I mean, I don't mean to sound horrible, but I'm pretty drat sure Chyna's going in when she passes away. I don't think they trust her to "represent the company" otherwise. That's terrible, but I think it's true.

With how many chances they've given Sunny over the years, I'm sure that if Chyna came to the WWE and said "I'm having serious problems, I am looking for help," they would in fact help her. But the crazy thing about schizophrenia, or whatever it is that Chyna obviously has, is that you are incapable of realizing that you are the one with the problem. Even if the WWE did approach her about it (and who's to say they haven't already?) the chances that she would accept any kind of help are slim to none. It's a sad situation but the guy who said she'll probably go into the HoF when she dies is right.

This is true, I mean he compared them to each other in that they were human, but that doesn't really count for what we're discussing. The comedy in Russo's tweet is that he can't see why they wouldn't give the support and love they showed to an innocent child who was tragically cut down before his time by one of the fuckedest things ever, to someone who is a complete liability to herself and everyone around her and recently made what were possibly accusations of pedophilia at HHH.

Maybe a few years ago. Now? No loving way. Not after she said that thing about "little boys" to Trips.

Yet I still see posts on a daily basis of people asking why chyna cant go in. It wasnt the porn im quite sure he mentioned the porn as a way to not completely throw her business out into the open.

Chyna's not going in the HoF, she's ranted for years about how Vince and Hunter are trying to kill her and insinuated a ton of other things. They'll give her a nice little mention at the start of RAW or something and maybe she'll be acknowledged in some documentary alongside her problems but you're not gonna have someone come out and give a speech about her. What she was worth to the WWE or wrestling in general is no where near what she's worth to them as a liability.

The comedy is Russo asking for human compassion for someone who needs it from a capable source.

I feel bad for them because they're all good workers and I like them each individually, and every time Xavier is allowed to talk (only on the app) he makes sure to very clearly state "You have NO idea how hard it was for us to get this on TV".

I'm just assuming they all bargained with Vince to do at least five years each of racist angles as long as he put them in a few tag matches. And then it's all met with indifference or X-Pac heat.
