The only silver lining, that she won't realize, is that WWE and the [=McMahons=] NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead and are planning to induct her into the Hall of Fame posthumously as the least they can do to recognize her career's high times.

* TheChick: In Degeneration X, being Hunter's bodyguard & eventual lover who stuck by him when he formed DX with HBK. An intimidating woman who acts as the group's enforcer. Being a woman of few words, her actions & facial expressions conveyed a more maternal side. During a triple threat match with Rock, Hunter, and X-Pac, a rift occurred between the latter two and the match ends in DQ with Rock losing but getting to keep his belt. Triple H and X-Pac are frustrated, meanwhile Chyna can only glare at them in silent reprimand.

* GagBoobs: Zig-zagged. According to her autobiography, when she got her first set of implants, she realized that since she's 5'10" with a very muscular frame, it would be somewhat logical for her to go with a larger size. However, they were still fairly underwhelming on her frame, so after one of them ruptured during a match, she went back under the knife to repair them. During this, she apparently became the model for a line of larger implants she called the "Chyna 2000s," which were specifically made for female bodybuilders and large-framed women. They looked fairly proportionate during her time in wrestling; however, since she left, she slimmed down somewhat and her implants started to look oversized.

* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: To say Joanie Laurer fell to pieces after she was released from the WWE would be a ''severe'' understatement. Disastrous public appearances, increased drug use, and a self-destructive relationship with Sean Waltman utterly ruined her and her reputation. While she got some of her life back together afterwards, for years she was still considered somewhat of a train wreck -- making news for accusing Triple H of hitting her at one point and then making threats to both him and Stephanie in a [=YouTube=] video. Not to mention her appearance at TNA, where it was made clear just what the excessive plastic surgery had done to her, and that she had downright embarrassing ring rust to compound it.

* ProgressivelyPrettier: [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/58/Chyna.jpg Chyna when she debuted in 1997]]. Compare that to [[http://z.about.com/d/prowrestling/1/0/j/9/-/-/chyna12.jpg Chyna after the plastic surgery]]. When she debuted alongside Triple H, lots of viewers were probably thinking, [[SamusIsAGirl "Who's that big, ugly man?"]] It should be noted that she's gone both ways with this, she started off somewhat mannish-looking, then refined her looks through plastic surgery, and becoming quite pretty, posing for ''Playboy'' and being considered very attractive. Unfortunately, she kept getting plastic surgery, and between that and losing a lot of her muscle tone (making her parts that were surgically enhanced for her muscular physique out of proportion), she's since approached what a few people have called a plastic train-wreck. And then there are some of the things that steroid abuse has done to her body that are somewhat... offputting.

* UnrequitedLoveLastsForever: May be the saddest case to the point of qualifying for the trope image. Though she was with Paul (HHH) for four years, things were uneven. While she seemed to love him, he's implied he settled for her during their time together until he grew up, started thinking about a real life, and eventually met Stephanie, as he notes on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B59KY90FLM8&t=8s Sway's podcast]]. The podcast included, he's routinely praised Stephanie as the best woman in the world. Chyna has had numerous shoots on him over the years, in addition to vids where she's clearly under the influence that show she never truly moved on or came to acceptable terms with what happened. [[{{Yandere}} At one point, she even made death threats to him and Stephanie]].
