SLAM! Wrestling has a lengthy article on former WWE women’s wrestler Luna Vachon. Vachon reveals that she’s bi-polar and medically diagnosed as being manic depressive. They wrote: “Her condition was not known to everyone she worked with in the wrestling industry, but those close to her knew full well that when she said her catchphrase, “Lunacy has its privileges,” she wasn’t just trying to entertain — she was being honest.” Vachon talks about her wrestling career, Owen Hart, Chris Benoit, which current WWE Diva’s career she’s monitoring, her recent retirement, being told not harm Sable in their wrestling feud (or get fired), and more. Vachon also reveals that she has posed for some adult magazines in the past. “I was in Playboy because I was a weirdo and Hustler because I was a nutcase,” Vachon revealed. As far as what she’s doing these days, she’s currently a tow-truck operator.

I saw an article just this morning on the “Cauliflower Alley” web site (an organization that a lot of the long time members of the wrestling community belong to) stating that Luna had recently lost eveything she owned in a fire at her residence. I wonder if this was just too much for her?

She had a great look/persona for profession wrestling... unfortunatley certain promoters *cough*mcmahon*cough* prefer the “diva” look.
