Thank to Mark B. for sending along the following: Hey, I was on the USA Pro Wrestling message board tonight and found this interesting post from Tammy Sytch concerning her future. Her and Candido have posted there a little often lately, here's what she said:
I FORGOT TO MENTION, I AM RETIRING THIS YEAR. I'TS (sic) ALMOST 14 YEARS IN THIS BIZ, IT'S NOT FUN OR WORTH THE AGGRIVATION (sic) ANYMORE. I HAVE A FEW MORE SHOWS AND TWO OVERSEAS TOURS BOOKED, AND THEN I AM BECOMING A FLIGHT ATTENDANT. MY LEG HASN'T FULLY RECOVERD (sic) FROM A YEAR AGO DECEMBER 5TH---I TORE MY RIGHT QUADRICEP MUSCLE IN TEXAS IN A MATCH, AND I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO TRAIN CORRECTLY FOR A YEAR NOW. SO, YOU CAN SAY WHAT YOU WANT ABOUT MY CURRENT PHYSICAL CONDITION, BUT I AM INJURED AND I REALLY DON'T GIVE A S*** ABOUT OPINIONS. IF YOU DON'T APPRECIATE MY WORK AND WHAT I'VE DONE FOR THIS BIZ, THEN, GET UP AND GO TO THE BATHROOM DURING MY MATCHES. I REALLY WON'T MISS THIS STUFF BECAUSE IT BASICALLY IS A CRUEL AND DEMEANING BUSINESS. IT DID A LOT FOR ME AND CC, BUT I DON'T HAVE THE PASSION FOR IT ANY MORE. SO, MAYBE I CAN SERVE YOU ALL A DRINK AND PRETZELS ON CONTINENTAL AIRLINES!! TA TA FOR NOW--TAM
Its kind of sad how she has fallen after her run in the WWF. I cant imagine her as a flight attendant though. Thats just too weird.
Seriously, this is like Bret Hart writing an article for tomorrow's Sun where he announces his retirement from in-ring action.

Wrestling exists in the eternal present. What is, has always been, and when it no longer is, it never was. It has no past and no future, and sometimes even today is in question. - Madame Manga
Blah blah blah. Jeez, how about bowing out with a little grace? Did she say one positive thing in there? No, she just raised herself above all possible criticism and without so much as a thank-you. Even if her momentum didn't maintain, whose fault is that? She was pilling up long before she started taking bumps in the ring. She couldn't handle the business, and for that what can you say but too bad for her. Good, get out while you still can, but don't expect anyone to sit through a lecture about what you did for the business. She was a valet, and not even a particularly good one. Forgive me for having missed the revolution.
I'd tell you to kiss my ass, but I don't want to get it infected.
She was a wrestler? Man, I thought she was just supposed to stand around and look pretty. Heaven forbid she had to actually *earn* her money like Molly, Victoria & Trish and LEARN HOW TO WRESTLE. Good riddance.

Yes, but when she was at her peak, she was the most popular female EVER in the sport. EVER. And, I am sure she made the WWE more money than the other divas combined, with the possible exception of Sable and Chyna.

I don't know about that, Lita and Trish both sold non-photo merchandise and last 4 years WWE really pushed the diva franchise with speciality magazines and DVD's
Now saying that I was a big Tammy fan. For her time and what was her role, I thought she was very good, definitely one of the best in pure valet/Female personality I've seen in wrestling. She had a certain charm and charisma that only a few have matched... I still can't believe WWE choose Sable over Sunny, who I thought Sable wasn't even in her league. Wasn't Sunny one of the few who protest the Bret/ Montreal happening. She seemed like someone who understood and appreciate the business.

Get your WWE CD copy autographed by Stone Cold Steve Austin, Chris Jericho, Trish Stratus and Lilian Garcia after Raw... Oh MY! Christmas has come late. Can't get better then that.
I thought she was great. It's a pity she was let go. She was one of the most beautiful women in WWE history for me. She came across as having a great personality in 'Wrestling With Shadows'. I was only remined of here the other day while wathing the Cactus/Candido match on DVD. Real shame.
a thank you would've been nice, she did turn playboy down, she was the best diva wwf ever produced when Tammy was in her prime she was 10 times better then anyone they have now, to bad things turned out crappy fro her, but i`m sure down the road she screwed up a lot, thus she is very bitter. I hope her new career will make her happier than wrestling.
The way that post was written, it wouldn't surprise me if it was someone else posting as her and turned out to be a hoax.
Every previously written Tammy/Candido update (which she did regularly back in 1999) was written in the exact same style.
It's also the #1 reason I have had a real hard time catching on to the idea she's writing for Hyatte's column with great spelling and punctuation but can't spit out a well written paragraph about her retirement.

I think Elizabeth in her prime was more popular than Sunny.
Proud to have been a participant in the most spectacularly stupid group efforts on this forum.

I know many of you heard by now about the flight the wwe wrestlers had that made Jones decide to "retire" and scared a lot of wrestlers, but what the hell happened on that plane? and with the plane?
