RIP Chyna

It doesn't matter what she was before and after the WWF. Frankly, I don't give a shit.




She put women's wrestling on the map, and was a great influence to so many worldwide. She was my childhood idol, man.

I'm gutted :( She didn't get half the respect she was owed, and I have a horrible feeling the WWE are going to just sweep her loss under the rug. Chyna was fucking MONUMENTAL in showing that a woman wrestler can have as powerful and captivating a presence as their male talent--even more so! She didn't even have to TALK and she was taken seriously, she had such a look. Most guys struggle on the mic, and there was Chyna, with just a swagger and a look.

I'll always love when they teamed her and Eddie Guerrero. :( Making her character wary of his interest, only to have him be sincere in his admiration for her, was one of the coolest storyline choices they could've gone with.

I really hope they remember her in SOME way. WWE women's wrestling owes a lot to what she stood for.

The original diva. She'll be missed.
