Ex-WWE Diva Tammy 'Sunny' Sytch Charged with DWI

WWE Hall of Famer Tammy “Sunny” Sytch was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving Saturday after allegedly driving the wrong way down a one-way road with a suspended license.

Sytch, 46, was stopped in Seaside Heights just after 6:30 p.m. local time by officers from the Seaside Heights Police Department and the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office, according to the Asbury Park Press.

Seaside cops reportedly charged the wrestling star with DWI, having an open container in a motor vehicle, consumption of alcohol in a motor vehicle, and reckless driving.

Officers from the sheriff’s office, meanwhile, reportedly charged Sytch with failure to stop at a stop sign, driving the wrong way on a one-way street, driving with a suspended driver’s license and careless driving.

The arrest comes just four months after she was released from an eight-month stint in prison.

NJ.com reports Sytch was also sitting on two outstanding warrants for her arrest from Holmdel and Knowlton, N.J., prompting the Seaside Heights Police Department to release her to the Holmdel Police Department.

Online records show she was booked into the Monmouth County Jail Saturday on charges of contempt, though the Asbury Park Press reports she has since been released after being seen by a judge via video conference.

Spokespersons from both the Seaside Police Department and the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office did not immediately return PEOPLE’s requests for comment.

The arrest marks the sixth time Sytch has been cuffed for DWI, according to TMZ.

She was busted three times in 2018 alone, while the other arrests stretch back to 2012.

Sytch was released from jail in October after spending eight months behind bars, according to TMZ. She was previously locked up in September 2016 for violating parole, and was released in February 2017.

Sytch, who went by Sunny during her wrestling career, rose to fame as what many consider to be the very first WWE “Diva.”

She was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2011, after leaving the company in the late ‘90s.
