Sytch, the former WWE icon who was best known as Sunny during her time in WWE, talked about her life in prison on the Bird Calls podcast recently and opened up about strange requests for signed items and dished about her sex life.

Sytch was asked if her fellow prisoners knew about her fame and history in the squared circle as one of the hottest acts of her era. She said that before she was moved from county lockup to Lowell Correctional Institution, there were a few odd asks – some for very personal items.
“One girl asked for my prison ID, for me to sign it so she could take it home and sell it on eBay. And I said no,” she said. “And then another girl, believe it or not, had the balls to ask me for my underwear, to sign my underwear, so she can bring it home and sell it on eBay. I was like, absolutely not.”

Then the conversation turned to Sytch’s sex life behind bars — or rather lack thereof.
“I love men, but when you’re here you really don’t have an option,” she said. “If you want any kind of affection or connection with anyone, it’s a girl-girl thing, you have no choice.
“But there’s really nobody that would be up to par for me, so I might have to wait a little while until somebody of quality comes in.”
She also was asked what life was like without having sex.
“It’s already been 22 months without it and let me tell you it’s rough. It’s like you become a virgin again, it’s insane,” she added.
As Sunny, she was known as the first WWE Diva and was wildly popular after debuting in the mid-90s. After her release in 1998 amid rumours of a painkiller addition, she joined ECW and later WCW with boyfriend Chris Candido. She made a few appearances with WWE in the late ’00s and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2011.
Sytch is serving a 17-year sentence resulting from a 2022 crash in Daytona Beach that killed a 75-year-old man.
She was arrested for DUI and also later charged with driving with a suspended license, DUI with damage to person and DUI with damage to property. She pleaded no contest to all counts and was sentenced in Nov. 2023.
She has a history of DUIs, with multiple arrests in Pennsylvania and New Jersey since 2012.
