Former WWE wrestler Sara Lee — a past winner of the org’s famous “Tough Enough” show — died by suicide in October … this according to a new autopsy report, obtained by TMZ Sports.
In the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office documents, officials say Lee ingested a lethal combination of alcohol and pills. They added that the former wrestler had left “letters of intent at the scene” before her death.
According to officials in the documents, Lee had bruises and abrasions on her head and body at the time of her passing — though they suspected she may have suffered the injuries in a fall or falls while in an intoxicated state.
She was just 30 years old.
