ya see, Sable wasn’t just a wrestler, no sir! She was a model and an actress too. She’d pose for magazines, been on TV and in movies, and still made time to step into that wrestling ring. Now, it’s hard to believe now, but back in the day, people used to tune in every week just to watch her walk down that ramp in her flashy clothes. She had a presence, that’s for sure.
She first joined WWF back in 1996, and folks sure took notice of her. At first, she didn’t do much except look real good and show off that pretty smile, but soon enough, she got herself involved in the action. Her whole gimmick was being a manager and a valet, mostly for her husband at the time, Marc Mero. But as time went on, she got her own spotlight. People loved her and hated her, but nobody could ignore her.
Now, there’s something folks talk about when it comes to Sable’s time in WWF, and that’s the whole issue with unsafe working conditions. You see, back in 1999, after the tragic accident with Owen Hart, Sable started pointing fingers at the company for not keeping the wrestlers safe. The poor man fell from the ceiling during a stunt, and it was a mess. After that, Sable started complaining about how dangerous things were, and she didn’t want to put herself in harm’s way anymore. Can’t say I blame her, if you ask me.
But all that drama didn’t stop her from staying in the spotlight. No, ma’am. She made a return to WWF in 2003, and even though she was older, she still had that same star power. Some folks think she came back just for the money, but I think she just loved the attention. She kept her spot for a year or so, and after that, she said her goodbyes to the wrestling world for good in 2004.
Now, Sable’s not just remembered for her time in the ring. Folks also remember her for being a part of some pretty big moments. She was part of the Attitude Era, when things were real wild. She got into feuds with other women like Jacqueline and Tori, and those were some memorable matches. She even went on to win the Women’s Championship once, proving she wasn’t just there for the looks, but could wrestle too.
But what really made Sable stand out, more than anything, was how she carried herself. She had that real, raw confidence about her that made the crowd go wild. Folks either loved her or hated her, but they sure knew who she was. She had this way of talking, walking, and fighting that made it clear she wasn’t just some pretty face. She could hold her own, and that’s something a lot of people respected.
These days, Sable ain’t wrestling no more. She’s living a quieter life with her family, and even though she’s not in the limelight like before, she’s still a name folks remember when they talk about the good ol’ days of wrestling. Some folks might say she left at the top of her game, while others say she could’ve done more. But no matter how ya slice it, Sable made her mark, and that’s something no one can take away from her.
So, if you ever find yourself wondering who this Sable was, remember: she was a woman who came from nowhere, fought her way to the top, and left a legacy that folks still talk about to this very day.
