It was with a heavy heart that the WWE announced yesterday that former superstar Chyna (Joanie Laurer) passed away at the age of 45 yesterday.

Daughter of WWE Owner Vince McMahon posted this tweet yesterday afternoon


Chyna  was nicknamed "The Ninth Wonder of the World" and became a founding member of the groundbreaking faction D-Generation X.

She also was the first woman to enter the Royal Rumble Match and the first and only woman to win the Intercontinental Championship.

Here is a video she posted on Sunday:
