BIOGRAPHY
Tammy Lynn Sytch (born December 7, 1972 in Matawan, New Jersey) was a professional wrestling diva for ECW, WCW, WWE and various independent promotions. She achieved her greatest success as Sunny in WWF in the mid to late 1990s.

Tammy started out traveling with her boyfriend, Chris Candido. She did some camera work for the New Jersey-based WWA. She first appeared onscreen as Tamara Murphy Fytch in Smoky Mountain Wrestling in 1993. She played a rich, spoiled brat, who was billed as having come from Wellesley College. Tammy Fytch became extremely hated by the fans in Smoky Mountain. She managed Candido, Brian Lee and Boo Bradley. Both Sytch and Candido would leave the promotion in December 1994 for jobs with the World Wrestling Federation.

In late 1994, Tammy, as Tamara Murphy, began appearing on "Live Event News" segments during World Wrestling Federation television shows where she would promote local WWF house show events. Tammy and Chris appeared on a handful of WWF shows as Team Spirit, a short-lived gimmick similar to (but pre-dating) the recurring Saturday Night Live "Spartan Cheerleaders" skit, and similar to the later "Spirit Squad". However, the gimmick never made its way on to television. By the summer of 1995, Tammy and Chris were renamed Sunny and Skip. They began appearing on WWF television as the heel fitness fanatics, The Bodydonnas. In 1996, she became America Online's most downloaded woman thanks to her risque pictorials that were offered exclusively from AOL. In 1996, she won two Slammy Awards, "Best Buns" and "Best Manager". She also won Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Manager of the Year Award. Sunny was also featured on Entertainment Tonight. Sunny then began an angle where she manipulated Phineas Godwinn of the World Tag Team Championship duo The Godwinns, into believing she was interested in him; but she then turned on The Godwinns and helped the Smokin' Gunns win the WWF World Tag Team Championship. However, Sytch would get her just deserts as Phineas dumped a bucket of "slop" on Sunny in a memorable moment.

During this time, she became known as "The Clique Chick" backstage due to her spending a lot of time with the members of the Clique. Candido had problems with the Clique members, and eventually she tapered off her associations with them before stopping altogether.

With little for her to do, Sunny began a short career as a guest ring announcer, referee, and t-shirt model after briefly becoming the manager of Faarooq Asad. At the same time, she began having legitimate off-screen problems with Sable. Candido left the WWF for ECW without Tammy and it wasn't long before Sunny began making guest appearances in ECW with him as well.

In 1998, Sunny briefly became the manager for the reformed Road Warriors as "LOD 2000". This was her final position with the company before her release in mid-summer 1998. The company released her after repeated no-shows, and questionable excuses, particularly when she told Linda McMahon she had miscarried after missing a weekend of shows. She then couldn't produce any medical documentation and they insisted she check into rehab. She refused and was subsequently released from the company.

Once released from the WWF, she officially made the announcement at HeatWave '98 that she was now a full-time ECW employee. Now billed as Tammy Lynn Sytch, she assisted Chris Candido in his win over Lance Storm but as their feud moved forward, Storm introduced his own valet "Tammy Lynn Bytch". The quartet had several very well received mixed tag team matches against each other including one infamous one where Bytch (later known as Dawn Marie) lifted up Sunny's skirt and spanked her with a paddle. Candido being a member of the Triple Threat (where Shane Douglas was being managed by Francine) eventually led to a Francine/Sytch feud which caused the group to break up. In October 1999 on an episode of ECW on TNN, Paul Heyman got Sytch to talk openly about her past drug issues, but being reformed. Candido and Sytch would leave the promotion in December 1999.

In between a brief stop for Xtreme Pro Wrestling in early 2000, both Tammy and Candido signed on with World Championship Wrestling. While in WCW, she managed Candido to a WCW Cruiserweight title win at Spring Stampede 2000 in her debut for the promotion. During her WCW run, she feuded with Paisley while Candido feuded with The Artist Formerly Known as Prince Iaukea. The short-lived feud came to a conclusion at Slamboree 2000 when The Artist Formally Known as Prince Iaukea and Paisley stripped Tammy's dress off to reveal her undergarments. Her undergarments consisted of yellow colored hotpants and a midriff-bearing tube top. Shortly there after, Tammy began feuding with Daffney, but was released a few weeks later amid allegations of drug abuse in light of a syringe being found in the women's bathroom by one of the other females in the company. Sytch would later claim that the allegations were false.

After being released from WCW, the duo landed in Xtreme Pro Wrestling where she managed Candido to a title (the XPW World Heavyweight Title) once again. Candido and Sytch would part ways with XPW and they started touring other independent wrestling promotions. In the meantime, Sytch formed a business relationship with Missy Hyatt and the two created the adult website Wrestling Vixxxens in July 2001. Along with a few other women loosely affiliated with wrestling at the time, they would pose nude for the website and charge people for it. Sytch justified her decision to pose nude by saying that she "left a little to the imagination" in contrast to the other girls posing for the site. Sytch later admitted that she was uncomfortable at times in regards to doing certain poses, especially in scenes in which she would be forced to pose in the buff. The one pose in which Sytch had no qualms about was in scenerios in which she simply wore a thong and pointed her amply-sized buttocks to the camera - which required no nudity to be shown. Less than two years later, Sytch left the project due to monetary issues, not to mention that she had a personal falling out with Hyatt. Sytch claimed that their friendship ended when she woke up one night to find Hyatt using crack cocaine and she didn't want to be associated with a drug user because she believed that people would perceive her as being one as well. When asked about Sytch in subsequent online interviews, Hyatt would frequently poke fun at Sytch's recent weight gain. Sytch would later admit that posing for the site was a mistake on her part.

In the spring of 2003, Sytch & Candido moved to Puerto Rico and were set to work for Victor Quinones' International Wrestling Association promotion. However, Sabu convinced them to work for Carlos Colon's rival World Wrestling Council promotion instead. The couple agreed on a two-year contract at $800 per week. However, their pay decreased with each passing week until they were only making $150. Within due time, they started having problems in regards to simply receiving paychecks. Meanwhile, they believed that the working conditions were horrible because the fans would throw batteries, cups of urine, and other objects at both her and Chris whenever they made their way to the ring. After six months, the couple quit the promotion and headed back to the States. Upon their return to the States, both Sytch and Candido briefly lived with former ECW wrestler Hack Myers in his home in Florida. However, Sytch soured on the experience when she felt that Myers was using her as a "road wife." Myers wanted Sytch to cook and clean the house for him, which didn't go over too well with her. As soon as Candido was booked for a USA Pro Wrestling show, the pair boarded a plane to New York and never returned to Florida. Sytch started to regularly appear on independent wrestling shows again shortly there after.

In January 2004, Sytch announced on the USA Pro Wrestling message board that she was planning on retiring from the sport by the end of the year and that she was going to become a flight attendant. Sytch stated that she had lost her passion for the business because she believed it was cruel and demeaning in light of some fans' comments regarding her personal life and recent weight gain. In a 2004 interview, Candido cited that no matter how well she performed, people would only pay attention to her increased figure. [1] However, Sytch reneged on her word as she has appeared on several indy wrestling shows since then - and still continues to do so to this day. Sytch later stated that she was simply kidding in regards to becoming a flight attendant and that she didn't really mean it. A few months later, Sytch would engage herself in another outside-the-ring venture as she started running a tanning salon in May 2004. However, Sytch would leave the salon business one year later due to a business dispute.

On April 24, 2005 at the TNA Lockdown PPV, Candido fractured both his tibia and fibula and dislocated his ankle when Sonny Siaki landed awkwardly on his leg while performing a leg lariat. He underwent surgery on April 25 to have steel plates and screws inserted into his leg. Sytch picked Chris up from the airport and he was only given pain medication and no antibiotics, which are normally given after surgery. Candido wasn't feeling well and got worse during the day. Sytch ended up having to convince Chris to go to the hospital where he was diagnosed with pneumonia. Doctors wanted to drain Candido's lungs, but he didn't want to be sedated. The doctors eventually convinced Candido to go under while they drained his lungs. Twenty minutes later, doctors told Sytch that Candido had died. Candido died on April 28, 2005 due to, according to his brother Johnny Candito, acute pneumonia caused by complications from surgery to repair a broken ankle that he suffered at TNA pay-per-view.

