The Ninth Wonder of the World was given the chance to jump to WCW.

Even today, Chyna remains a one of a kind Superstar in wrestling history. Debuting in the WWF in 1997, the ninth wonder of the world broke down what it meant to be a woman in the industry, tackling with her male counterparts during the majority of her career.

Chyna's look and charisma quickly attracted the attention of WCW, as the Hall of Famer revealed in her autobiography that she had been offered a contract to jump ship and was promised a spot in the nWo. Ultimately, it would be Shane McMahon who would convince the future Intercontinental Champion to stay, and though WCW would have a Chyna rip off (the unoriginally named Asya), this replication never had the same success or iconic career as the ninth wonder of the world.
