Wrestling Star Arrested on Drug Charge (Miss Elizabeth dead; WCW's Lex Lugar in jail)

MARIETTA -- Cobb County police on Thursday arrested the former professional wrestler known as Lex Lugar after authorities found a controlled substance in his home while investigating the death of a woman who died after she was rushed early Thursday from his residence to the hospital.

Elizabeth Hulette, 42, known in the wrestling world as Miss Elizabeth, was taken from the Cobb town home owned by Lawrence Pfohl, who wrestled professionally as Lex Lugar.

Rescue workers were summoned around 5:30 a.m. to the home, which is located off of Powers Ferry Road, Cobb police spokesman Cpl. Brody Staud said.

He said the woman died at Kennestone Hospital shortly after she arrived, but authorities have not yet determined her cause of death.

"At this point, we don't know if it's a suicide, we don't know if it's a natural death (and) we don't know if it's a homicide," said Staud, who added later that there was no indication of foul play.

The woman was transported to Kennestone by ambulance. Authorities said Pfohl, 44, rode with her to the hospital. Neighbors said the woman was Pfohl's girlfriend.

Hulette had been married to the wrestler known as Marcho Man Randy Savage but the two are now divorced.

Pfohl owns the Main Event fitness club in Cobb County.

Several hours after Hulette was pronounced dead, Pfohl was taken into custody after investigators found the illegal substance in his home.

Authorities said police recently responded to a domestic disturbance call at his home two weeks ago, during which Pfohl was arrested for allegedly beating Hulette, according to a copy of the police report. He was out on a $2,500 bond in connection with that incident when he was re-arrested on the controlled substance charge. It was not immediately clear what the substance was.

"Hulette had been married to the wrestler known as Marcho Man Randy Savage"

I'm not a wrestling fan except when I visit my parents. My dad stays glued to the boob tube when wresting is on. Is this the same woman that Randy "Macho Man" Savage and Hulk Hogan fought over a number of years back? If so I thought she was blonde.

Pretty much a brunette although she lightened her hair in recent years as indicated by the above photo.

Heard on the radio that the drug was a steroid. Wow! Pro wrestlers take steroids. Who woulda thought it?

If he'd been using pot instead of steroids, Miss Elizabeth would be alive, well, and wondering where all the Cheetos went. But John Walters says pot is Public Enemy #1.
