"I had a breakup right before I saw her, so I was kind of down. I was really kind of the 'boohoo', that 'woe is me' s–t. And she was there to scoop me up. Things just happened, man," he said.

X-Pac and Chyna dated for a few months before announcing their engagement. Nevertheless, the two Hall of Famers' ended their relationship in 2005.

In April 2016, The Ninth Wonder of the World tragically passed away. During her memorial, the former European Champion revealed in his speech that he loved her until the day she passed away.

"Joanie and I had a really rocky relationship (...) Until the day she died, I loved her very much, I really did (...) I hope you forgive me for not taking better care of you," he said.

X-Pac retired from professional wrestling nearly four years ago. He last competed in April 2019 when he teamed up with Hurricane Helms and Jushin Thunder Liger to defeat Revolt at WrestleCon Mark Hitchcock Memorial SuperShow. The former European Champion recently announced that he would make his in-ring return at GCW Welcome to Heartbreak. He will team up with Joey Janela to face Matt Cardona and Brian Myers.
