CHYNA; DON'T TREAT ME LIKE A MAN
(Don't treat me like a woman....don't treat me like a man.....don't treat me like you know me.....just treat me for who I am)
I feel so proud when I walk through the corridors with her by my side. She's my mamacita and no one else can touch her. She's amazing, you should see her work in the ring essa, she's like superwoman or some other sort of super hero I don't know. She's just amazing and she's mine.
The other guys, they can't see how wonderful she is. They laugh when they see me give her roses or laugh and joke with her. They don't know how it feels to have such an amazing mamacita beside you. They say that I'm lucky to have her because she can help me get victories. I tell them that I don't care, as long as she's by my side and she's smiling. The victories are nice you know essa and I sure am getting a lot more since she's been with me but that's not why she's with me. But that's something you morons wouldn't understand.

Eddie's a lot better than you think. I get girls all the time at signings whining at me for being with him, that he isn't right for me and that I'm wrong being with him. I thought he was a greasy little rat when I first met him myself but what can I say? I got bowled over by his Latino Heat. People think I'm lying when I say that, that I'm just using him like I used Chris Jericho but it's not true. Eddie treats me like real woman and respects my ring work. Jericho didn't do either so he had to go. Even Hunter only saw me as his meal ticket towards the end, the guy with a female bodyguard who can kick ass. At the beginning he loved me, at least I believed that. But I don't know anymore, I really don't.
Let me start at where I am. I'm sat in my hotel room getting ready for Eddie's prom. We spent ages deciding what the perfect outfits would be. Red is my colour when I'm with Eddie. Of course I still wear the black leather, how could I not? It's my trademark. But for the prom I want to stand out. I want to look perfect for Eddie so that when his friends see him, they're blown away by the woman on his arm. So it's a gorgeous dress, it's hung up beside me. I touch the fabric smiling. I know Eddie's going to love how I look in it. He won't be able to take his eyes off me and that's the idea.
Hunter stopped seeing me as a woman. I mean sure he knew the parts were there, my breasts do kind of give it away considering the outfits I wear and he was sleeping with me. That much made it obvious. In the beginning when he and Shawn found me in a hotel and helped get my contract, we fell in love. Sure I was bowled over by this handsome muscular guy who was a hell of a wrestler and he helped me get into the business I love. So for a while I had stars in my eyes. People wonder how we could have been in love when they see videos of what I looked like back then; a scary masculine bodyguard always with a scowl and ripped black clothing. But as DX and everything else progressed, I began to change. I adapted my work out technique until my body was sleek and sexy but retained my muscles. I was a new age woman and beautiful too. I was a superhero to millions of little girls world wide because I didn't take any crap from anyone.
DX was a blast. I was in the ring with Hunter and Shawn, I got to carry their belts and beat up the guys. Then X-Pac, Billy and Dog joined us and Shawn left because of his back injury. Actually Hunter threw him out because he wanted to be the leader and Shawn lost the WWF title. I was the first lady of DX or should that be bodyguard? What more could I want? Then Hunter and I split off on our own and I became a real in ring competitor and got to show my skills. My outfits changed too into black leather like bikini tops and shorts. But people still saw me as a bodyguard, Hunter's extra help at ringside and wasn't I lucky to be in his corner? I think towards the end he began believing it too. I wasn't sexy, I was as tough as the leather I wore and cheered because I was different. I saw the signs, for every 'Chyna is my hero' there was a 'Chyna is my dad' It hurt but no one understood. Hunter just laughed when I mentioned them backstage and told me that I wanted to be treated like a guy in the ring so I was asking for those comments. That hurt too but I never let him see that. He was starting to change too.
So I finally left them and what happened? I won the Intercontinental Title and Miss Kitty became The Kat and my valet and my best friend. She was such a sweetheart and a real help at ringside. She was me when I was with Hunter and I was glad of the company. Hunter and I broke up; it was a neutral thing since we'd worked so closely together we'd burnt each other out. He wasn't loving towards me anymore anyway, treating me like someone he'd employed not someone he loved. I was glad of the space, the freedom to do what I wanted to. Then Hunter told me they were going to bring DX back together and that he wanted me back in. I told him no way, I knew something was up and sure enough, as I fought Chris Jericho for the Intercontinental belt at Armageddon, he forged an alliance with Stephanie Mcmahon. More than that, he married her.
