Matching 30 WWE superstars with 30 Marvel and DC superheroes
By Mark Lynch
12. Chyna
Ronda Rousey is called the baddest woman on the planet, but she wouldn’t be able to do anything against the “Ninth Wonder of the World,” Chyna. Chyna was one of the first women in wrestling that could dominate both men and women. Sure, greats like Ms. Jackie did their damage on the guys, but not like Chyna.
Chris Jericho, Jeff Jarrett, and Eddie Guerrero all found out the hard way that Chyna is not to be messed with. She’s also on a shortlist of women who’ve held a men’s title. She’ll always be remembered as an inspiration to young women around the world.
Wonder Woman
Wonder Woman set the bar for women in comic books. It’s not just her superpowers that made her such an incredible character. It’s her attitude. Wonder Woman isn’t the kind of character that backs down from a challenge. She relishes a challenge. This is what Chyna did for the WWF.
Chyna wasn’t just strong enough to compete with the guys. Strength alone isn’t going to cut it. Chyna was crafty and skilled as well. Before she was a wrestler, she was Shawn Michaels and Triple H’s back up. She was constantly saving their butts and they knew it. Just like Wonder Woman has to do for the Justice League.
