Professional wrestling thread

Sunny's one person no one should be saying this thread is useless without photos. Sure, back in the WWE days she was hot, but now? No freakin' way.

 

I'm wondering how such a fall is accomplished. She was as good as it gets back in the day...

 

I saw her recently. Think it was one of the WWE/ECW pay-per-views if I'm not mistaken.

Just brutal. They made sure not to pan her keester, as it now looks like Umaga's.

 

Before...



After...

 

I hate to admit, I bought the book. It took me about two hours to read it from cover to cover, but there was a lot of good dirt in it. And some good pics besides.

 

MAJOR druggie. Her boyfriend, Chris Candido (Skip of the Bodydonnas of WWF fame) died a year or two ago. I think it was due to a wrestling-related injury, but he and she were booted out of the WWF and ECW for numerous drug-related problems over the years.

 

It wasn't that long ago Chris passed away. Maybe 9 or 10 months ago. And it was more of the drugs than the injury that caused his death.

 

Candido died April 28, 2005.

 

Candido suffered a freak broken ankle when he landed wrong after someone dropkicked him during a match on a PPV. He returned the next day, a Monday, to manage his tag team (The Naturals) for TV tapings (they won the tag team titles). On Tuesday, he was dead, apparently felled by a blood clot that went up his leg and killed him.

From all accounts, he had cleaned himself up in the time leading to his passing, and his death came as a great surprise to everyone. I don't think the drugs had quite the indirect effect they did on Eddie Guerrero.

 

So I was wrong on both counts. I guess I've just been reading the wrong sites for my information.

Meltzer's been the best for the last 20 years. I'd bet every wrestling fan in America has that site bookmarked.

 

Agreed. He also knows his MMA -- I interviewed him for a story I did on a UFC fighter who did a clinic nearby.

WWE has Eddie Guerrero's final match on its 24/7 online service free to the general public, a Smackdown match one year ago against Mr. Kennedy (Kennedy).
