RIP Chyna

So says Twitter.

Former WWE Star Chyna Dead at 45 | Daily Wrestling News

 

[Mr. Sunshine]

From the handful of things I'd read over the years, her life completely fell apart post-wrestling.

Her younger life also was pretty f'd up. She went on Howard Stern after she was in Playboy.

 

[DanOregon]

I watched her season of The Surreal Life with Peter Brady, and Mini Me. You're sitting there wanting to goof on D-listers and it was just incredibly sad.

There are fewer happy endings in pro wrestling than even in boxing.

Are there any pro wrestlers whose lives aren't a trainwreck in some way?

The Rock has turned out pretty well. But yeah, he's an exception.

Twitter dug up a legal article written by Mankind the other day. Evidently he does CLE. So he seems to have his **** together.

I have no idea what this post means.

Continuing legal education.

Continuing legal education.

Well, no wonder I didn't get the reference!

 

[Mr. Sunshine]

Does he go by Mankind in that capacity? Not Dude Love or Cactus Jack?

Mick Foley seems to be one of the more intelligent to ever perform in the ring. Which makes some of the crazy **** he's done in the ring even tougher to fathom.

Does he bring Socko along, just in case?

 

[Mr. Sunshine]

Foley's first couple books were well-written and very entertaining. The guys at the top of the profession usually turn out fine. The rest of the performers, especially the women, are prone to ****ty lives/early deaths.

 

[BDC99]

Also caught a few episodes of the Surreal life and she was a wreck. As was Sean Waltman (Xpac), her boyfriend at the time. He was arrested on some drug charge a while back and I found out he lived less than a half mile from me. Sad.

George "The Animal" Steele is one who immediately comes to mind as particularly well-adjusted. He had a great career as a high-school teacher and football coach. He even beat Crohn's Disease, and he's still alive and has to be in his 80s or pretty close to it at this point.

As for Chyna, RIP. As I said on the other thread, sadly, you could see this coming a mile away. Addiction sucks.

Jericho is pretty busy with his in-ring career, band, podcast and books.

Always amused me that the guy scripted back then to be the most crazy (eating turnbuckles, green tongue) was anything but.
