Tammy Lynn Sytch / Sunny, part 3

After being released from WCW, the Tammy and Chris landed in Xtreme Pro Wrestling where she managed Candido to the XPW World Heavyweight Wrestling Title. Candido and Sytch parted ways with XPW and started touring other indy wrestling promotions. Meanwhile, Sytch formed a business relationship with Missy Hyatt, and the two created the website Wrestling Vixxxens in July 2001. Along with a few other women loosely affiliated with wrestling at the time, they posed for the website and charged people to view the pictures. 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. 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.

After the death 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 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, but 911's knee buckled and they both toppled to the canvas. Sytch proceeded to laugh off the incident.

Tammy Lynn Sytch / Sunny, part 2

Once she was released from the WWF, Tammy officially made the announcement at Heat Wave '98 that she was now a full-time ECW employee. Now billed as Tammy Lynn Sytch, she aided Chris Candido in his win over Lance Storm. As their feud moved forward, Storm introduced his own valet "Tammy Lynn Bytch". The quartet had several mixed tag team matches against each other. Candido being a member of the Triple Threat stable (where Shane Douglas was being managed by Francine) eventually led to a Francine/Sytch feud that 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 and reformation. Candido and Sytch left the promotion in December 1999.

In between a brief stop for Xtreme Pro Wrestling in early 2000, Tammy and Candido signed on with WCW. Candido debuted in March of that year, joining the New Blood, and Sytch debuted one month later. She debuted in WCW at Spring Stampede in 2000; she distracted The Artist Formerly Known as Prince Iaukea, while dressed in a chicken suit, during a six-way bout for the vacant WCW Cruiserweight Championship, enabling Candido to win. She then feuded with Iaukea's valet Paisley, with the two having several catfights. The short-lived feud came to a conclusion at Slamboree when The Artist and Paisley stripped Tammy's dress off to reveal her undergarments following Candido's singles victory over Iaukea. Sytch and Candido then dubbed themselves "the first couple of wrestling" and briefly feuded with Crowbar and Daffney. Candido dropped the belt when Daffney pinned Sytch in a Mixed Tag Team match with the person scoring the fall winning the title. Candido and Tammy were then released from WCW.

Francine Fournier - ECW-WWE

Francine Fournier was born on February 19th, 1972 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
She is better known as Francine, a former American professional wrestling valet, known for her work for the wrestling promotion, Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW).
Francine worked for a life insurance company before deciding to become a professional wrestling valet.

She was hired by ECW in December 1993, and trained with J.T. Smith at the ECW House of Hardcore training school, of which she was the first graduate. In the summer of 1995 she debuted in ECW as a devoted fan of Stevie Richards, and she later became his onscreen girlfriend and manager. On August 26 Richards turned on her, interfering in a catfight between Francine and Beulah McGillicutty. Richards' interference allowed Beulah to pin Francine for the victory, and Francine lost her wrestler to Beulah and Raven. She gained a measure of revenge by leading The Pitbulls to a victory over Richards and Raven for the ECW Tag Team Championships on September 16th, 1995.

On July 13, 1996 at Heatwave, Francine turned on The Pitbulls and became the manager of Shane Douglas, who she twice helped become ECW World Heavyweight Champion. During this time, she could also occasionally be found at ringside in support of Douglas' Triple Threat teammates Chris Candido and Bam Bam Bigelow. She remained at the side of Douglas until he left ECW to return to World Championship Wrestling, at which point she became the manager of Tommy Dreamer, whom she had been dating off screen for at least a year previous; Francine did not publicly reveal her relationship with Dreamer until after she began working with him. In 2000 she left Dreamer (as part of the then-current storyline; their offstage relationship continued unabated) and managed Raven, then Justin Credible until ECW declared bankruptcy in March 2001.

WWF: Stacy "The Kat " Carter - Part 1

Stacy Carter (born September 29th, 1971 in Memphis, Tennessee), better known as Miss Kitty or The Kat, is an American former pro wrestler and valet. She is best known as the ex-wife of wrestler Jerry "The King" Lawler. And yes she once held the WWE Women's Wrestling Championship.

Stacy Carter first appeared on WWF RAW in August 1999 as Miss Kitty, an assistant to Debra, appointed to her by Jeff Jarrett as a reward for coming back to work for him after a feud with D'Lo Brown. Within the next few months, Jarrett rejected Debra after a tag-team loss against Stephanie McMahon and Test, 'promoting' Miss Kitty to be his new manager.

Subsequently, Jarrett became involved in a feud against all of the women in the WWF by attacking them and wrestling 'miss-matches' against them while Intercontinental Champion. Jarrett would use Miss Kitty to gain an advantage, and in some cases, leave her to get beaten by his opponents. One such occasion was a mixed tag-team match that pitted Jarrett and Carter against Mae Young and The Fabulous Moolah. Jarrett refused to tag in, allowing Miss Kitty to be defeated by the far more experienced wrestlers.

The partnership ended when Jarrett left the company after losing the title to Chyna at No Mercy 1999. Because she won the match, Chyna also won the services of Miss Kitty. Carter then became a 'Chynette', dressing in 'Chyna-like' clothing and dying her hair black. It was also at this point that she changed her name simply to The Kat.

At Armageddon 1999 in December 1999, Miss Kitty won her only WWE Women's Wrestling Championship in a Four Corners Evening Gown Pool match by defeating champion Ivory, Jacqueline, and Barbara "BB" Bush. The Special Guest Referees were The Fabulous Moolah and Mae Young. After the match, Miss Kitty stripped out of her dress in celebration and flashed the crowd her breasts, before being covered up. This was The Kat's most infamous moment. This highlighted the "T and A" era of women's wrestling and showed what the division had become - more known for gimmicks and curves than actual wrestling ability. The Kat was cheered simply because she'd shown her breasts and because she might do it again.

Carter later lost the title on the January 31st edition of RAW to Harvey "Hervina" Wippleman in a 'Lumberjill Snowbunny Match'. Around the same time, the partnership between herself and Chyna was 'ended' with no explanation.

The Kat appeared at the Royal Rumble 2000 in the 'Miss Royal Rumble Swimsuit Contest'. She appeared in a bikini made out of bubble wrap. However, the contest was 'won' by Mae Young.

The Kat then entered into a lengthy feud with Terri Runnels. At WrestleMania 2000, Terri (accompanied by The Fabulous Moolah) defeated The Kat (with Mae Young) in a Catfight. Val Venis was the Special Guest Referee, but was distracted when Mae kissed him in response to Val making out with both Terri and The Kat. This allowed Moolah to pull The Kat out of the ring, and when Val saw her out of the ring, he declared Terri the winner. Post-match, The Kat attacked Terri by stripping her black pants off to expose her thong.

On the April 10th edition of RAW, The Kat was tricked by Terri into visiting a beauty salon to 'bury the hatchet'. Instead, Terri drugged her and gave her a bad cut and dyed her hair. As a result, The Kat changed her hair color and style on a regular basis, which would become part of her new gimmick. The feud would continue to an Arm Wrestling Match at Insurrextion 2000. The feud was cut short to allow Terri, now aligned with Perry Saturn, to feud with Chyna and Eddie Guerrero. The feud resurfaced in a 'Thong Stink Face' match at SummerSlam 2000 as part of Saturn's feud with Al Snow over the WWE European Championship. The Kat won the match by delivering a stinkface to Terri.
