Jim Cornette on Tammy Sytch 

Shawn definitely made the right choice by not marrying Sunny. What she did to Chris Candido was sick and is an example why you need to watch what woman you want to pursue.

It’s an absolute disgrace that this woman is in the hall of fame and Chyna still isn’t

Update: she has been sentenced today for… 10.6 years in prison for driving with a suspended license causing death… Another seven years for DUI Manslaughter to be served following that… Then another eight years of probation. Banned for driving for life. Her sentence will end when she’s 75.

If you don't get it by the time you turn 40, you're never going to get it -Dutch Mantell

You can hear straight away how much Jim's hurt and disappointed. Tammy is a prime example of if you selfishly and recklessly hurt yourself so much you will sooner or later start hurting others too. Tammy's been hurting others like this for a long while, and now she's taken it to it's maximum point.

I just want someone to explain to me how someone with at least 7 DUIs in the last 7 years plus a handful of other charges has essentially walked away with slaps on the wrist every single time. Their inability to properly punish a serial offender led to the death of an innocent man.

Imagine the crap she's gotten away with that only she and her accomplices and victims know about. Tammy's been rotten for over 20 years now.

Sunny is a living episode of Dark Side of the Ring

Not even Diamond Dallas Page could fix the wheels on that wagon.

17 years with 8 years supervised freedom. Not enough for a train wreck.

This is sad. Cornette sounded like a father who watched his kid grow up into a menace to society. He almost went into tears 😭😭

I see a lot of “Sunny needs DDP” comments. Unlike Jake Roberts, Scott Hall, and the other people DDP was able to successfully help , Tammy doesn’t want to be helped. Can’t save someone who doesn’t want to be saved.

I KNOW YOU WANT MEEEEEEE: POLICE: We have issued a warrant.

Cornet says “jacked up , meat head boyfriend”!!! 😂. That’s all sunny looks for!! 🙄

At what point should the state be held responsible for allowing someone to get 7 dui's without serving any jail time

You can tell this hurts Jim seeing her go down this path. You can tell he respects her for the way she respected the business back in the day. Sad that it had to come to someone losing their life over her poor choices.

Every judge that allowed her to walk should be held partly responsible for that man's death.

Welcome to your own episode of Dark Side of the Ring Tammy

Her BAC came back and was 3.5 times over the legal limit. A .28 is insane, most people wouldn’t be able to start their car.

In Sunnys book she refers to Shawn as “the one man she ever truly loved but could never have.” That tells you right there what she thought of Chris. I know he loved her but she most definitely didn’t love him, she may claim she did but actions speak louder than words. If he had broken it off with her at some point in his life, he would probably still be here today and might’ve had a better career.

The degrees to which once-hot women will fuck up are fascinating.

I agree with everything that Jim has said here. There are only so times that you can defend a person's behaviour before you've had enough. There are no more excuses. She only has herself to blame!!!

75 year old man minding his own business, killed by someone who should have been stopped A LONG TIME AGO.

she claiming she had a seizure...doesnt matter . you had no license to drive.

Rip to the gentlemen who was killed

How many of us out here had to turn our backs on a friend or family member because they would not help themselves or take our help! At some point, we all have to admit defeat and move on!

If she has 7 DUI convictions, think about how many times she was not caught... ..

Really good podcast. Makes you think and wonder about narcissist people and why they just never wake up or care!!?

Shawn Michaels really dodged a bullet not marrying Tammy. Now he has a lovely family, found God and completely changed his old ways and a great job in WWE working on NXT. Unlike Tammy, he grew up.

This definitely qualifies her for an episode of Dark Side of the Ring. Along with Sherri Martel, Chris Adams and, Marty Janetty.

Throwing a hot dog down a hallway.. she must have had on the executive knee pads for the judges

Ali was right many years ago. "Bet on Sonny, lose your money."

This is the most honest I've heard Jim since the death of Eaton. I hoped he'd be like that for this topic. Thank you Corny!

Sunny turned out to be worse than Sable. MUCH, *much* worse.

You get 2 DUIs... you're permanently barred from holding a license.

