Hailing from White Bear Lake, Minnesota, Molly Holly is next up on our list of the greatest women wrestlers of all-time. Molly Holly, born Nora Kristina Greenwald, despite standing at only 5'4 was a suplex specialist. During her time as a pro-wrestler, there wasn't an opponent she didn't fear lifting off the ground and hurling over her shoulders. Holly was also quite the athlete performing moves like the Rolling Neck Snap, Sunset Flip Powerbomb, and Handspring Back Splash regularly in the ring. Also, her finishing move, the Molly Go Round takes an exquisite amount of precision to execute on a weekly basis.
As a youth, Molly Holly never thought that she would become a pro-wrestler with her aspirations set on becoming an American Gladiator. However, as a teen, she began powerlifting and eventually found herself working for the WCW as a trainer and eventually as a wrestling personality herself. From 1998-2005, Holly worked for both the WCW and the WWF where she captured the WWF Women's Championship (2x) and the WWF Hardcore Championship for an hour before losing it to Christian at WrestleMania X8. Since then, Molly Holly has popped in and out of the independent circuit and the WWE over the past decade.
Not all celebrities have fame and fortune, some are just famous – and in a ton of debt. They came from rags to riches, then went back to rags. Whether they’ve filed bankruptcy, ended up in court, or just can’t stop spending, celebrities mismanage their money just like everyone else. They just hide it well.
50 Cent coined the term “wanksta,” then “partied like it was his birthday” until he filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2015. The rapper was said to be anywhere between $10 million and $50 million in debt. In 2016, a federal bankruptcy court judge in Connecticut approved a plan for the founder of G-Unit to pay his debts back. He was able to get his bankruptcy discharged in February of the following year.
Following a 45-year-long career in Hollywood, acting in more than 70 films, actor Gary Busey found himself in more debt than he was worth. In 2012, it was reported that Busey owed between $500,000 and $1 million worth of debt, but only had $50,000 to his name. The 74-year-old actor owed money to hospitals, banks, the L.A. Waterworks District, and even a storage company. He filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy that same year. Despite his longstanding career in Hollywood, Busey's net worth is now only $500,000.
Burt Reynolds is still worth five million dollars, but his battles with debt date back more than 20 years. Between bad investments and a pricey divorce from actress Loni Anderson, the 1970s superstar had to deal with over $10 million in debt and decided to file Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1996. While testifying in a 1994 custody hearing, the South Florida native said he spent $40 million getting through his divorce.
The former Hollywood bad boy, Charlie Sheen owes the IRS nearly $5 million. But that's not all. In 2016, his net worth was reportedly still as high as $150 million, but he was nonetheless $12 million in debt at the time – including mortgages, legal fees, and taxes. That same year, Debt.com reported Sheen owed nearly $300,000 on an American Express card alone.
