.Dark side of the ring truly nailed it on the head again as always.
Its one of my favourite sports entertainment documentaries as they truly get the all narrative no matter how controversial.
But my favourite episode was the Daffney one.
She was a wrestler who captivated me when she was in TNA she nailed the gothic glam chick and then I found out she nailed the rocker fan girlfriend look in WCW. Daffney was so versatile and she was the originator of the scream which i think definitely could have influence the other beautiful woman wrestler Melina.
A scream which would deafen cats ears.
I found it ironic a woman who had so much to live for and was loved by so many chose to take her life in a online suicide.
A video which when it was online most people were begging her not to do it but the pleas fell on deaf ears.
That’s the thing about depression and living with bipolar at times the sufferers are in their own world and their thoughts are the door that block kind words coming in.
I think personally a person living with bipolar shouldn’t be in a physical contact sport as definitely blows to the head worsen bipolar.
I truly believe the pandemic didn’t help her feelings of isolation and her weight gain and going through early menopause it truly was a catalyst for her fateful decision.
But why this episode moves me when you think of someone killing themselves that act is all associated with them not their previous life and dark side highlighted Daffney that she was a woman who had a lot of accolades under her belt.
She was a actress ,got to be live her dream being a champion and wrestle and was pivotal in changing how wrestlers get treated by companies if they are injured while wrestling and was a friend a daughter a sister.
She had so much to more to give to the world and already made a impact others cant compare and changed the game in relation to conventional female wrestler she set her own rules.
I urge anyone if your suffering isolation or any mental health seek help don’t ever feel suicide is the answer you always leave devastation behind for your loved ones.
When there’s life there’s hope.
Daffney you were the original scream queen ,but to me I truly believe you were a queen who never knew you had a throne.