I have always had mixed feelings about Tammy. She was a great performer in SMW and WWF in the 90’s. She actually loved the wrestling business and I did enjoy her as a fan in those two companies but then when it comes to all the stuff between her and Chris that makes me not want to feel sorry for her back in the day. Look even Shawn Michaels has come out and said he was an asshole in the mid 90s. I think everyone will agree on that including him. I am a fan of his but I don’t want to be one of those wrestling fans that says my favorite wrestlers don’t do anything wrong and it’s only the wrestlers I dislike, because there’s way too much of that going on. But I always had a very big problem with fans and people in the wrestling business blaming Shawn for Tammy cheating on Chris. I don’t think Chris’s friends like Bam Bam Bigelow and Shane Douglas did him any favors because they were so obsessed with making the guys in the Kliq look bad they never once stopped and thought that he you’re kind of exposing your best friend or someone that you claim to be a best friend as a complete fool to the entire world. Don’t blame Shawn Michaels. This is where I stopped feeling bad for her because Chris seemed like a nice enough guy and he was a great worker but he should’ve left Tammy in 1996 and never looked back. He spent his entire adult life depressed because his old lady was fucking everybody. And the same people that gets so bent out of shape and want to point the finger at HBK never once blamed Tammy and never once pointed the finger at Brian Pillman, Raven, Hak, Davey Boy Smith, etc. there’s nothing wrong if she wants to sleep around but she should’ve broken up with Chris. Well let bygones be bygones none of us are perfect she was young Chris passes away but over all of her problems that she’s had since Chris passed away as an adult she never took any responsibility for her actions. And I hate saying this because I really was a fan of hers I’ve battled my own addiction problems and I’ve never looked to my current employer as it’s something they’re supposed to fix. As an adult you treat addiction like you do cancer if you know you have a problem, and clearly even Stevie Wonder could see this girl had a problem, it’s up to her to get the help. Constantly blaming the WWF for not fixing her doesn’t really cut it with me. I know she did an interview about a decade ago and she was trying to compare herself to other people That the WWE had helped but their problems were much deeper than just alcohol but since then they’ve improved their wellness program and they have gone public and said it is for anybody who has ever worked there. Once that option became available to her is when she finally stopped blaming WWE for not helping her. Which doesn’t really look good either if you’re going to sit here and say they’re not doing anything for you and then when there’s an open door you don’t wave that flag anymore that really kind of looks like she never wanted help to start with. Even at that I still never really like tell people dog piled on her and made fun of her because I’ve known some damaged women in my life and stuff like that isn’t going to help but at some point like Jim says it’s up to her. Before half of this happened she should’ve realized OK something very bad is going to happen and there’s a very good chance she might lose her freedom for a long time now. Very sad situation.

My sister was killed by a f*cked up driver at the age of 21, she was in her senior year in college. The driver got probation despite a lengthy record. My opinion is that if you take someone’s license away and they get caught driving, they go to jail for 6-12 months. If they do it a second time there should be a mandatory minimum lengthy prison sentence. Because they have shown no regard for the law or others safety. I don’t know how these people get away with so much.

Her B.A.C. was .280, so I’m pretty sure she’s gonna be going to prison for at least 15-20 years.

Remember when Ziggler hunted her down so he can become Eskimo brothers with HBK?

Hopefully this is a wake up call for Jimmy Uso.

This sounds like a Cornette version of a eulogy about someone who was a trainwreck for the most part of their life...

A person with 7 joints in their pocket back in the 90s is still in prison today. A woman with 7 DUIs that just killed someone is on the streets. Just think about that for a minute.

Tammy may be the biggest 'what if's in wrestling. She was supremely talented and her legacy should be as the greatest valet ever. Instead she will probably be institutionalized for the rest of her life.

The fact that she took a blood alcohol test and wasn't arrested on site speaks lawsuits against the Florida pd.

Her "I Know You Want Me" theme music takes on a whole different meaning now.

Tammy's had plenty of chances to turn it around.

She has 17 years now to think about her behaviour.

She should have been Locked up way before this.

RIP to that man 🙏🏾

Funny Jim gave Sable a lot of flack from back in the day, but somehow Sunny became the fuckup out of the two hottest women in the 90's. 🤷‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️😂

Jim has been very fair to her over the years and his kindness in terms of not piling on and realizing that Tammy has a boatload of problems, it was seen and appreciated. but he's also absolutely right that all of this is way too far, and it's been too far for awhile. I think we all knew how this story was going to play out. Sadly. It's either she's going to end up dead or, which we got, someone else did. She's been hellbent on self destruction and it sucks when we know someone like that. And it's a very human thing to not want to give up on someone like that and keep hoping they will turn it around, as so many do.

