      So listening to the Stone Cold podcast with HHH, he brought up if Chyna should be in the Hall of Fame. HHH basically said if a kid google's her and sees what comes up... then what? ... All I have to ask is, what about Sunny? And how does X-Pac get on TV?

        It's not called "Backdoor to X-Pac". If you go to Chyna's Wikipedia page, "pornographic actress" is in the first sentence. She did multiple professional movies, it's not really the same thing.

          Whether you agree with what Trips said or not, I think we can all understand the reasoning.

            Yep, If you look up Sean Waltman/X-Pac, you still get mostly wrestling related stuff by a wide margin. Chyna literally went into that business as a professional and it's half of what you get when you search her names.

            Sunny doesn't work as an example since she didn't go downhill till after her induction really. She had her run-ins with the law after that and was kicked out of the WWE's rehab program during that time. She started selling bed pictures in 2013 and nude Skype sessions last year. She hasn't really been mentioned much if at all since this stuff started happening.

              You guys have a point with Xpac.

              But I'm sorry, Sunny was a train wreck before her call to the WWE HOF. She didn't try to clean up her act till after that phone call.

                Yeah not sure where you got Sunny going downhill after her induction. She went off the rails long before she got that phone call. Which is part of why so many were surprised to see her get it. She was hanging out with friggin Missy Hyatt in the years after her run in the WWF after all and I think we've all seen the results of that. She cleaned herself up a lot to get that call and then went back downhill afterwards.

                  I thought we were mostly talking about the porn stuff. She had one incident before then. The drug and backstage stuff, yeah I understand that.

                  Also I get the feeling that WWE wanted another story like Jake the Snake and Scott Hall have turned into where they helped them out a ton and can pat themselves on the back. Didn't work out and now she's not really brought up much.

                    Either way, there's no comparison of the two.

                        I get and understand and actually kinda support why they aren't letting Chyna in.

                        But, man. I mean Austin's sitting right across from you and he beat his wife.

                        Jimmy Snuka probably killed someone.

                        It's just weird to see how they draw that line. The line of what you can do and still get in seems to be proportional to how big a star you were.

                        Now, I'm not saying Austin shouldn't be in. Obviously he should be. It's just a weird dichotomy, having that guy be the one asking that question and getting that answer.

                            When was Snuka inducted into the HOF? I believe it was a while ago and I don't think WWE was really looking too hard at what these performers did outside of the ring.

                            The story of Snuka's ex-girlfriend's murder only re-surfaced a year ago, but man, it's pretty incredible if you read the facts behind it how he was never charged with anything when the incident originally occurred.

                            As for Chyna, I think Triple H brought up some good points as to why she's not in. I think the fact he used to date her doesn't help the cause, even though there's no animosity on his side, I'm sure WWE would like to keep distance between Triple H and Chyna.

                              I think it's more of a timing thing than strictly drawing the line at porn.

                              Other wrestler's problems weren't as publicized at the time of their inductions. You can obviously find this info if you specifically look for it, where you're going to be hit with Chyna's porn career pretty quickly without necessarily going out of your way because she's done that most recently.

                                I really think it's just the Google thing. If I Google Snuka, Austin, Sunny, etc. it's going to take a little bit of research to see all that. Chyna's porn career is literally the first thing on her Wikipedia page. It's not hypocritical at all; it's not because of what she's done post-wwe, it's because of how easy it would be for kids to learn of it and access it.
