00:00:23,891 --> 00:00:25,024
I can tell you that.
9
00:00:25,025 --> 00:00:26,826
Jerry Lawler: I think she's
bionic.
10
00:00:26,827 --> 00:00:28,628
Cole: Chyna broke down countless
barriers
11
00:00:28,629 --> 00:00:30,630
in Sports Entertainment.
12
00:00:30,631 --> 00:00:34,734
The first woman ever to enter
the Royal Rumble match.
13

00:00:38,405 --> 00:00:41,708
Jim: The first woman to wear
Intercontinental gold.
15
00:00:42,576 --> 00:00:43,677

another woman like me.

00:00:45,145 --> 00:00:47,581

very best

00:00:47,681 --> 00:00:49,850
of The Ninth Wonder

00:00:52,386 --> 00:00:53,420
[WWE's Greatest Moments' music]

00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,054
The Rock: If you smell--
20
00:00:55,055 --> 00:00:56,088
Cole: Oh, my God.
21
00:00:56,089 --> 00:00:57,991
What the hell are you doing?
22
00:00:58,692 --> 00:01:01,060
Jim: Absolutely unbelievable.
23
00:01:01,061 --> 00:01:02,663
Gorilla Monsoon: Hulkamania is
here.
24
00:01:09,069 --> 00:01:11,704
Cole: Welcome, everyone, to
WWE's Greatest Moments.
25
00:01:11,705 --> 00:01:14,073
I'm Michael Cole, and on this
edition, we're looking back at
26
00:01:14,074 --> 00:01:17,711
the groundbreaking career of the
revolutionary Chyna.
27
00:01:18,845 --> 00:01:20,313
Vince: And there she is.
28
00:01:20,314 --> 00:01:21,747
Jim: The awesome Chyna.
29
00:01:21,748 --> 00:01:22,582
Vince: Look at the shoulders.
30
00:01:22,683 --> 00:01:24,016
Look at the delts.
31
00:01:24,017 --> 00:01:26,552
Jim: She is no doubt the first
lady of Sports Entertainment.
32
00:01:26,553 --> 00:01:28,454
Cole: We all know in
professional wrestling lore,
33
00:01:28,455 --> 00:01:30,256
Andre the Giant is fittingly
34
00:01:30,257 --> 00:01:32,426
known as the Eighth Wonder
of the World.
35
00:01:33,093 --> 00:01:36,228
But in the late 1990s, a ninth
wonder appeared
36
00:01:36,229 --> 00:01:39,566
and quickly rose to
superstardom in WWE.
37
00:01:41,301 --> 00:01:42,301
Paul Heyman: There's a reason
why Chyna's called
38
00:01:42,302 --> 00:01:44,171
the Ninth Wonder of the World.
39
00:01:44,705 --> 00:01:46,539
Jim: And she has done so many
things first,
40
00:01:46,540 --> 00:01:48,342
as far as her gender
is concerned.
41
00:01:48,942 --> 00:01:52,546
Cole: With a unique look and a
wealth of Amazonian strength-
42
00:01:52,646 --> 00:01:53,981
Chyna: I have incredible
genetics,
43
00:01:54,081 --> 00:01:56,917
and I have the availability to
gain muscle mass very quickly.
44
00:01:57,584 --> 00:02:01,455
Cole: Chyna's meteoric rise in
WWE all started in 1997's
45
00:02:01,555 --> 00:02:06,727
In Your House Final Four with
one truly implausible debut.
46
00:02:09,262 --> 00:02:11,497
?
47
00:02:11,498 --> 00:02:12,732
Jim: The Intercontinental
Championship
48
00:02:12,733 --> 00:02:14,368
to be contested here.
49
00:02:14,835 --> 00:02:16,268
Two of the great young athletes
50
00:02:16,269 --> 00:02:17,270
are gonna strut
their stuff here.
51
00:02:19,006 --> 00:02:21,942
Peter Rosenberg: I got to say,
when you look back at it,
52
00:02:22,042 --> 00:02:24,544
the choice to bring in Chyna,
the-the way
53
00:02:24,644 --> 00:02:27,280
that she was brought in is
fascinating and brilliant.
54
00:02:28,348 --> 00:02:30,217
Jim: Wait a minute, there's
Goldust.
55
00:02:30,317 --> 00:02:31,584
Jerry: What?
56
00:02:31,585 --> 00:02:33,185
Jim: We know that Goldust and
Helmsley despise each other.
57
00:02:33,186 --> 00:02:34,521
Jerry: No.
58
00:02:35,255 --> 00:02:37,456
Jim: It looks to me like Goldust
has cost Helmsley
59
00:02:37,457 --> 00:02:38,624
the Intercontinental title.
60
00:02:38,625 --> 00:02:39,859
[bell rings]
61
00:02:39,860 --> 00:02:42,862
Marlena: I remember the first
night
62
00:02:42,863 --> 00:02:44,631
when she came out of the crowd.
63
00:02:45,332 --> 00:02:46,298
Jim: Wait a minute.
64
00:02:46,299 --> 00:02:47,033
Jerry: Look at this.
65
00:02:47,034 --> 00:02:47,700
Jim: Who in the hell is that?
66
00:02:47,701 --> 00:02:48,301
Who is that?
67
00:02:48,402 --> 00:02:49,603
Jerry: What in the world?
68
00:02:49,903 --> 00:02:53,539
Marlena: When she interacted
with my character, Marlena,
69
00:02:53,540 --> 00:02:58,978
it was just ve-- two very, very
different entities.
70
00:02:58,979 --> 00:03:00,714
It was unbelievable.
