A former model and professional wrestler who competed with Total Nonstop Action in the late aughts was arrested Saturday morning after she allegedly violated an eviction order at her Midtown apartment.
Trenesha Biggers, a 43-year-old TNA wrestler who competed under the stage name Rhaka Khan, was led out of her apartment in cuffs around 11:30 a.m. and charged with criminal trespass, TMZ reported.
Tenants in the building said Biggers was served an eviction notice, which she ignored. The former wrestler opted to remain at the apartment without permission until authorities arrived.
Biggers was booked in the NYPD’s 17th Precinct, the outlet reported.
Before signing with TNA in 2008, Biggers appeared on WWE Diva Search in 2005.
She was released from both pro-sport powerhouses after two years and concluded her lackluster career in 2011 following a short stint with Lucha Libre USA.
Since her rocky withdrawal from the sporting scene, Biggers has racked up a few oddball run-ins with the law.
In August 2019, she was placed on El Paso’s most-wanted list for allegedly interfering with her child’s custody, which she shared with her ex-husband, another former wrestler.
But her ex later came out and admitted to making false police reports and other bogus claims to Child Protective Services against Biggers.
Biggers isn’t the only former WWE talent to drift from the ring to the slammer.
In May, ex-wrestler Michael Droese, better known as Duke “The Dumpster” Droese during his ’90s limelight, was indicted on child pornography charges.
The former WWE star apparently tried to use cryptocurrency to purchase child porn on the dark web. The crypto company flagged the attempted purchase and the FBI was alerted.
Following his retirement from the WWE, Droese taught elementary school students with learning disabilities before pivoting to coaching athletics.
Last June, Charles Scaggs, another fallen star from the famed wrestling media company, was arrested in Missouri after he stabbed a man multiple times during a dispute over a cigarette at a gas station.
