Francine Fournier announces her retirement from pro wrestling

[Enigma]

From Francine's MySpace:

 

Hey all. I am typing this with a heavy heart right now. I have made the decision to "retire" from the wrestling business. It has been a sometimes great, sometimes not-so-great 13 years, but I think it is now time to move on with my life. I have not accepted any bookings after December. Now, there is a chance, (be it a small chance) that I might work on a show in the future, but I will not be doing this for a living anymore. If I do decide to work, it will only be a select numbers of shows, mainly just to catch up with good friends. But that might not even happen. I want to have a family and a normal homelife. One without the stress and hassle of what is known as the wrestling business. Believe me, I will miss performing for all of you. This was my life for over a decade, as it's going to be hard to stay away. But I feel it is time to move on and pass the torch to the "newer divas' lol.

 

We are going to be putting up more ebay auctions in the next week or so. Won't you help me get rid of this stuff lol? Here is the link if you want to check out some cool ring worn stuff. It will be your last chance to own a piece of me (so to speak)

There are too many people to thank individually, so I am going to just say "THANK YOU" to each person that I have worked with along the way. And a huge 'THANK YOU" to all of you for making me what I am today. I said it before and I'll say it again, without you guys and girls, there would be no me. I LOVE YOU ALL!!! Thank you for booing me when I was the trashy heel and cheering me when I was the sweet babyface. And thank you for not only caring about Francine the performer, but also caring about Francine the person. You will all remain in my heart forever! Take care and God Bless!

 

Francine xoxo

She could always join the rodeo.

Retired until TNA offers her a bunch of money.

She better have a real good plan for her future, because very few performers can really "quit" and move on from wrestling. Unless she can embark on a whole new career and be there for her family (is she married? kids?), there'll always be that itch to get back in the ring.

 

I say look for her to make her "big return" within the next year in some out of the way indy dive.

She was at a local strip club last year.

 

You had to pay to talk to her, and no one seemed interested.

I like how on her friends list she has Sunny who has a picture of herself from 10 years ago.

Yeah, because that's why people go to strip clubs, to talk.