71
00:03:01,581 --> 00:03:02,916
Jim: Security taking that lady
away.
72
00:03:03,984 --> 00:03:07,320
Paul Levesque: Chyna, there was
never anything like her.
73
00:03:07,654 --> 00:03:08,722
Jim: That lady got a little
overzealous,
74
00:03:09,790 --> 00:03:10,823
to say the least.
75
00:03:10,824 --> 00:03:13,260
Paul: Almost all of the women in
the business prior
76
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,495
to were seen as like the
just as eye candy.
77
00:03:16,496 --> 00:03:19,266
She changed that mold for all of
them.
78
00:03:19,666 --> 00:03:21,268
Goldust: You're going to jail.
79
00:03:22,069 --> 00:03:26,305
Marlena: From the first second
you see her on camera,
80
00:03:26,306 --> 00:03:28,075
she arrived.
81
00:03:31,111 --> 00:03:34,780
Cole: Heading into SummerSlam
1999, WWE Champion,
82
00:03:34,781 --> 00:03:38,218
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin, was
left without an opponent.
83
00:03:38,318 --> 00:03:39,619
Stone Cold: That's the biggest
punch of BS
84
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,254
I ever heard in my life.
85
00:03:41,755 --> 00:03:44,223
Cole: A triple threat match was
set for Monday Night Raw
86
00:03:44,224 --> 00:03:46,459
to determine the number one
contender.
87
00:03:46,460 --> 00:03:48,894
Shawn Michaels: It's gonna be
Triple H, it's gonna be
88
00:03:48,895 --> 00:03:55,502
The Undertaker, and the third
and final opponent is Chyna.
89
00:03:55,602 --> 00:03:57,470
[crowd cheers]
90
00:03:57,471 --> 00:03:59,506
Cole: For the first time ever,
a woman would have the
91
00:03:59,606 --> 00:04:02,542
opportunity to become next in
line for the richest prize
92
00:04:02,642 --> 00:04:04,577
in Sports Entertainment.
93
00:04:04,578 --> 00:04:05,911
Chyna: You want a piece of me?
94
00:04:05,912 --> 00:04:07,781
Come on and get you some.
95
00:04:10,183 --> 00:04:12,651
Jim: The first person to earn a
pinfall or submission,
96
00:04:12,652 --> 00:04:14,153
they'll be the number
one contender.
97
00:04:14,154 --> 00:04:18,023
Shawn: She was beautiful and so
secure, such a strength,
98
00:04:18,024 --> 00:04:20,727
and she embodied all of that
when she went out there.
99
00:04:21,094 --> 00:04:23,462
Jim: The Undertaker with the
right hand and down went Chyna.
100
00:04:23,463 --> 00:04:26,665
Paul: If she could face the
guys, it's a bit of a novelty.
101
00:04:26,666 --> 00:04:28,101
She was not.
102
00:04:28,535 --> 00:04:29,503
Jerry: Oh.
103
00:04:29,603 --> 00:04:31,704
Jim: Chyna just nailed Triple H.
104
00:04:31,705 --> 00:04:34,073
Shawn: She was such a
game-changer.
105
00:04:34,074 --> 00:04:37,144
She could get in the ring and
make it spectacular.
106
00:04:37,711 --> 00:04:39,945
Jim: She wants to be the number
one contender.
107
00:04:39,946 --> 00:04:41,348
The Undertaker doesn't care.
108
00:04:41,815 --> 00:04:43,849
Oh, one-- with one hand.
109
00:04:43,850 --> 00:04:45,585
And The Undertaker with a
chokeslam.
110
00:04:46,386 --> 00:04:48,254
Undertaker: She could go out
there night in,
111
00:04:48,255 --> 00:04:50,590
night out and bust her ass.
112
00:04:51,391 --> 00:04:52,691
Jim: Chyna knocked down.
113
00:04:52,692 --> 00:04:55,028
Helmsley knocked over the top
rope by The Undertaker.
114
00:04:55,629 --> 00:04:56,862
Paul: She did fight the guys.
115
00:04:56,863 --> 00:05:00,266
She did beat some of the biggest
names in this business
116
00:05:00,267 --> 00:05:03,170
as she shows the world
that that can be done.
117
00:05:03,637 --> 00:05:05,471
Jerry: Wait a minute, Jesse.
118
00:05:05,472 --> 00:05:06,272
Jesse Ventura: Chyna.
119
00:05:06,273 --> 00:05:07,039
[bell rings]
120
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:07,908
Jesse: Chyna wins it.
121
00:05:08,008 --> 00:05:08,507
Jim: Chyna is the number one
contender.
122
00:05:08,508 --> 00:05:09,476
Jerry: What?
123
00:05:09,576 --> 00:05:11,110
Road Dogg: I was in awe that she
was in that match.
124
00:05:11,111 --> 00:05:14,313
I damn sure didn't know she was
gonna win that match.
125
00:05:14,314 --> 00:05:16,749
And when I saw her win it and
how she won it,
126
00:05:16,750 --> 00:05:18,450
I was like, "Hell yeah."
127
00:05:18,451 --> 00:05:21,220
That was-- It made perfect
sense, and I loved it.
128
00:05:21,221 --> 00:05:22,789
Jim: Chyna's the number one
contender.
129
00:05:25,959 --> 00:05:28,093
Cole: For years, Chyna had
proven she could hold her own
130
00:05:28,094 --> 00:05:31,230
against the male superstars of
WWE.
131
00:05:31,231 --> 00:05:34,667
But in 2001, in front of over
68,000 fans, on the grand stage
132
00:05:34,668 --> 00:05:39,705
of WrestleMania 17, Chyna would
look to dominate the female
133
00:05:39,706 --> 00:05:44,277
division and capture her first
WWE Women's Championship.
