“They offered her the WWE Championship belt, but Vince said, ‘But you can’t do Playboy’ because she got offered to do Playboy,” Anthony Anzaldo told WrestlingInc. “She chose Playboy over the belt.”
“Vince says, ‘If you do Playboy, you don’t get the belt.’ She said f–k the belt. I’m doing Playboy. Highest selling out of the box Playboy, first week Playboy, in the history of Playboy, more than Kim Kardashian. It’s top three of all time behind Kardashian and Marilyn Monroe.”
Chyna modelled for Playboy twice. Once in 2000 and another in 2002.
Chyna never won the WWE Championship. However, she did win the Intercontinental Championship twice. She was finally inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame last year. Although, it came as part of D-Generation X.