Sytch made her first wrestling appearance since Candido's death for Women's Extreme Wrestling on May 7, 2005 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She gave a short speech before the show began after they had a ten-bell salute to honor Candido. She then managed indy women's wrestler Talia while wearing one of Candido's ring jackets. Sytch was briefly hospitalized for a minor nervous breakdown the same weekend but was soon released.

After the passing of Chris Candido, it did not take long for Sytch to become regularly involved in the independent circuit again. Sytch made appearances as a referee for NWS Wrestling in May 2005 and attended a Chris Candido Memorial Show on June 4, 2005. Also, Sytch was a part of Hardcore Homecoming on June 10, 2005. She first came out with Johnny Grunge and Pit Bull #1 to do a tribute to former ECW wrestlers who had recently died. Among those honored were Chris Candido, Pit Bull #2 and Rocco Rock. They were interrupted by Danny Doring and Roadkill, but 911 cleared them out of the ring. 911 then proceeded to pick up Sytch and place her on his shoulder. In a bit of a humorous moment, 911's knee buckled due to Sytch's overwhelming weight and they both toppled to the canvas. Sytch proceeded to laugh it off. After the show, a Q & A session was held and donations for the Chris Candido Scholarship Fund were taken. A donor contributed $700, and Tammy stated that she would flash her breasts to anybody who topped the amount. Another donor paid $800 and Tammy flashed him in what was said to be the highlight of the session. Also note, Sytch had crutches in tow during the Q & A session.

During this time period, Sytch considered the New Jersey-based NWA Cyberspace to be her primary wrestling promotion. According to her, the promotion had always treated her well and she considered several of the people involved with the company to be "family." Among the people she had managed in the promotion included the tag team All Money Is Legal, Kip James, Andy Douglas, Chase Stevens, and Sabu. One of the more memorable moments of Sytch's Cyberspace tenure occured on the September 25, 2005 show in which she engaged in catfight with Julio Dinero's valet Miss Michelle. Sytch chased her around the ring and was finally able to trample the petite valet with her excess girth. Sytch ferociously attacked and beat on Miss Michelle for several seconds but Dinero eventually came over and shoved her upside down and off of his beaten valet. An embarrassed Sytch would hastily pull her skirt down when she realized that it had stuck up to reveal her amply sized buttocks in a minuscule pink thong. Later in the show, John Shane attacked Sytch when her back was turned - which left her laid out - thus starting her heated feud with the rival manager and his protégé Rhino. On the November 19, 2005 Cyberspace show, Sytch would wrestle John Shane. After the match had concluded, Sytch was on the receiving end of Rhino's finishing maneuver, the Gore. This was not her only encounter with the maneuver as she was also Gored by Rhino on March 25, 2006 at another NWA Cyberspace show after his match with Sabu. Sytch suffered a broken rib as a result of the maneuver. Tammy's feud with John Shane came to a conclusion on May 21, 2006 as Rhino, seconded by John Shane, defeated Kip James in a "Loser's Manager Retires" match. Due to the match stipulation, Sytch was forced to leave the promotion.

Soon after Sytch's departure from NWA Cyberspace, the New Jersey-based National Wrestling Superstars (NWS) became her new primary wrestling promotion. She appeared on a handful the promotion's shows in the summer. In an interesting pairing, Sytch managed Lex Luger at the June 3, 2006 NWS show. Sytch led Luger to victory as he defeated Johnny Candito. Candito was accompanied to the ring by Dawn Marie - who happened to be making her first appearance in a wrestling ring since giving birth. In Sytch's next NWS appearance, she made an all too rare in-ring wrestling appearance as she teamed up with Trent Acid to wrestle Salvatore Sincere and Hammy in an intergender tag team match at the "2nd Annual King and Queen of the Ring Tournament" on July 14, 2006. Hammy is a parody aimed towards Sytch. The parody poked fun at Sytch's weight by having an obese male wrestler (Saddam Insane) being billed as "Hammy, formerly Bunny of the WWWF" come out dressed in drag. Sytch got her revenge and hit the Stunner on Hammy for the win. Prior to the bout, a presentation was held from The Manasquan Elks Lodge to the Chris Candido Memorial Fund. The Elks Lodge donated $500 to the fund, with the money being used towards a scholarship for a Manasquan High School student. During her next NWS appearance, Sytch came out waving the American Flag to signify her cohesiveness with The Patriot, who was actually Tom Brandi under a mask. Sytch helped lead The Patriot and Doink the Clown to victory over the Baghdad Bullies (Saddam "Hammy" Insane & TNT) in a tag match. Preceding the bout, the one-time "Best Buns" Slammy Award winner taunted the Baghdad Bullies by flaunting her sizable posterior in their direction. Her next NWS appearance took place in an unusual setting as the event was held at a beach in Wildwood, New Jersey. On that particular show, Sytch would lead The Patriot to victory once again as he defeated Tammy's hated nemesis, Saddam Insane. Later in the show, Sytch managed The Patriot once again, not to mention Romeo Roselli, in a tag team match with Saddam Insane and Corvis Fear. Sytch was the deciding factor in the match as she pushed Corvis Fear off the top turnbuckle and Roselli pinned him for the victory.