134
00:05:47,247 --> 00:05:49,782
Jim: A tremendous ovation here
in the Reliant Astrodome
135
00:05:49,783 --> 00:05:53,353
for "The Ninth Wonder
of the World" Chyna.
136
00:05:53,954 --> 00:05:56,456
Keith Elliot Greenberg:
The fans enjoyed seeing
137
00:05:56,556 --> 00:06:01,094
her battling men, and now she
was in the women's division.
138
00:06:01,194 --> 00:06:02,262
Paul: Look at Chyna.
139
00:06:02,362 --> 00:06:07,266
She has nothing but title
aspirations in her eyes.
140
00:06:07,267 --> 00:06:09,902
Road Dogg: I loved how they
started that match.
141
00:06:09,903 --> 00:06:12,871
It was like so perfect that
she'd hit her with the title
142
00:06:12,872 --> 00:06:14,306
right away to get heat on her.
143
00:06:14,307 --> 00:06:15,541
[bell rings]
144
00:06:15,542 --> 00:06:16,743
Paul: And Ivory going to work
on the back of the neck.
145
00:06:16,843 --> 00:06:19,478
Mickie James: Never seen anyone
like Chyna before.
146
00:06:19,479 --> 00:06:23,148
She just seemed so intimidating
and is kind of like
147
00:06:23,149 --> 00:06:25,085
a Wonder Woman at that point.
148
00:06:25,752 --> 00:06:27,019
Jim: Chyna catching that leg.
149
00:06:27,020 --> 00:06:29,856
One-legged women don't win too
many butt-kicking contests.
150
00:06:29,956 --> 00:06:34,426
Ivory: There is something really
fun about telling a story with
151
00:06:34,427 --> 00:06:38,497
your physicality, but she can
really kick your ass.
152
00:06:38,498 --> 00:06:39,499
[laughing]
153
00:06:39,599 --> 00:06:40,833
Jim: Good grief.
154
00:06:40,834 --> 00:06:41,835
Look at this strength.
155
00:06:41,968 --> 00:06:45,704
Ivory up up-upstairs with
nowhere to go but down.
156
00:06:45,705 --> 00:06:51,143
Chyna enjoying this, and it is
over.
157
00:06:51,144 --> 00:06:52,177
[bell rings]
158
00:06:52,178 --> 00:06:54,881
Jim: And Chyna, it is-- was it
academic?
159
00:06:55,348 --> 00:06:57,416
Jade Cargill: There are so many
women that look up to Chyna.
160
00:06:57,417 --> 00:07:00,620
I mean, she was one of one,
and I think it just helped
161
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,856
the women's division as a whole.
162
00:07:02,956 --> 00:07:06,191
Jim: Chyna is the WWF Women's
Champion.
163
00:07:06,192 --> 00:07:07,694
Chyna: I fought for who I am and
what I am now,
164
00:07:07,794 --> 00:07:11,931
the World Wrestling--'s
Women's Champion.
165
00:07:11,932 --> 00:07:12,999
Pretty damn proud of it.
166
00:07:17,103 --> 00:07:17,871
Cole: The tournament to win the
King of the Ring crown
167
00:07:18,038 --> 00:07:21,874
had been an illustrious
title held by men.
168
00:07:21,875 --> 00:07:23,876
Gene: Bret "The Hitman" Hart.
169
00:07:23,877 --> 00:07:27,112
The King of the Ring.
170
00:07:27,113 --> 00:07:29,381
Cole: A right reserved for men.
171
00:07:29,382 --> 00:07:34,787
Announcer: The 1997 King of the
Ring, Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
172
00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:36,656
Cole: That was until The Ninth
Wonder of the World looked
173
00:07:36,756 --> 00:07:38,424
to shatter another ceiling.
174
00:07:38,425 --> 00:07:43,096
For the first time ever, a woman
was set to enter
175
00:07:43,196 --> 00:07:44,864
the King of the Ring Tournament.
176
00:07:47,834 --> 00:07:49,068
Kevin Kelly: Chyna, how
does it feel to be
177
00:07:49,069 --> 00:07:52,105
the first woman to enter the
King of the Ring Tournament?
178
00:07:52,205 --> 00:07:54,307
Chyna: Well, you know, when I
was a little girl,
179
00:07:54,407 --> 00:07:56,709
I only wanted
to be a princess.
180
00:07:56,710 --> 00:08:00,280
But now I'm all grown up, and
tonight, I'm gonna be a queen.
181
00:08:01,114 --> 00:08:04,149
Road Dogg, you got big brass
balls to step
182
00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:05,785
in the ring with me.
183
00:08:06,653 --> 00:08:08,454
Road Dogg: I faced her in the
first round
184
00:08:08,455 --> 00:08:10,089
of the King of the
Ring Tournament.
185
00:08:10,090 --> 00:08:14,493
I knew that she had the goods to
do what we needed to do,
186
00:08:14,494 --> 00:08:16,029
and we had a great match.
187
00:08:16,629 --> 00:08:17,463
Jim: Oh.
188
00:08:17,464 --> 00:08:18,263
Jerry: Oh-ho, man.
189
00:08:18,264 --> 00:08:19,431
Jim: Forearm shot.
190
00:08:19,432 --> 00:08:21,468
Paul: She didn't take a back
seat to anybody,
191
00:08:21,568 --> 00:08:25,505
and she was just as big in that
timeframe as all of us.
192
00:08:26,072 --> 00:08:26,705
Jerry: Look at this.
193
00:08:26,706 --> 00:08:27,506
Jim: DDT.
