Former WWE Superstar Marty Jannetty is currently trending on Twitter due to a Facebook post he made early this morning.

Jannetty is known for making bizarre Facebook posts but in his latest it appears he is admitting to murdering a man when he was a teenager.

Jannetty recalled how he worked at a local bowling alley when he was 13, and was buying marijuana from a gay man who also worked there. The former WWE Intercontinental & Tag Team Champion went on about how he allegedly made the man “disappear” after an attempted sexual assault behind the building, and then dumped his body in the Chattahoochee River.

“I never told no one this, even my brother Geno..cause Geno would’ve killed him, and I didn’t want my brother gone,,hell he’d only recently came home from Viet Nam,” Jannetty wrote. “I was 13, working at Victory Lanes bowling alley, buying weed from a f-g that worked there..and he put his hands on me..he dragged me around to the back of the building..you already know what he was gonna try to do..

“That was the very first time I made a man disappear..they never found him..they shoulda looked in the Chattahoochie River..but Winnie(the girl in these pics) I likes you so damn much, probably my favorite..but I promised myself way back then, nobody would ever hurt me again..that includes you..I loved you but you hurt me with your f–kin Jamaican jealousy..you can go your own way, I don’t need you..”

Winnie is apparently the woman that Jannetty has been in a relationship with. He told another fan in a comment that they had a falling out. Jannetty again commented on the alleged murder and said he has the satisfaction of knowing the man never hurt another kid.

“Me and Winnie just had a fall out,” Jannetty wrote back to the fan who asked if he was OK. “But, if you’re asking bout the other thing..yes, that was a billion years ago, plus, I have the satisfaction of knowing that b—h ass n*nja never got to do another kid like that..”

For what it’s worth, Jannetty was born in Columbus, Georgia and the Chattahoochee River runs through that area. Jannetty was born in February 1960, so he would have turned 13 in 1973. The Vietnam War officially ended in April 1975, but troops were returning at various times before that. There are also records of a Victory Lanes Family Bowling Center in Columbus at some point. The facility once sat on Fort Benning Road, which is right next to the Chattahoochee River.

Ever since The Rockers split up over 25 years ago, Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty have been on divergent paths. HBK became one of the most celebrated wrestlers in history while Jannetty has struggled to stay clean.

Jannetty recently spoke to Wrestling Inc. on their WINCLY podcast to discuss his physical ailments and how he’s holding up.

“I’m having a problem with my ankle and it’s a hard adjustment from being a world-class athlete to having to gimp and use a crutch,” said Jannetty.

“When I look at guys that are my age like Iron Sheik – man he’s in a wheelchair. Duke ‘The Dumpster’ Droese – from his knee down he’s got a titanium leg. I see that and it hurts my feelings because I don’t wanna see them like that. I can only think what fans must think when they see us like that.”

“Mine’s only a gimp, I can get it fixed. I don’t have health insurance so it’s gonna cost me a little bit. I could do it now, but then I’ll be broke. If I don’t make money after that, then where am I gonna eat?”

Jannetty realizes that the first step in turning his life around is having the right attitude. But that’s where his self-doubt creeps in which keeps him from getting things back on track.

“I’m trying but it’s so hard when you have self-doubt. My dad once told me that if you don’t have self-respect, it don’t matter what you got because you ain’t got nothing,” stated Jannetty. “It’s hard to respect yourself when you can’t walk right…Now I can’t even walk out to the trash can to put the trash out. I gotta let it smell up the house before I finally do. It’s a hard adjustment.”

Diamond Dallas Page has helped numerous wrestlers in similar positions to Jannetty, but the conversation between DDP and Jannetty apparently didn’t go smoothly.

“I love him to death,” Jannetty said of DDP. “I don’t wanna say nothing negative, but there was a couple of negative things… His response was not one I liked and I’ll just leave it at that.

“I wanna leave it alone because I don’t wanna say nothing negative.”

Two years ago Jannetty faced Joey Janela in his first ever Spring Break main event. Afterwards Janela and Chris Jericho then tried to help Jannetty by creating a GoFundMe page to help raise money for medical costs.

“I love Joey but he finished me off [laughs]. I love Joey. He offered to help me, him and Chris Jericho to do a GoFundMe…,” Jannetty said before mentioning that others like Scott Hall had previously received money from GoFundMe accounts to help them after drug issues.

“Scott Hall had just gotten a sh**load of money from the GoFundMe…. Here I come behind him and the first three or four comments were ‘Oh, all these drughead partiers blew their money and now they want us to pay.’ I was like ‘No. Take it down. I don’t want that up there.’ Because it does appear that way.”

Jannetty has a lot of pride and admits he needs to check his ego in order to reach out for help.

“And when you’ve been worldwide – it’s even harder…. I’m asking people for money that already paid me. When they showed up to the arena that night, they paid me. And now I’m asking for more? It’s just hard,” stated Jannetty.

“But it’s all on WWE. Because if you’re making a million off me last quarter, you can’t pay $40,000 to get my ankles fixed so I don’t need to OD on pain pills? That’s why I got in a lawsuit. The Rockers [going into the WWE] Hall of Fame will never happen because there’s a lawsuit in place. It can’t happen.

“I love all of them. I love Vince. I love Shane. I love Stephanie. I love them all…Linda, she was hardcore. But I love them all. Vince once told me, I think it was about Jesse Ventura when he was suing, ‘You have to separate business from personal life. What’s going on right now is business.’ That’s where I’m at and you’re the one who taught me it’s business.

“I don’t like it. But I don’t like walking in front of people with a gimp either.”
