ARREST WARRANT ISSUED FOR FORMER TNA, WWE DEVELOPMENTAL STAR

A bench warrant calling for the arrest of former WWE developmental and Impact Wrestling star Trenesha Daniyall Biggers aka Rhaka Khan was issued on 12/14 in Texas, PWInsider.com has learned.  The warrant was issued after Biggers failed to appear for a trial earlier this month to face charges of interference with child custody and "aggravated kidnapping facilitate."

Biggers had been indicted on those charges back in August 2019, leading to her being listed as one of El Paso’s most wanted fugitives after failing to appear in court. There are two court instances where her no-shows led to her bail being revoked. She was finally arraigned in December 2019.   Biggers is being represented by a public defender.  At a point, a bench warrant for her arrest was issued for missing a hearing but rescinded after she posted a $6,000 bond.

In the State of Texas, interference with child custody is when someone "takes or retains a child when that person knows that the taking or detention of the child violates a judgment or order."  It is considered a state jail felony and can be punishable by up to two years in prison.   

Biggers last wrestled in 2011 for the now-defunct Lucha Libre USA promotion, which aired on MTV.  Biggers was part of the 2005 WWE Diva Search and was signed to a developmental contract after failing to make it past the top 25 contestants in the search.  She was sent to Deep South Wrestling but was released in May 2006.  She worked for a number of independent promotions and in Japan before signing with Impact Wrestling in 2008, departing that promotion in 2009.  She worked for Lucha Libre USA in 2010 and 2011.

Biggers had been posting videos to YouTube in relation to her case, claiming her indictment was "fake" but later made the videos private.

The trial had been pushed back numerous time due to the slowdown in the court system brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.  Biggers' attorney had requested to be removed from the case in August with a new attorney later taking up her defense.

PWInsider.com has also learned that Biggers filed a lawsuit back in October in The U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, claiming a conspiracy against her in relation to the Texas case, listing, among others, as defendants: The State of Texas, The El Paso Child Protective Services, the FBI, Las Cruces Police Department, The NYPD, The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, New York ACS, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc., Shirley Police Department, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Suffolk County NY, WWE personalities The Miz and Maryse, current Impact Wrestling star Heath Miller, WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella, the late Chris Benoit, the now-defunct Panda Energy (which once owned TNA/Impact), Home Depot, Con Edison, the now-defunct Florida Championship Wrestling, Steve Keirn, The National Wrestling Alliance, NWA President Billy Corgan, the now-defunct Deep South Wrestling, Bank of America and countless others.  The lawsuit alleges that the defendants all "conspired to kidnap plaintiff and her children."  None of the defendants listed have been served as of this writing.  Biggers listed a home address of New York City for the lawsuit, which was filed on 10/8.  There has been no movement on the suit since 10/28.
