Joanie Laurer Blasts Vince McMahon, WWE
In an interview on Jim Rome's radio show, Joanie Laurer (Chyna) said there's a lot of blame to go around for the Chris Benoit murder-suicide - and Vince McMahon deserves a lot of it.
The former WWE Diva said that she thinks steroids, depression, and mental stress were probably the main factors in Benoit committing these heinous acts. She also blasted WWE and McMahon, saying that he tends to wash his hands of any tragedy that happens in WWE and that she has no respect for the owner.
Laurer also said the WWE hid Benoit's problems and described her own negative experiences in wrestling.
The Wrestling Post's take: Laurer is desperate for attention and it's despicable that she's using this event to garner it. There's no way the former Chyna has had any contact with Benoit in years; who is she to say what led to this horrific act?
This is a bitter former WWE star trying to find a way back into the spotlight. While wrestling has many internal problems to work on, it cannot be blamed for this sort of drastic, immoral, brutal course of action.