194
00:08:27,507 --> 00:08:28,741
Jerry: Whoo-hoo-hoo.
195
00:08:28,742 --> 00:08:30,342
Paul: If she got the ring, she
might whoop Road Dogg's ass
196
00:08:30,343 --> 00:08:33,079
for me, and people
didn't question it.
197
00:08:33,546 --> 00:08:36,015
[laughing]
198
00:08:36,016 --> 00:08:37,750
Jim: Chyna mocking the Road
Dogg.
199
00:08:37,751 --> 00:08:39,585
Road Dogg: She had hit me with
several low blows before.
200
00:08:39,586 --> 00:08:40,887
Jim: Oh, you can see what's
coming here.
201
00:08:42,022 --> 00:08:43,889
Oh, the shot and she hurt her
arm.
202
00:08:43,890 --> 00:08:44,557
Jerry: Huh?
203
00:08:44,657 --> 00:08:46,059
Jim: What the hell's that about?
204
00:08:46,793 --> 00:08:49,061
Road Dogg: That was the
infamous, "I came prepared."
205
00:08:49,062 --> 00:08:50,863
She hit me with a low blow from
behind.
206
00:08:50,864 --> 00:08:51,965
I pulled out the metal cup.
207
00:08:52,432 --> 00:08:53,265
Jim: Oh, the Road Dogg.
208
00:08:53,266 --> 00:08:54,000
Jerry: What?
209
00:08:54,167 --> 00:08:55,869
Jim: He's got a protective metal
cup.
210
00:08:56,202 --> 00:08:57,536
Road Dogg: We had a competitive
match.
211
00:08:57,537 --> 00:08:58,838
Jim: That'll be all.
212
00:08:59,406 --> 00:09:00,639
Jerry: You can't do that to a
lady.
213
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:01,306
Jim: The leg is hooked.
214
00:09:01,307 --> 00:09:01,940
Jerry: Stop.
215
00:09:01,941 --> 00:09:03,108
[bell rings]
216
00:09:03,109 --> 00:09:04,576
Road Dogg: She could have beat
me.
217
00:09:04,577 --> 00:09:06,512
People wouldn't have batted an
eye
218
00:09:06,513 --> 00:09:08,515
because that's how
believable she was.
219
00:09:09,282 --> 00:09:11,383
Jim: You've got a hand it to
Chyna for the effort,
220
00:09:11,384 --> 00:09:13,219
for her guts.
221
00:09:15,188 --> 00:09:17,222
Cole: There's no question that
Chyna was an icon both
222
00:09:17,223 --> 00:09:19,658
in and out of the ring.
223
00:09:19,659 --> 00:09:21,627
Her appearance on late-night
talk shows.
224
00:09:21,628 --> 00:09:23,028
Conan O'Brien: Chyna Fitness-
225
00:09:23,029 --> 00:09:23,929
Chyna: Yeah.
226
00:09:23,930 --> 00:09:25,464
Conan: -is available, uh, right
now.
227
00:09:25,465 --> 00:09:26,632
Chyna: Are you gonna try this?
228
00:09:26,633 --> 00:09:28,535
Conan: Yes.
229
00:09:29,402 --> 00:09:32,071
Cole: And various entertainment
outlets solidified her
230
00:09:32,072 --> 00:09:33,840
as a pop culture phenomenon.
231
00:09:34,674 --> 00:09:36,443
The presence of Chyna was
something to behold,
232
00:09:37,310 --> 00:09:39,478
and it was only a matter of time
before she would grace the
233
00:09:39,479 --> 00:09:42,815
cover of a renowned men's
magazine in a moment
234
00:09:42,816 --> 00:09:45,351
that would inspire
women everywhere.
235
00:09:48,788 --> 00:09:49,621
Jim: King, look here.
236
00:09:49,622 --> 00:09:50,489
Jerry: Yeah.
237
00:09:50,490 --> 00:09:51,424
Jim: Here's Chyna.
238
00:09:51,624 --> 00:09:54,093
Nothin' could be fina' on the
cover of Playboy.
239
00:09:54,094 --> 00:09:57,629
Lita: Chyna had just been in
Playboy and was really in a good
240
00:09:57,630 --> 00:10:02,267
stride of just being super proud
of who she was and enveloping
241
00:10:02,268 --> 00:10:05,904
all of her power and femininity.
242
00:10:05,905 --> 00:10:08,507
Chyna: You know, I'd worked so
many years on my body
243
00:10:08,508 --> 00:10:11,710
and thought that I'd been
given a gift that I ran with.
244
00:10:11,711 --> 00:10:15,614
And for so many years, people
ridiculed me.
245
00:10:15,615 --> 00:10:16,949
Beth Phoenix: I think she was
finding herself
246
00:10:16,950 --> 00:10:19,152
and trying to find her identity.
247
00:10:19,619 --> 00:10:22,221
Chyna: I have fought the odds,
and for that,
248
00:10:22,222 --> 00:10:24,022
I believe that I'm a pioneer,
249
00:10:24,023 --> 00:10:25,791
that that's why my
guys named me
250
00:10:25,792 --> 00:10:27,327
The Ninth Wonder of the World.
251
00:10:28,561 --> 00:10:30,497
One of the reasons why this was
so huge is because
252
00:10:30,597 --> 00:10:35,467
it shows a very strong, sexy,
powerful, plenty of woman,
253
00:10:35,468 --> 00:10:37,469
and-and I believe that's me.
254
00:10:37,470 --> 00:10:40,272
Jim: She's earned everything
she's-- that's coming her way.