In spite of the prior ruling, Sytch will be returning to NWA Shockwave (formerly NWA Cyberspace) in 2007 as a featured headliner. On December 1, 2006, Sytch was appointed the new commissioner of NWA Shockwave. [2] The promotion had temporarily stopped promoting shows due to the unexpected death of NWA Shockwave owner Billy Firehawk in July 2006.

In late 2005 and early 2006, WWE made several subliminal messages regarding Sytch's WWF tenure as Sunny. The company website featured "Sunny Month" on WWE 24/7 Online, a Flash puzzle baring her likeness, not to mention the usage of her old WWE theme music "I Know You Want Me" on the WWE Divas section of the site. This all seemed highly unusual considering that WWE rarely promotes talent unaffiliated with the company.

As it turned out, the individual in charge of WWE.com, Chris Chambers, contacted Sytch in November 2005 in hopes of having her participate in a photoshoot and interview in time for "Sunny Month" on WWE 24/7 Online in January 2006. Chambers was a good friend of Sytch during her WWF tenure - he helped produce some of her promos. The outspoken Sytch has never been one to shy away from an interview, but there was a dilemma regarding the possibility of a photoshoot. Juxtaposed to her earlier stint as Sunny, WWE fans who are unaware of her whereabouts in recent years would be in for quite a surprise if they saw Sytch in her present-day physical appearance - which has considerably altered since she was last seen in WWE in 1998. Albeit shapely, Sytch is no longer in "bikini-shape" due to the weight she's gained over the years. Henceforth, a flattered Sytch turned down Chambers' offer as she didn't want to leave a bad impression with WWE fans if they saw her in current full-figured state. However, Sytch didn't completely rule out the offer as she stated that would be willing to go through with the photoshoot and interview if and when she was able to lose her excess weight - or as she likes to refer to losing weight as getting back into "Sunny Shape." Although, WWE revoked Chambers' duties as Head of WWE.com in March 2006 and the occasional references on the site regarding Sunny lessened. Nonetheless, Sytch stated that she has spoken to Vince McMahon and that he has opened the door for Sytch to come back whenever she's ready to return, which is when she believes to be in "Sunny Shape." [3] Sytch hopes to makes a return to WWE in late 2006 or early 2007.

Sytch was also featured in the 2006 WWE DVD The World's Greatest Wrestling Managers. The DVD paid tribute to Sunny blazing the trail for future WWE Divas, but also seemed to put the blame on Sytch for her personal problems and drug abuse. Many clips of her past were shown, however, it is unclear if she actually participated in the DVD. Sytch, in her present-day appearance, didn't physically appear in the DVD, but she partially narrated her segment. Archived Sunny audio clips were likely used for her DVD segment as her voice has considerably lowered in the past few years.

After leaving the national wrestling spotlight, Tammy Sytch would gain an overwhelming amount of weight in subsequent years due to numerous health issues. When questioned about her weight gain through the years, Sytch believes that it can be traced back to when she was hospitalized after her pancreas gave out in January 2001 - due in part to her excessive drinking in previous years. Doctors said that she only had 48 hours to live; she was even given her last rites on two occasions. While Sytch was in a state of emergency, her boyfriend Chris Candido was on a wrestling tour in Japan. As soon as he received word regarding Sytch's condition, Candido immediately left the tour and flew back to the U.S. Also, many of Sytch's friends came to visit her in the hospital because they believed she was going to pass away. Doctors sedated her and she woke up a week and a half later. To their disbelief, Sytch's pancreas had unexpectedly shrunk back to normal one night. Sytch was subsequently released from the hospital a few days later.

