    Damn shame we never saw a much deserved return to Monday Night Raw for Chyna. Imagine her pop if she had made a surprise appearance. We deserved it as fans and she deserved it for herself. She always wanted to return, she made it known.

    In a way I kinda figured Chyna wasn't long for this earth. However, she deserved to be on that hall of fame stage spilling her heart out & being appreciated like the legend she is. Triple H is a ? for that comment on the podcast. Like there isn't murderers, racists & even a porn star in that hall of fame (? , even Snoop was involved with a porno & he just got inducted). She had her problems & died way to young like most other wrestlers from my youth. RIP.

    I see Steph and Triple H on their politician ? . They're only acknowledging her death because it makes them look compassionate and they don't wanna deal with the uproar from fans if they didn't.

    She deserves HOF. But if she gets it, it'll only be because it's good press for WWE and they can profit off her name one last time from DVD/merchandise sales.

    Savage still probably wouldn't be in the HOF if it wasn't for the fact he's dead.

    If she's get inducted into HOF, who is doing the induction?

    It would have to be Hunter and Shawn

    Man what is going on in the world first Chyna now Prince. Idk how to feel about the passing of Chyna because I'm sad & angry at the same time. The direction her life went in after her run in WWF was an absolute mess then, the way she got booted out of WWE was ? up and HHH/Steph/Vince all have blame to go around. Frankly, HHH & Steph were called out on their BS PC statements on Chyna's death through twitter last night.

    I hate how WWE just takes wrestlers and use them up in their primes and throw them away once they can't draw money out of them anymore. WWE has a ? way of "running ship" these guys/women work 250-300 days of the year for yrs they get hurt then end up getting addicted to pain meds that lead to other addictions. If they don't ecome addicted they end up being ? to some degree (Harley Race/Dynamite Kid). Look at the injuries on the current roster.

    I know it's in good taste for publicity, but I still like that they don't hold that grudge in death. They always respond in the right way...

    Chyna wasn't the greatest female wrestler, but she made the most impact and did it in a short period of time. If she didn't get pushed out and let her life fall apart, she may have been the greatest.

    Chyna and Matt Hardy had the same thing happen to them. Both fell apart too, luckily for Matt he managed to patch things up but Chyna went from bad situation to bad situation over years and years she was bound to OD or something.

    While on tour with WWE in Europe, Triple H spoke with The Mirror in The UK and had the following to say about the passing of Joanie “Chyna” Laurer:

    “It is obviously tragic and clearly my well-wishes go out to her friends and family. Brilliance sometimes, and that ability to push barriers and boundaries and be a pioneer, is often connected closely with other things that aren’t so positive sometimes, and demons, and unfortunately that is the case.

    Man, [she was] just a great person, an amazing talent, a ground breaking pioneer, that was never afraid to go out on a limb and blaze her own trail through life. She never took, and when you’re choosing a path [you can say] ‘hey here is a path let’s go down that one’ or you can blaze your own path and burn it up and create something for others to follow, and that’s what she did, and that star shone bright, but unfortunately burned out way too fast.

    You know it’s not my decision, but I definitely think, as I have said before, that what she did in her life certainly warrants it. There was never anybody like her before her, and there will never be anybody like her after. It’s certainly warranted and I’m sure at some point when the time is right, hopefully, that could happen.”

    She was doing damage to her own legacy.

    Steph is suspect as ? but I do believe that part of Trips is genuinely numb right now. This woman was the love of his life for quite a long time and he genuinely gushed every time he spoke about her when they were on the best terms.

    HHH can't win. If he doesn't speak about it, he "doesn't care." If he does, "he does not mean it." Sad for all parties involved

    Haitch really was in love with Chyna....he just made a move that was best for business. (pun intended)

    Never really thought he had any ill will towards her...

    Stephanie on the other hand....
