Many fans of professional wrestling recall seeing Dawn Marie during the mid-1990s at Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) events or in the early 2000s on WWE programs. Recently, she announced a new venture: joining OnlyFans. This platform allows her to connect with fans more personally. At 55, Dawn Marie, currently working as a nurse, clarified that her OnlyFans content will be fun and flirty but will not include nudes or extreme collaborations.
“It’s going to be fun. It’s going to be flirty,” she explained. “We’re not doing nudes, which I made very clear. Just going to be Dawn Marie.”
In an interview with Fox News Digital, she shared how wrestling injuries, particularly to her neck, have made her nursing career more challenging. Her move to OnlyFans is partly motivated by her desire to secure a better future for her children as a single mother.
“I have residual issues from being a nurse due to wrestling,” she explained. “I choose not to be what I see daily – people my age in beds and never getting back up. It’s scary. The only difference is it happened to them and not me.” She continued, expressing her wish to provide for her kids: “If I’m able to nurse and continue to nurse and figure it out and not need the extra dollars … Well, I guess my kids are going to have a great time after I’m gone.”
Dawn Marie is also making public appearances again, motivating her to maintain her health. She expressed her readiness to embrace new experiences like OnlyFans. “I’m not trying to be the Dawn Marie of 20 years ago,” she said. “I’m trying to be the Dawn Marie that’s 55 and embracing it. Women are beautiful at every age.”
She emphasized that her decision wasn’t driven by financial gain. “This is just preparing a little extra something for my future – just in case.”
Dawn Marie began her wrestling journey in 1995, debuting at an independent show in New Jersey. She managed Tony Atlas in a match against Jimmy Snuka. Her career included stints in ECW and WWE, before departing WWE in 2005. She returned to WWE ring action in 2024 at NXT Halloween Havoc as a special guest referee.
Reflecting on her debut, she said, “The second I walked out that curtain and I had that moment. It was so profound. It was weird. It was like, scary at first, but then it felt so peaceful.”