Not long after, things would turn sour for Sytch once again due to her pancreatitis condition as it distorted the insulin control in her body. To make matters worse, Sytch's thyroid shut down not long after her hospitalization. Also, Sytch admitted that she was on the "gas" while in ECW in order to achieve a "ripped" body look (she claimed to have 4% body fat during this time period), which didn't help matters either. As a result, Sytch started to gain some weight - which was especially evident towards the end of her tenure with Wrestling Vixxxens as she became shapelier with each passing month. After the former friends had a falling out, Missy Hyatt would frequently poke fun at Sytch's weight gain in online interviews. To compound things even further, Sytch eventually stopped exercising for the most part - which only accelerated the process. Although, there were reasons for this. In her January 2004 retirement message, Sytch stated that she had torn her right quadriceps muscle on December 5, 2002 at an independent wrestling show in Texas, thus making her unable to train properly throughout 2003. She was also in a state of limbo throughout the year as she had moved to the unfamiliar grounds of Puerto Rico during the spring, only to return to the U.S. later in the year by living in a friend's house for a short while because they had nowhere else to go. During her state of limbo, exercising was one of the last things on her mind. With all these factors combined, Sytch's weight would greatly escalate over the course of 2003 and 2004 - to the point that it significantly altered her once "cover girl" looks in a relatively short amount of time. Sytch's full-figured state was at its pinnacle over the course of 2004 as she was at her absolute heaviest during this particular year. Sytch started suffering from depression due to the weight gain, not to mention her passion for wrestling in light of some fans' disparaging comments on the internet regarding her increased figure. Sytch's weight gain was often a source of ridicule from the IWC on internet forums. In a 2004 interview, Candido cited that no matter how well she performed, people would only pay attention to the amount of weight she had gained. [4] When questioned about her weight gain, Sytch wouldn't deny that she had indeed gained some weight, but she'd adamantly insist that her weight gain over the past few years was due to health issues beyond her control and not due to laziness and/or changed eating habits. However, Sytch eventually admitted that she simply "let herself go" for about a year in an August 2005 interview. Although, she didn't seem to mind her new found portlier physique because she wanted to finally enjoy the foods that were forbidden to her when she was working for the major wrestling promotions. Sytch said that she basically had to limit herself to grilled chicken and broccoli during her WWF tenure. Sytch also claimed that it was much too difficult for her to maintain her slim figure because she "wasn't meant to be so skinny" - though she'd attribute that notion to being 90% Russian and 10% Polish. Though she had gained quite a bit of weight, Sytch also added that at least she wasn't obese, she just wanted to enjoy life a bit more.