255
00:10:40,273 --> 00:10:43,709
Chyna: When people told me that
I was ugly and could never be
256
00:10:43,710 --> 00:10:47,447
Playboy material, well, I guess
that I had to prove them wrong.
257
00:10:48,748 --> 00:10:49,949
Jerry: Oh, yeah.
258
00:10:50,083 --> 00:10:52,952
Jim: And you did it, young lady,
and we're damn proud of you.
259
00:10:53,586 --> 00:10:56,856
Shawn: There's gazillions of
editions of Playboys,
260
00:10:56,956 --> 00:10:59,391
but she was one of a kind.
261
00:10:59,392 --> 00:11:01,393
Chyna: I worked my ass off to
get here,
262
00:11:01,394 --> 00:11:04,631
and I am gonna show it in
Playboy magazine.
263
00:11:09,936 --> 00:11:12,905
Cole: Never before had a woman
served as an enforcer for a male
264
00:11:12,906 --> 00:11:16,475
superstar, but that's exactly
what Chyna's role
265
00:11:16,476 --> 00:11:17,911
was alongside Triple H.
266
00:11:18,545 --> 00:11:20,512
But Chyna's constant
interference would prove
267
00:11:20,513 --> 00:11:23,515
to be too much for WWE
Commissioner
268
00:11:23,516 --> 00:11:25,050
Sgt. Slaughter.
269
00:11:25,051 --> 00:11:28,021
Triple H: Who in the hell do you
think you are?
270
00:11:28,121 --> 00:11:30,689
Cole: And at Unforgiven In Your
House, The Ninth Wonder of the
271
00:11:30,690 --> 00:11:34,260
World would get a much more
precarious vantage point as
272
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,631
Triple H defended his European
Championship against Owen Hart.
273
00:11:41,401 --> 00:11:43,268
Jerry: Thanks to Commissioner
Slaughter,
274
00:11:43,269 --> 00:11:45,672
she's gonna be locked away
like an animal.
275
00:11:46,105 --> 00:11:48,507
Kofi Kingston: With her being
suspended above the ring
276
00:11:48,508 --> 00:11:52,477
in a cage, you thought that,
"Okay, maybe she's contained."
277
00:11:52,478 --> 00:11:54,513
Jerry: I can't believe they're
doing this to Chyna.
278
00:11:54,514 --> 00:11:56,782
If she wants to, she could
probably snap that chain.
279
00:11:56,783 --> 00:11:59,451
Jim: Knocks down Owen with a
clothesline.
280
00:11:59,452 --> 00:12:01,554
And Owen with the elbow off the
top.
281
00:12:02,222 --> 00:12:04,289
Jade: She was presented as a
powerhouse, a wonder of the
282
00:12:04,290 --> 00:12:06,491
world, something you've never
seen before.
283
00:12:06,492 --> 00:12:07,827
Jim: She is right where she
belongs.
284
00:12:08,428 --> 00:12:09,828
Beth: We just hadn't built a
woman
285
00:12:09,829 --> 00:12:11,129
like that up to that point.
286
00:12:11,130 --> 00:12:13,699
Jim: Chyna has bent one of those
bars.
287
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:17,703
Kofi: Bend the steel bars just
solidified her as the beast
288
00:12:17,704 --> 00:12:19,271
that she was being built to be.
289
00:12:19,272 --> 00:12:21,106
Jim: The cage is coming down.
290
00:12:21,107 --> 00:12:22,674
Why is the cage coming down?
291
00:12:22,675 --> 00:12:24,376
Who lowered that cage?
292
00:12:24,377 --> 00:12:25,510
It was Road Dogg.
293
00:12:25,511 --> 00:12:26,646
Road Dogg: Somebody lowered the
cage.
294
00:12:27,380 --> 00:12:28,948
I didn't get a good look at 'em.
295
00:12:29,048 --> 00:12:30,650
It was from the back of their
head.
296
00:12:30,750 --> 00:12:32,185
I didn't know who it was.
297
00:12:32,652 --> 00:12:33,585
Jerry: Look at this.
298
00:12:33,586 --> 00:12:34,987
Jim: Chyna-Chyna's being
restrained.
299
00:12:34,988 --> 00:12:38,023
The Pedigree, his own hold.
300
00:12:38,024 --> 00:12:38,824
Wait a minute.
301
00:12:38,825 --> 00:12:39,658
No ref.
302
00:12:39,659 --> 00:12:41,493
There's X-Pac.
303
00:12:41,494 --> 00:12:43,228
X-Pac: I got in the middle of
it.
304
00:12:43,229 --> 00:12:44,497
Jim: Oh, come on.
305
00:12:44,597 --> 00:12:45,831
No, no, no.
306
00:12:45,832 --> 00:12:46,665
[bell rings]
307
00:12:46,666 --> 00:12:47,499
Jerry: Look at this.
308
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:48,400
Look at Chyna.
309
00:12:48,401 --> 00:12:49,434
X-Pac: That moment, it was
brilliant.
310
00:12:49,435 --> 00:12:50,435
It was perfect.
311
00:12:50,436 --> 00:12:52,671
I mean, it blew the roof off the
place, right?
312
00:12:52,672 --> 00:12:54,040
Jerry: I knew she could do it.
313
00:12:56,709 --> 00:12:58,543
Cole: During DX's ongoing
rivalry
314
00:12:58,544 --> 00:13:01,313
with the Nation of
Domination in 1998,
315
00:13:01,314 --> 00:13:04,951
Chyna would quickly catch
the eye of one, Mark Henry.
316
00:13:05,818 --> 00:13:09,988
Mark Henry: All I want is for me
and you
317
00:13:09,989 --> 00:13:11,524
to go out on a nice dinner.
