He appeared on the “Bird Calls” podcast and talked about his experience in prison. She said she was taken to Lowell Correctional Institution and asked countless questions about her daily life behind bars.
Sytch was asked if anyone at the prison knew about his life and professional wrestling career. He said that before he moved out of the county jail, other inmates would ask him to sign personal items, from his jail ID to his underwear.
“A girl asked me for my prison ID, to sign it so she could take it home and sell it on eBay. And I said no,” he said. “And then another girl, believe it or not, had the nerve to ask me for my underwear, to sign it so she could take it home and sell it on eBay. I was like, absolutely not.”
Sytch also opened up about his sex life, or lack thereof.

“I love men, but when you're here you really have no choice. If you want any kind of affection or connection with someone, it's a girl-girl thing, you have no choice. But there's really no one who wants to do it.” “He's right up there for me, so I might have to wait a little while until someone of quality comes along.”
Sytch was asked what life was like without having sex.
“It's been 22 months without that and let me tell you, it's hard. It's like being a virgin again, it's crazy,” she added.
Sytch performed in WWE under the nickname Sunny. She became very popular and is known in professional wrestling as the first WWE Diva. However, since 2012, she has amassed an extensive record, including multiple DUI arrests in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
In March 2022, she was arrested on DUI charges for a crash that left a 75-year-old Florida man dead.

“I know my words are not enough. But you should know that I think about you every day,” he said. “Every second of every day, and I will do everything I can to make the changes I need to make sure this never happens again. No one should have to go through this, and know that every second of every day since the accident, I hope I could trade places with him.”
