Former WWE Diva and adult film star Tammy Sytch, known by her in-ring name Sunny, admitted to wrestling without sex in prison.
Sytch, 51, is serving a 17-year sentence at Lowell Correctional Institution in Florida after causing a car crash while three times over the legal alcohol limit. The pileup left a 75-year-old man dead.
On Thursday Sytch appeared on the Bird Calls Podcast and opened up about her lack of intimacy and other struggles behind bars.
“It’s been 22 months without it and I can tell you it’s tough,” she said. “It’s like becoming a virgin again, it’s crazy.”
Sytch added that getting a girlfriend into the facility is not an option. She claimed: ‘I’ve never liked girls, I’ve never kissed a girl. I’m strictly damned.’

‘I love men, but when you’re here you really don’t have a choice. If you want any kind of affection or connection with anyone, it’s a girl-girl thing, you have no choice.
‘But there is actually no one who can match me, so I may have to wait a while until someone of good quality comes in.’
In addition, Sytch told how her fellow inmates had asked for her underwear to sell on eBay.
“One girl asked for my personal ID, for me to sign it so she could take it home and sell it on eBay, and I said ‘no,’ and another girl, believe it or not, has the balls to asking me for my underwear.
“She wanted me to sign my underwear so she could take it home and sell it on eBay. I told her there was no way that would happen.”
Sunny debuted in the WWF in 1995 before the organization was renamed WWE. Her in-ring persona famously managed icons such as the Legion of Doom during her three-year run with Vince McMahon’s company.
With the WWF, Sytch became the most downloaded celebrity on AOL, surpassing Pamela Anderson, Jennifer Aniston and Mariah Carey. In 1995, she joined rival promotion Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) as Tammy Lynn Sytch.

After her career in professional wrestling, Sytch went on to star in adult films, while also offering webcam sessions on Skype. Upon her arrival at the prison, she claimed that some people were “intimidated by her celebrity.”
“No one really comes up to me and says anything,” she said on the podcast. ‘But then I hear people talking about me.
“I don’t know if I’m intimidating or what it is, but usually it takes a few days for someone to finally say, ‘Hey, I know who you are.’ When I got to the front desk two months ago, I found out that the entire complex had been talking about me for three weeks before I knew it.”
Sytch was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2011. However, the following year marked the beginning of her frequent run-ins with the law. Sytch was in and out of jail for disorderly conduct, drunken driving and domestic violence.
She began her sentence for the car accident in March 2022 and was labeled a ‘danger to society’ during the court hearing.