318
00:13:12,158 --> 00:13:14,459
Cole: Well, what would happen
when The World's Strongest Man
319
00:13:14,460 --> 00:13:18,897
and the world's strongest woman
had an actual date?
320
00:13:18,898 --> 00:13:20,833
Chyna: Okay, Mark, I'll do it.
321
00:13:21,634 --> 00:13:22,467
Jim: I don't-
322
00:13:22,468 --> 00:13:23,136
Jerry: I can't believe it.
323
00:13:23,236 --> 00:13:23,935
Jim: -I don't believe it either.
324
00:13:23,936 --> 00:13:24,636
Look--
325
00:13:24,637 --> 00:13:25,605
Jerry: Look at Mark.
326
00:13:26,506 --> 00:13:29,074
?
327
00:13:29,075 --> 00:13:30,709
Mark: Chyna,
what's up, baby?
328
00:13:30,710 --> 00:13:31,977
Baby girl?
329
00:13:31,978 --> 00:13:34,946
Mick Foley: My favorite moment
is when she begrudgingly went
330
00:13:34,947 --> 00:13:36,316
out on a date with Mark Henry.
331
00:13:37,984 --> 00:13:39,185
Mark: Here are your flowers.
332
00:13:39,752 --> 00:13:41,219
Chyna: Just get this over with,
Mark.
333
00:13:41,220 --> 00:13:42,587
Mark: Look, we're gonna have a
good time.
334
00:13:42,588 --> 00:13:45,624
I mean, you'll be thanking me by
the end of the night.
335
00:13:45,625 --> 00:13:49,628
We get there, man, and, you
know, the dancing starts,
336
00:13:49,629 --> 00:13:50,797
and we're having a good time.
337
00:13:52,265 --> 00:13:53,833
Mickie: Sweet dance moves.
338
00:13:54,233 --> 00:13:56,401
That was also the first time you
really saw
339
00:13:56,402 --> 00:13:58,204
more personality out of Chyna.
340
00:13:58,671 --> 00:14:01,506
Road Dogg: To see her crack a
little, that tough girl's
341
00:14:01,507 --> 00:14:05,011
facade, fans saw a different
layer of her.
342
00:14:05,712 --> 00:14:08,313
Mark: Things that I remember the
most is me trying to make
343
00:14:08,314 --> 00:14:11,317
her laugh, and she
just never broke.
344
00:14:11,951 --> 00:14:13,652
Well, I'm gonna go powder my
nose.
345
00:14:13,653 --> 00:14:14,821
I'll be right back.
346
00:14:14,921 --> 00:14:17,823
And these guys decided to heckle
her,
347
00:14:17,824 --> 00:14:19,392
and we beat the hell
out of those guys.
348
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:22,929
Jim: Chyna just leveled that
guy.
349
00:14:23,229 --> 00:14:23,929
Jerry: Whoa.
350
00:14:23,930 --> 00:14:25,063
Jim: Mark Henry.
351
00:14:25,064 --> 00:14:27,700
Mick: There was a cheer that
went up backstage like,
352
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,267
"This is good."
353
00:14:29,268 --> 00:14:31,838
This is everything we love about
Sports Entertainment.
354
00:14:33,506 --> 00:14:34,706
Mark: I miss Chyna.
355
00:14:34,707 --> 00:14:37,543
She was really, really a
talented woman, and to get to
356
00:14:37,643 --> 00:14:42,981
know her and go on a date that
ended up being a disaster.
357
00:14:42,982 --> 00:14:44,816
But it's something that
wrestling fans
358
00:14:44,817 --> 00:14:47,420
will remember forever, and
I-I'll never forget it either.
359
00:14:48,788 --> 00:14:50,590
Chyna: $1.99, Mark.
360
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,828
Cole: Chyna was undoubtedly a
cornerstone of the legendary
361
00:14:56,829 --> 00:14:59,899
D-Generation X and their wild
antics.
362
00:14:59,999 --> 00:15:02,033
Triple H: Chyna, show us what
you're bringing
363
00:15:02,034 --> 00:15:03,535
to the barbecue, girl.
364
00:15:03,536 --> 00:15:05,937
That is the big stick.
365
00:15:05,938 --> 00:15:07,472
Cole: But as the saying goes,
the grass
366
00:15:07,473 --> 00:15:09,908
may be greener on
the other side.
367
00:15:09,909 --> 00:15:15,148
And in January 1999, Chyna would
make a career-altering decision.
368
00:15:17,517 --> 00:15:19,651
The corporate champion,
The Rock,
369
00:15:19,652 --> 00:15:22,220
in an I Quit match
against Triple H.
370
00:15:22,221 --> 00:15:26,459
The only way you win is when
your opponent says, I quit.
371
00:15:26,559 --> 00:15:27,860
The corporate team.
372
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,062
What the hell are they doing out
here?
373
00:15:30,163 --> 00:15:30,862
Jerry: Look at this.
374
00:15:30,863 --> 00:15:32,063
Cole: Kane has Chyna.
375
00:15:32,064 --> 00:15:32,899
Kane has Chyna.
376
00:15:32,999 --> 00:15:33,498
Jerry: Look.
377
00:15:33,499 --> 00:15:34,266
Look.
378
00:15:34,267 --> 00:15:35,433
Triple H: You listen to me.
379
00:15:35,434 --> 00:15:38,870
Chyna was this larger-than-life
superhero that could fight
380
00:15:38,871 --> 00:15:40,807
anybody and that could win.
381
00:15:41,274 --> 00:15:42,674
Jerry: Don't do it, Triple H.
382
00:15:42,675 --> 00:15:44,276
Speaker 1: Either you quit or
she goes for a ride.