Come 2005, both Candido and Sytch made whole-hearted efforts to clean themselves up. Candido started focusing on putting on great wrestling matches again, and little by little, indy promoters started to take notice. Meanwhile, Sytch took on the daunting task of losing her excess carriage in hopes of regaining her old "Sunny" figure back. Sytch's efforts would bear fruit as she lost over 50 pounds in early 2005. However, Sytch's rapid weight loss was of the unrecommended crash variety as opposed to the more suitable slow variety, and thus her method of weight loss was likely to end up being temporary. Shortly thereafter, Candido's unexpected death instantly took a toll on both Sytch's physical and mental well-being over the ensuing weeks. A little over a week after his death, Sytch was briefly hospitalized for a minor nervous breakdown, but was soon released. Also, Sytch claimed that she went days on end without showering and that she had little urge to get out of bed, much less leave her home or talk to anyone. Sytch's family forced her go to a psychiatrist because they believed that she was depressed, though Sytch didn't believe she was. The psychiatrist told her to take anti-depressants to help cure her depression. Sytch initially refused to take them because she believed that the medication would cause her to regain the weight she had previously lost, thus making her even more upset than she already was at the time. A reluctant Sytch ended up taking the anti-depressants. Consequently, the medication caused her to gradually regain the majority of the weight she had lost earlier in the year over the course of the next few months. Sytch eventually stopped going to that psychiatrist. Despite the gain in weight, Sytch would continue to 'behave like Sunny" by dressing in a provocative manner for her wrestling appearances as she'd often don tight, revealing dresses, not to mention short miniskirts in which her undergarments were usually visible. During one appearance, Sytch donned a black gown with a plunging neckline - she would flash her breasts later in the evening to a Chris Candido Scholarship Fund donor as a token of her gratitude. Alongside the report of Sytch being thrown out of the event, The Wrestling Observer would report that her subsequent weight gain was especially evident during her August 2005 appearance at the WrestleReunion II convention as she had regained a considerable amount of weight in her upper body, buttocks and stomach by this point. Furthermore, the voluptuous Diva squeezed herself into a daringly short, tight-fitting pink miniskirt that appeared to be a few sizes too small on her increased waistline and prodigious posterior. A few weeks later, Sytch would engage in a catfight in which her short miniskirt would inadvertently fly up to indiscreetly bare a lace pink thong wedged into her considerably sized buttocks - the first time in several years in which the one-time "Best Buns" Slammy Award winner had been publicly seen in a thong. Moments later, an embarrassed Sytch would hastily pull her skirt down when she realized that it had stuck up following the skirmish as her large thong-clad buttocks was largely visible to a portion of the crowd. Sytch's exuberant tendencies would come to a head a few months later during an indy show in which a raucous Philadelphia crowd would show their displeasure towards her by ironically directing some "Put some pants on" chants towards the one-time "Best Buns" Slammy Award winner. Sytch happened to be refereeing in an ill-fitting miniskirt (as opposed to shorts or pants) in which the back hemline was just above her panties, thus making her underwear easily visible - even when she was standing. Furthermore, Sytch's panties appeared to be a few sizes too small due to her recent weight gain as a portion of her well-endowed buttocks was partially visible as well. Sytch's skirt constantly flew up as she motioned around the ring, thus giving the people in the first few rows quite an eyeful of her large backside to their dismay. In light of the embarrassing incident, Sytch would often don pants, not to mention slimming black clothing for her next few wrestling appearances while she attempted to lose weight during the subsequent months.

In November 2005, World Wrestling Entertainment contacted Sytch in regards to doing an interview and photoshoot for the company's website, but she turned down the offer as she didn't want to leave a bad impression with WWE fans if they were to see her in her full-figured state. Sytch has since vowed to return to WWE as soon as she is able to get herself back into "Sunny Shape." During this time period, Sytch would land a deskjob at a fitness club, thus making it much more convenient for her to exercise. Regarding the status of her current weight at the time, Sytch stated in a March 2006 interview that she was "on the right track" in regards to losing her excess weight and that she had recently lost 15 pounds. A few weeks later, Sytch would suffer a brief setback in the form of a broken rib as a result of Rhino's finishing maneuver, the Gore, though it didn't halt her training as the injury was minor. Albeit not in "Sunny Shape" quite yet, firsthand accounts of Sytch's most recent wrestling appearances state that she has indeed lost a bit of weight in contrast to the last few years. In a throwback to her "Sunny Days," a recent beach area wrestling show was the perfect setting for Sytch to parade her slimmer figure around as she was seen sporting a tight-fitting tanktop and miniskirt to the event. A few weeks earlier, Sytch donned a snug brown dress which showcased the buxom's diva's curvaceous physique.

Tammy Sytch was arrested on February 2, 1998 for violating a restraining order that her mother had placed on her. Sytch would have a second run-in with the law in December 2005 as it was reported in a weekly police log on a New Jersey-based news website that she was arrested for driving under the influence. Also note, the police report referred to her as Tamara Lynn Sytch.

Sytch was reportedly passed out after the October 23, 1999 ECW show. Sometime after 1:00 A.M. that evening, she was seen passed out in a chair in the locker room. Witnesses say that Sytch vomited, urinated on herself, and threw up all over her makeup kit. [6]

Sytch had a run-in with Low-Ki backstage at a USA Pro show that took place on August 17, 2002. According to Sytch, Low Ki sat in a chair in which she had been previously sitting in (to apply makeup) and he refused to give it back to her. Low Ki was going over his match with Devon Storm and was not pleased to hear Sytch backtalk to him. In a stern tone, Low Ki lashed back to Sytch by saying, "You will show respect to Low Ki!" As a result, Sytch became even more frustrated and tried to attack him. However, nearby wrestlers held the both of them back from going after each other. Sytch stated that Low Ki never personally apologized to her, but she added that Ki later asked Candido to evaluate one of his matches. She believes that that was his way of squashing the heat that simmered between both parties.

