I remember at the 1992 Summerslam event, Shawn Michaels' valet, Sherri Martel, wore a very revealing outfit - assless chaps and a thong to be specific. I was six or seven years old at the time but I considered WWE to be something of a children's product at the time. I always wondered if she got any sort of punishment for wearing such a revealing outfit at that time.

You mean this? As far a punishment goes, I think this may have been a dig a Sherri by management via a WWF comic book:

She also wore a revealing top at Royal Rumble 92 with Ted Dibiase and wore it in some pics with Michaels.
Sherri was very beautiful but the Scarry Sherri gimmick overshadowed that for a long time. The Summerslam outfit is amazing especially for the time.
I wish she had been around during the Raw Magazine/AOL download/Attitude Era time to do some photo shoots. She was getting older but had the body to show off.
As for her as a manager she came along for Savage, Dibiase and Michaels in a time when they needed an extra something to boost them. She added a lot to Harlem Heat who were in WCW for about a year but had yet to really get over with the crowd until managed by Sherri.

Sherri does hold the distinction of being the first woman to wear a visible thing on WWE television.

I remember an old Coliseum video of various matches from a European tour, when she was the Sensational Queen and she was wearing a dress and interfered in the match, Hogan proceeds to giver her an atomic drop and she lands with her dress up around her head, in a thong and garters. The camera man seizes the opportunity and goes for the close up of her magnificent ass and as a 10 year old I was in Heaven.

This early photo of her has gotta be one of my favorite wrestling images ever.

I remember the jokes Vince and Bobby cracked at SummerSlam '92.
Vince: Is that Jupiter? Bobby: No, that's the moon!
Vince: Boy, in the States there's a show called Twin Peaks but ... Bobby: Cheeks? Vince: No, peaks.

My dad and I saw the Ultimate Warrior face Srgt. Slaughter in a cage in the early 90s and Sherri was managing Slaughter (He was a replacement for Savage). At one point Sherri climbed the cage and Warrior pulled her skirt down. Needless to say at the time, I was quite shocked and it was a conversation my dad and I had for a while. lol

If I had been a teenager at the time or older, I would've definitely had it bad for her. Plus, dare I say it, I think she was a better manager/valet for Randy Savage than Elizabeth was (Heck, look at my avatar!). She wasn't afraid to get involved in the matches, could match Randy in the "insane promo" department, made Randy's "heel" persona at the time even more "sinister" in a way, and all while looking good doing it. "Scary Sherri" my a$$!

I remember having the biggest crush on Sherri when I was 15. The slutty yet classy outfits she wore when managing HBK stood out during a time when a woman rarely showed skin in WWF.

Wow. Sherri was all types of beautiful. That she was. She still looked as fine as ever when she returned for the Michaels/Angle feud in 2005.

And I can tell you, as somebody that had the incredible good fortune to know Sherri personally and become good friends with her, that she was the nicest, most humble, and unselfish person I have ever known in the business. She was an absolute angel, and it breaks my heart to this day that she is gone. She was one of a kind in every way.

This early photo of her has gotta be one of my favorite wrestling images ever. Not saying she looks like a dude, saying that that picture gave me distinct Frank N. Furter vibes with the make-up, hair, and cape.
