X-Pac Meets Doppelganger of Late WWE Legend Chyna in Manchester

Summary

– Chyna’s legacy, controversially distanced by WWE, was honored with a DX group induction into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2019.

Sean Waltman, better known to wrestle fans as X-Pac recently experienced a poignant reminder of his past affiliations with D-Generation X and, more notably, with the late Joanie Laurer, aka Chyna. Waltman’s encounter with a Chyna lookalike at an event in Manchester reignited discussions about the duo’s complex history and Chyna’s indelible mark on professional wrestling.

Waltman was a vibrant component of the D-Generation X faction during his tenure in WWE. This ensemble included notable wrestlers like the New Age Outlaws, Road Dogg, and Billy Gunn and was led by Triple H following Shawn Michaels’ departure due to injury. Chyna, known as the “Ninth Wonder of the World,” was Triple H’s on-screen partner and developed a significant personal and professional relationship with Waltman, extending into ventures outside the wrestling world.

The recent encounter in Manchester, as shared by Waltman on social media, underscores the enduring fascination with Chyna’s persona and the complex web of relationships within D-Generation X. It serves as a vivid reminder of the late wrestler’s impact, both as a trailblazer in the women’s division and as a key figure in one of WWE’s most notorious factions.

Despite WWE’s controversial distancing from Chyna post-WWE, her contributions were eventually acknowledged when she was posthumously inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2019 as part of D-Generation X. This move was seen by many as a long-overdue recognition. However, calls for her induction persist, highlighting the complex legacy she leaves behind.

Waltman’s moment of reflection, spurred by meeting Chyna’s counterpart, not only celebrates the memory of a wrestling icon but also reignites conversations about her rightful place in WWE history and the lasting impact of D-Generation X on the industry.
