Nikki is an American sitcom that aired on The WB from October 9, 2000, to January 27, 2002.

Plot
Cox portrays Nikki White, a Las Vegas showgirl living in Las Vegas with her husband Dwight White (Nick von Esmarch), a professional wrestler. The couple was portrayed as working class, attempting to follow their passions while finding fame and fortune in Las Vegas.
One of the show's central themes was of Dwight's mother constantly being angry with Nikki for "luring" her son into a marriage and away from a safe, secure job with a future. She believed her son was destined for better things, and settled for a career as a wrestler instead of pursuing a career as a tax attorney.
A total of 41 episodes were ordered, produced, and filmed, but due to low ratings, Nikki was cancelled in January 2002. Only 35 episodes were aired, the last being "She Was a Job-Jumper", on January 27, 2002.
