Valerie French
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Valerie French was a professional wrestling valet better known as Sunshine.
Valerie French started in wrestling as the valet for her cousin Jimmy Garvin in World Class Championship Wrestling in 1983. She was called Sunshine and helped him in his feud with David Von Erich. On June 17, 1983, Garvin lost a match to David where he and French had to be his servants for a day. David had them doing chores on his ranch and filmed it for some hilarious television.
Shortly after this, Garvin brought in his wife, Precious, to replace Sunshine and they feuded. Sunshine enlisted the help of Chris Adams to help her in this feud.
In the summer of 1985, Sunshine had a brief feud against Jim Cornette that saw her pin him in a match where he had one arm tied behind his back and blindfolded. By late 1985, she was feuding with Missy Hyatt. They had many catfights that Hyatt's man John Tatum usually broke up so Sunshine enlisted Scott Casey and The Great Kabuki to help her.
Kabuki turned on her and Casey in December but she continued her feud with Hyatt. It culminated at the Parade of Champions on May 4, 1986 where Sunshine beat Hyatt in a mud match.
She then left for the Universal Wrestling Federation where she managed the Fabulous Freebirds. She then left the Freebirds and managed the Fantastics (Bobby Fulton & Tommy Rogers) and resumed her feud with Hyatt. She eventually left for some appearances on the independent scene before retiring.
She now lives in Tampa, Florida, is married and has a daughter.