383
00:15:44,277 --> 00:15:45,744
Triple: Okay, all right, all
right.
384
00:15:45,745 --> 00:15:46,478
You win.
385
00:15:46,479 --> 00:15:47,078
All right.
386
00:15:47,079 --> 00:15:48,147
I quit.
387
00:15:48,247 --> 00:15:48,914
Jerry: What?
388
00:15:48,915 --> 00:15:50,081
Cole: Triple H said I quit.
389
00:15:50,082 --> 00:15:51,383
Triple H: Put her down.
390
00:15:51,384 --> 00:15:54,019
Lita: Chyna just came into her
own, and you could tell from the
391
00:15:54,020 --> 00:15:55,955
crowd all they wanted was more.
392
00:15:58,257 --> 00:15:58,824
Jerry: What--
393
00:15:58,825 --> 00:15:59,424
Cole: No.
394
00:15:59,425 --> 00:16:00,091
Jerry: What?
395
00:16:00,092 --> 00:16:00,792
Cole: No.
396
00:16:00,793 --> 00:16:01,593
What the hell?
397
00:16:01,594 --> 00:16:02,294
Chyna-
398
00:16:02,295 --> 00:16:03,228
Jerry: What?
399
00:16:03,229 --> 00:16:04,430
Cole: -just delivered a low
blow.
400
00:16:05,097 --> 00:16:06,899
Beth: Truly, the first thought
that came to my mind was,
401
00:16:06,999 --> 00:16:08,367
"Is this- is this happening?"
402
00:16:09,068 --> 00:16:10,001
Cole: What the hell?
403
00:16:10,002 --> 00:16:11,670
Triple H can't believe it.
404
00:16:11,671 --> 00:16:16,042
Chyna, Chyna, Chyna has turned
her back on Triple H.
405
00:16:16,909 --> 00:16:19,744
Kofi: Seeing Chyna turn on DX
was shocking,
406
00:16:19,745 --> 00:16:22,915
but at the same time was
her kind of breaking free.
407
00:16:23,516 --> 00:16:25,818
Cole: Chyna has joined The
Corporation.
408
00:16:26,586 --> 00:16:29,754
Peter: It's one of those holy
[bleep] moments,
409
00:16:29,755 --> 00:16:31,757
and the crowd doesn't quite
know what to do.
410
00:16:33,392 --> 00:16:35,193
Cole: I can't believe it.
411
00:16:35,194 --> 00:16:39,264
"The Ninth Wonder of the World"
Chyna has left DX.
412
00:16:39,265 --> 00:16:40,500
Jerry: What a night.
413
00:16:44,871 --> 00:16:46,271
Cole: Heading into the 1999
event, the Royal Rumble
414
00:16:46,272 --> 00:16:48,740
had been around for
over a decade.
415
00:16:48,741 --> 00:16:52,812
In all previous 300-plus
entrances had been men,
416
00:16:53,779 --> 00:16:57,148
yet Chyna did the unthinkable
that would redefine
417
00:16:57,149 --> 00:16:59,352
Sports Entertainment
as we know it.
418
00:17:02,355 --> 00:17:03,588
[crowd counts down]
419
00:17:03,589 --> 00:17:04,991
Cole: Number 30
on the way.
420
00:17:06,893 --> 00:17:08,093
[buzzer]
421
00:17:08,094 --> 00:17:12,297
Making WWF history, The Ninth
Wonder of the World,
422
00:17:12,298 --> 00:17:16,335
the first woman ever to enter
the Royal Rumble match.
423
00:17:16,903 --> 00:17:19,137
Beth: She walked to the ring
with a purpose.
424
00:17:19,138 --> 00:17:22,874
I'm going to go for the biggest,
strongest man in this ring,
425
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:26,279
and that is Mark Henry, who is a
legitimate Olympian.
426
00:17:29,315 --> 00:17:30,316
Jerry: Look at this.
427
00:17:30,950 --> 00:17:32,218
Cole: And Mark Henry, now.
428
00:17:32,318 --> 00:17:33,786
Chyna taking it to Mark Henry.
429
00:17:34,787 --> 00:17:36,555
Mark: I'm trying to be a
gentleman.
430
00:17:36,556 --> 00:17:38,257
She took my kindness for a
weakness.
431
00:17:39,425 --> 00:17:40,459
Jerry: Oh.
432
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,395
Cole: Hell hath no fury like a
woman scorned.
433
00:17:43,396 --> 00:17:45,197
Mark: Chyna was different.
434
00:17:45,598 --> 00:17:48,034
She sets the standard very high
for women's wrestling.
435
00:17:48,868 --> 00:17:51,704
Cole: And there goes Mark Henry
sent over the top.
436
00:17:51,804 --> 00:17:52,504
Vince: Oh, no.
437
00:17:52,505 --> 00:17:53,471
Jerry: Sweet Jesus.
438
00:17:53,472 --> 00:17:54,472
Cole: Has been eliminated by
Chyna.
439
00:17:54,473 --> 00:17:55,675
Vince: How did she do that?
440
00:17:56,309 --> 00:17:58,543
Jade: It showed that women can
go out there and take on
441
00:17:58,544 --> 00:18:01,313
a man too, and create
something new
442
00:18:01,314 --> 00:18:02,748
for the women's
world of wrestling.
443
00:18:03,482 --> 00:18:04,617
Jerry: I can't believe it.
444
00:18:04,717 --> 00:18:06,985
Jade: No one's gonna be the next
Chyna.
445
00:18:06,986 --> 00:18:08,020
She's a legend.
446
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:08,954
Jerry: Oh.
