This morning the
wrestling world was rocked with the announcement that former WWF/E star Chyna,
real name Joan Marie Laurer, had passed away. The time of her death is still undetermined
because she posted on Instagram on Sunday but nobody has heard from her since
until a friend got worried and went to her apartment last night and found her
already deceased, she was 45 years old.
In the late 1990s she made
her way in to the WWF during the Attitude age and was one of the early WWF/E
Divas. She is probably best known for her time with Degeneration X alongside
Triple H and Shawn Michaels. She made an appearance in TNA in 2011 but that was
short lived and she left wrestling for good.
After she left wrestling
her personal life has been in an upheaval and included drugs and adult videos
and it has been rumored that her death is due to an overdose.
For as big of a star as
Chyna was in wrestling in the late 90s and early 2000s she has almost no base cards
beyond some 1998 and 1999 Comic Images and 2001 Fleer. She does have two
official autographs, one in 1998 Comic Images and one in 2011 TNA Signature
Impact.