In her prime I would put her up there with Miss Elizabeth as best valets in history. She could move, she could talk, obviously had the looks. The ultimate fall in wrestling as far as people who are still living

The judges that let her walk off more than 1 DUI should all be held accountable.

she coulda married shawn michaels but she wanted to stay with Chris lmao. woops

Please people anyone on here saying they feel sorry for her. GIVE ME A BREAK..The only reason somebody would say this is because she is some type of celebrity. Feel sorry for the family of the man she killed. Not for that sorry waste of à human. 7 DUIs been in and out of rehab that WWE paid for....She deserves every second she spends in jail. Should be the rest of her life

Sable is the winner of this one-sided feud, because I guarantee she hasn't spared a thought about Tammy in 25 years while Tammy couldn't get over Sable's popularity. She needs to be put away for a very long time. Zero sympathy for her. All sympathy for the victims of her selfish, sociopathic behavior.

She posted this to Twitter the day it happened... "Well assholes since my name has been towards the top of the kill list for the past 20 years, and I’m still fucking alive, shit, my autograph is worth more now so once I do croak you can sell it for a lot more money?! Come see me out at a signing" She also at one time tried to murder a fellow inmate with a pair of scissors. Nice girl...

Honestly, it's sad hearing Jim. He sounds like a father who gave up.

That’s the type of person who’s been dead for years but just don’t know it … read that again … it’s sad she had the looks and charisma to be a Hollywood star and pissed it all away if she had the right people around her she could have used the wwe fame from the 90’s and lived off that the rest of her life just sad all around

been waiting on this RU-vid clip for a few days now

Chris and Tammy=Forrest and Jenny Gump, Jenny never loved Forrest, and Tammy didn't love Chris....

Perhaps Shawn was giving a warning to Bret Hart when he mentioned the "Sunny Days" line

The last thing someone like her needs is a friend from her past throwing in a "Yeah, but..."

Meanwhile Sable has been in a healthy happy relationship on the farm with Brock Lesnar 15+ years

7 DUIs? At what point is the legal system negligent?

"Egg Yellows" 😁🤣😅

Why is it so hard to call human garbage a human garbage? Whatever good times he may have had been long gone. She's a monster, just like Missy Hyatt who ratted out the doctor who gave her drugs and he killed himself cause his life was over when feds came in. Entertainers don't have more excuses than a regular non famous person.

Sorry, the time for straightening out was over about 10 years ago and 15 charges ago. A decade plus long offender that now killed someone ... You're done. Prison bars for the rest of your life.

Her onlyfans from prison is going to be wild

Tammy's life was heading down a bad trajectory for some time now. It's sad that it's come to this, but I hope it wakes her up and slaps some sense into her. Unfortunately, it took a person dying for it to come to that point.

Also a perfect example of two legal systems. There is no reason why she shouldn't get multiple years in prison.

In the time since this video came out I’ve personally came to grips with a drug and alcohol addiction, worked the 12 steps of AA, sponsored men, and started working at a rehab alongside a man who’s treated the likes of ric flair, Shannon Moore, and Jeff Jarrett. It’s wild to have this perspective on the other side of things, because I know now more than ever that it is possible to recover, it is possible to be better than you ever thought you could be. Tammy unfortunately has had to hit a very very low bottom, and with not much life left to live as a free woman, I can only hope she latches on to the solution and helps women just like herself once there’s a chance for her to do so. One day at a time, y’all

With that many DUI's and arrests, she should absolutely get the full sentence of 20+ years.

Jim brought her into the business and the business brought out the toxic side and addiction side of Tammy. The worst thing that happened to her was getting into the wrestling business. Had she stayed out and went down the medical school route, she'd likely be better off today and at least a few people would be alive.

In Skycycle Blues, B. Dolan's 2007 eulogy to Evel Knievel, he wrote that "You can live an entire lifetime in the stardusted, flashbulb infinity of a launch into impossible space that climbs to the top of its arc and beats the sky back another inch. Only to crumble and collapse. Only to fall and return to the earth, and pay the cost of dreaming." Tammy has been paying that cost for a long time now.

