My baptism in the Catholic church did nothing for me.

It can’t because it’s powerless to do anything.

Getting wet does not save anyone.

You mean you actually got wet much? We know baptism is sppsd to signify death, being buried, cleansed and raised by the Spirit to walk in newness of life. (Rm. 6:1-1ff; Acts 22:16) But you know what happens to a dead body that is not buried in death but is only sprinkled with dirt? "Surely he stinketh!"
