WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka has been charged with 3rd Degree Murder in relation to the death of his ex girlfriend, Nancy Argentino, which happened in 1983.
Investigators claim Snuka directly caused her death following an attack at a motel in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
The autopsy report showed that Argentino suffered contusions and cuts over her body which are consistent with domestic violence and a traumatic brain injury consistent with blunt force trauma to the head.
Bail has been set at $100,000 and Snuka's arrest follows a high profile campaign to get the case reopened by Argentino's family.
WWE issued the following statement:
“WWE expresses its continued sympathy to the Argentino family for their loss. Ultimately this legal matter will be decided by our judicial system.”
