Laurer redefined the women’s wrestling division for WWF during the mid to late 1990’s, and was the female ‘enforcer’ for the popular anti-establishment group known as ‘DX,’ led by WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels and Lauer’s one time real-life boyfriend Triple H (Paul Michael Levesque).
She had her share of issues once she was let go by the WWE in 2001, and even went so far as to making a sex tape released commercially in 2004 as “1 Night in China.” She also appeared in Playboy twice as well.
As of now there’s been no word on a cause of death for the former WWE star.