I begin to undress, shutting the door as I do. I haven't got long before Eddie comes to pick me up and we head off to the prom. Then we're heading to the arena for Backlash; Eddie's facing Essa Rios with his European title on the line. I'm there primarily to take care of that little bitch Lita. She keeps getting in the way of Eddie's victories.
I still can't believe Hunter married Stephanie. He's changed so much since I've known him. He's still got that fiercely aggressive streak in him that threatens to overpower any one in his path. And now he has Daddy's Little Girl by his side and in his bed. Daddy must be so proud.
So now I'm with Eddie. People ask me why. He's so different from any of the other guys I've been seen with. The difference? He treats me like a woman, not one of the guys. He loves me for who I am. Yeah I was sick of his come- ons at the beginning because he wouldn't leave me alone and I beat and pinned him at Wrestlemania a few weeks ago but things change. Just ask Hunter.
I'm still wearing the black at ringside but my femininity shines through more. My make-up is darker and more dramatic. My lipstick is bright blood red, the same colour as the roses Eddie gives me every time we walk down the ramp together, sometimes with an iron bar hidden among the thorns. He knows how to treat a woman, helping me up onto the apron every time and watching in admiration as I work in the ring. I haven't compromised my ring work by being by his side though I've seen the signs in the crowd; 'Why are you with Eddie?' 'Dump the loser Chyna'. I've had people tell me that the fans don't understand why I'd be with a man I claimed I hate. I tell them that things change and so have I.
I loved Hunter but then we fell out of love. I hated Jericho then we became kind of friends. I slopped Kitty when she was with Jarrett and I fought him for the Intercontinental belt but then she became my valet. I was disgusted by Eddie and now I want him. In this world things are fickle, peoples' feelings especially. But one thing is for sure, I am not going to stop wrestling and I am not going to stop going after what I want. One day it'll be the Heavweight belt. I'm going to be the first woman ever to hold it. Eddie says I should go for it. He understands. Hunter would have laughed and told me to keep on dreaming, that it wasn't possible in this business. What does he know? He's married to a Mcmahon, one who can't wrestle but has the women's belt. Well that's fair.
The dress looks perfect on me. Long and red with thick lacy straps, hugs my breasts, tucks into my hips and flows down to my feet. My hair is crimped and curly, tied back with pieces spiralling down. My lips match the dress and my eyes are perfectly lined. Eddie's going to faint when he sees me and then when we've wowed the prom, we'll be back at the arena so that Eddie can retain his title. I will support him in every way I can. People forget when they see me at his side that I still compete in the ring; I'm still going to enter King of the Ring this year. Its one of my ambitions to be the first Queen of the Ring. And I'm going to do it because I am all woman, no matter what muscles I have which I've worked so hard to get and no matter how many guys I have to beat down to get to the top. I am still a woman and you may call that a hindrance in our business but I call it a gift. I can go places that others can't. And when the audience see me tonight in my dress, they're not going to be able to not notice that I really am a woman.
I'm proud of that. Why wouldn't I be? I've achieved more than most men here and still retained, in my mind, who I am. That's why I'm with Eddie, he loves me for who I am not who I can beat up. That's what's important to me

Eddie beat Essa at Backlash but after the match, Lita managed to strip Chyna down to her bra and panties. That was when things began changing - Chyna was in Playboy, she went on the Diva shoots and then became the Women's Champion. In my opinion, she lost her edge. In real life, Joanie Laurer and Paul Levesque (Hunter) were together for a few years before he and Stephanie had an affair behind Joanie's back. Chyna left the WWE in 2001 when she apparently wanted a big pay rise and wouldn't back down as well as a reign as WWE champion before she left. She's currently engaged to Sean 'X-Pac' Waltman and competing in Japan. She was the first trail blazer in women's wrestling which allowed women today to compete with the guys. A true icon.