447
00:18:08,955 --> 00:18:09,788
Cole: There goes Chyna.
448
00:18:09,789 --> 00:18:10,822
Jerry: Man.
449
00:18:10,823 --> 00:18:12,057
Cole: The Rattlesnake doesn't
give a damn
450
00:18:12,058 --> 00:18:14,393
if you're a man or a woman.
451
00:18:15,494 --> 00:18:17,462
And now we've reached our number
one moment.
452
00:18:17,463 --> 00:18:21,032
By 1999, Chyna had dominated the
squared circle
453
00:18:21,033 --> 00:18:23,234
like no woman had done before.
454
00:18:23,235 --> 00:18:25,937
This was much to the dismay of
Intercontinental Champion,
455
00:18:25,938 --> 00:18:29,341
Jeff Jarrett, who had been
openly berating women.
456
00:18:29,342 --> 00:18:31,276
Jeff Jarrett: You see, Chyna,
I'm telling you for the last
457
00:18:31,277 --> 00:18:34,279
time that the place for a woman
is in the kitchen,
458
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,015
barefoot, pregnant.
459
00:18:36,449 --> 00:18:38,183
Cole: His chauvinistic ways
would ultimately lead
460
00:18:38,184 --> 00:18:41,786
to a first in WWE, a good
housekeeping match
461
00:18:41,787 --> 00:18:45,290
for the Intercontinental
Championship on the line.
462
00:18:45,291 --> 00:18:46,391
Chyna: You couldn't stop me from
getting
463
00:18:46,392 --> 00:18:47,993
in the ring with Jeff Jarrett.
464
00:18:47,994 --> 00:18:51,629
Jeff: Because I'm gonna beat you
with every household
465
00:18:51,630 --> 00:18:53,632
appliance known to woman.
466
00:18:57,069 --> 00:18:59,505
Jim: The intercontinental
title on the line
467
00:18:59,605 --> 00:19:01,873
in a first-ever good
housekeeping matchup.
468
00:19:01,874 --> 00:19:03,075
Jerry: Whoa, man.
469
00:19:03,676 --> 00:19:05,076
Jeff Hardy: When you looked at
her and then looked
470
00:19:05,077 --> 00:19:07,246
at Jeff Jarrett, it was
ahead of its time.
471
00:19:07,646 --> 00:19:08,513
Jerry: I can't believe it.
472
00:19:08,514 --> 00:19:09,615
Jim: Very impressive move by
Chyna.
473
00:19:10,082 --> 00:19:12,217
Jeff: To say it was
revolutionary doesn't really
474
00:19:12,218 --> 00:19:14,353
put it into words accurately.
475
00:19:14,787 --> 00:19:17,589
Jim: She says she's the most
dangerous woman in the world.
476
00:19:17,590 --> 00:19:20,091
Mick: They literally hit each
other with everything,
477
00:19:20,092 --> 00:19:22,394
including the kitchen sink.
478
00:19:22,395 --> 00:19:23,094
Jerry: And the kitchen sink.
479
00:19:23,095 --> 00:19:23,795
Ooh.
480
00:19:23,796 --> 00:19:24,896
Jim: The kitchen sink.
481
00:19:24,897 --> 00:19:26,231
Jerry: Oh, no.
482
00:19:26,232 --> 00:19:27,065
Jim: Oh, the low blow.
483
00:19:27,066 --> 00:19:29,402
Jerry: Oh, no.
484
00:19:30,403 --> 00:19:31,236
Look out, Jeff.
485
00:19:31,237 --> 00:19:32,470
Jim: Oh, man.
486
00:19:32,471 --> 00:19:35,408
Mickie: She hit him with that
guitar so hard it went flying.
487
00:19:35,875 --> 00:19:37,410
Jim: It's going to be over right
here.
488
00:19:40,246 --> 00:19:41,112
[bell rings]
489
00:19:41,113 --> 00:19:41,913
[crowd cheers]
490
00:19:41,914 --> 00:19:42,748
[Chyna's music]
491
00:19:42,848 --> 00:19:44,450
Jim: Chyna, the first woman to
become
492
00:19:44,550 --> 00:19:45,985
the Intercontinental Champion.
493
00:19:48,354 --> 00:19:52,390
Mickie: To go and then win a
belt that was only held by men,
494
00:19:52,391 --> 00:19:55,394
I think it was groundbreaking,
and it was empowering.
495
00:19:56,662 --> 00:20:00,865
Paul: It was a paradigm shift of
the thinking of how people saw
496
00:20:00,866 --> 00:20:02,668
women and women of power
497
00:20:02,768 --> 00:20:04,670
and what women could do
with that power.
498
00:20:06,038 --> 00:20:07,539
Jeff Jarrett: That night in
Cleveland,
499
00:20:07,540 --> 00:20:08,708
history was truly made.
500
00:20:09,675 --> 00:20:11,644
Jim: Chyna has made history.
501
00:20:13,145 --> 00:20:15,881
The first woman to wear
Intercontinental gold.
502
00:20:19,185 --> 00:20:21,220
Cole: As evidenced by her
numerous accolades,
503
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,223
it is abundantly clear that
Chyna is nothing short
504
00:20:24,323 --> 00:20:26,025
of a true trailblazer.
505
00:20:26,559 --> 00:20:29,894
That'll do it for this edition
of WWE's Greatest Moments.
506
00:20:29,895 --> 00:20:32,097
We hope you've enjoyed this trip
down memory lane,
507
00:20:32,098 --> 00:20:34,132
recapping the incredible
career
508
00:20:34,133 --> 00:20:36,368
of "The Ninth Wonder
of the World" Chyna.