On August 27, 2005, Sytch appeared at WrestleReunion II - which featured a reunion of wrestling legends, not to mention a fan convention in which fans could meet their idols. Sytch wasn't booked by WrestleReunion management, but rather, she was brought in as a guest for the NWA Cyberspace merchandise table - the wrestling promotion she was primarily affiliated with at the time. Sytch was acting unusual at the event and it was believed that she was either intoxicated or high. She interrupted a Q & A session featuring Team 3D to say hello to them as she hadn't seen them since her tenure in ECW, although they seemed somewhat leery of her. Also, Sytch saw Bret Hart for the first time in several years. She spoke with Hart for a few minutes, but there were no problems or issues as it was simply a friendly hello. She also tried to talk to Matt Hardy at his stationed table while he was occupied signing autographs. Later on, Sytch was seen crying very hard at the convention, and at some points she was crying uncontrollably for undisclosed reasons. Eventually, police officers came to the table Sytch was stationed at and escorted her off the premises because it was believed that she was being a nuisance.

On October 22, 2005, Sytch was noticeably intoxicated during her in-ring appearance at the Jersey All-Pro Wrestling 8th Anniversary show. Sytch was booked as a guest referee for a women's tag match between Talia & April Hunter and Krissy Vaine & Alicia. Sytch was given the mic before the match to talk about Chris Candido, but her speech was slurred. Also, Sytch messed up counts and seemed lost in the ring. Though she didn't outright call her by name, April Hunter blasted Sytch in a blog on her MySpace page for ruining her match a few days later. Hunter believed that it was the worst match she had participated in in two years. [7] Sytch would later apologize to Hunter, citing emotional stress. Sytch also claimed that she had no recollection of the match.

On February 18, 2006, Sytch was heavily intoxicated during a JAPW match between Mercedes Martinez and Talia (seconded by April Hunter). For starters, Sytch patted down both competitors prior to the match in a seductive manner. Sytch would continue to behave erratically by periodically falling around the ring and attempting to talk to April Hunter while the match was going on. Furthermore, Sytch blew numerous counts and would repeatedly slap Talia in the back in an attempt to breakup corner moves. At one point, Sytch placed a headlock on Talia and dragged her to the corner of the ring before smothering her with excess girth. In perhaps the most unusual moment of the match, Talia had rolled up Martinez in a Schoolboy pinning position, but Sytch hesitated to make the count for a few seconds before ultimately making a "standing count" in which she slammed the illusionary mat in the air. In spite of her erratic behavior, Sytch was able to correctly make the three count to conclude the match after Martinez put Talia away with a Fisherman brainbuster. Preceding the bout, Sytch got on the mic in an attempt to talk to the crowd. However, the raucous Philadelphia crowd would have none of it and started yelling obscenities towards Sytch. Moments later, the one-time "Best Buns" Slammy Award winner was jeered with some "Put Some Pants On" chants because she happened to be wearing an ill-fitting miniskirt in which her amply sized buttocks was constantly being exposed to the audience. Sytch's panties were easily visible because the skirt she wore on this occasion was much too short on her. Also, this particular pair of panties appeared to be a few sizes too small as it greatly emphasized her buttocks and thighs. In Vito-like fashion, Sytch's skirt constantly rose up as she motioned around the ring, thus giving the people in the first few rows quite an eyeful of her backside to their dismay. And thus the "Put Some Pants On" chants started. Sytch left the ring after Rhino gored the women's wrestlers to a thunderous applause. Once the ring had cleared, Sytch entered the ring again and attempted to use the mic for a second time. However, the sound from the mic was cut off instantly. Subsequently, Sytch decided to sit in the middle of the ring, oblivious to the chants from the crowd. A referee and another individual were finally able to convince her to leave the ring. Sytch hasn't appeared on a JAPW show since the infamous incident.

Tammy Sytch and Chris Candido were never legally married. Since she was never legally Chris' wife, Chris' parents took care of the funeral arrangements at the time of his death. Candido's parents wanted Chris to be cremated, however, Tammy didn't want that to occur. Chris's mother wanted to divide up his ashes, and that made Tammy very upset. She hasn't talked to Candido's parents since the funeral. However, she does keep in contact with Chris' brother Johnny Candido and his sister.

Sytch currently holds a desk job at a fitness club.