I guess Sunny has eclipsed Sheet Stain status….?!?

I’m amazed she’s still alive. I remember an independent show she was on back in ‘04 where she was a guest referee and was clearly intoxicated and I think exposed herself in some way and the whole building was chanting “put some pants on”. It was embarrassing and her problems were on display for everybody to see but you still hoped she’d turn it around.

How the f%#$ you not in prison with 17 arrests with 7 duis holy shit

Typical when it comes to a drunk driver. The drunk survives while the innocent victim/s dies. Hope she never gets out of jail because you just KNOW if she does, she'll get back behind the wheel again & drunk no less only to kill another victim. Like the song by Guns N Roses "Civil War" Axl Rose hit the nail on the head when saying, "Some people you just can't reach." And Tammy is one of em. Just saying.

You could tell it was hard for Jim to talk about but, he pulled no punches and said this is all on her which it is

Her entire life screams being enabled and being around nothing but enablers and now it's come to worse case scenario.

She wont do life. Even if she was passed out drunk and high on every drug known to man. Shes a woman and she is somewhat a celebrity. She'll get a few years but she'll get out. She'll plead out to lesser charge. She'll get a little jail time and probation. I was wrecked by a drunk driver. It almost killed me. I broke my neck my back and had to have pins and plates put in my arm for the rest of my life. They got about 6 months in jail after it was all said and done.

She’s blown every cop, detective, prosecutors, and judges in Florida. That’s why they kept letting her have all the numerous DUI’s……!

In the dictionary under succubus there's a pic of Tammy Lynn Sytch

When are they going to stop giving her another chance and actually put her away for a long time? She's clearly never going to learn. Edit (Dec '23): well, 17 years is something, at least.

Surprised he didn’t blame Trump for her.

Never thought we'd see the day Jim Cornette wrote off Tammy, but here it is.

Jims right. Its been sad for years. But now.. damn near 50 years old. 17 arrests in the last 10 years. Driving drunk after 7 DUIs in those 10 years. And you fucking kill someone. Obviously jail isnt helping, rehab has never worked for her. Shes gotta be qualified for 5150 at this point. She needs psychiatric help. Shes been living like its ecw for like 25 years. That life has been right on her heels the whole time. Seems like the other foot just dropped.

You can tell how saddened Jim is about this. He truly cared about her and she obviously cared about and saw him as a father figure, mentor and the person who gave her everything good she had. People like Tammy have a lot of pain trapped inside them and it's really difficult to address it. She probably always felt very lonely as well (she kinda was) so that increases the feeling of being helpless. In the same time, there is just no excuse for not even trying to help yourself and for going so far down the line to eventually kill someone. She was immensely talented, but you know, meeting up with the wrong people and WWF at that time being a very toxic environment, didn't help her situation at all. It sucks badly, but maybe this will help her heal.

Dark side of the ring should do episodes on Sunny, Chyna and Chris Candido. Their rise and fall.

And before this, she grabbed a knife or scissors against her bf.

Hardcore narcissist that was constantly enabled and validated.

Fame and money doesnt help your issues. it amplifies them.

The only other time you hear Cornette this broken up about something is when talking about a colleague's passing. It's breaking to hear.

She had a great body especially around 1995 but boy did that change by 2005 just ten years later. She could of been a real super model or something after wrestling and done well for herself instead she fucked up her life. What a wasted life.

Tammy still believe she is the Tammy of the mid 90's

Really, Jim... "egg yellows?" C'mon man, they're called yolks. It's not that obscure of a term.

What's worse is that the Sunny simps wil defend her and say it's no big deal the man was 75 so it's not like she killed someone who had their whole life ahead of them

Jim is the cold hard truth

The way she treated Chris & past boyfriends (Stalking, Cheating, Abusive etc..) really tells you the Story of the kind of person she is!! Shawn made the right move and dodged a bullet with this girl... Shes had lots of charges/Jail time that I pray she doesn't becoming another statistic and pass away from drug use like so many other HOF legends!! I 🙏🙏🙏 she gets the help she needs and wants it and turns her life around for the better..
