(John Bobbitt broke out into a cold sweat after reading that last sentence)Ĭhyna, on the other hand, would not accept her defeat, blaming Joey’s dirty tactics (such as throwing her around and landing lots and lots of punches) for the loss.
Joey Buttafuoco used his victory speech to offer a cutting critique of the penal system. In the end, Chyna survived with her million-dollar face intact, but lost by judges’ decision, no doubt to the announcers’ shock. …and pummeled her until her gargantuan protective headgear covered her eyes. …even as Buttafuoco knocked Laurer down again… Showing utter disdain for his opponent’s abilities…Ĭhyna landed one good punch, to little effect, but that didn’t stop the announcers from trying to paint the match as an even fight… (Speaking of obvious, it turns out Laurer was the one in the red shorts - the one who’s a woman and not boxing topless)Īlso obvious? Chyna couldn’t throw a punch.īut what she lacked in size and technique, she made up for in guts, except for all the times when she turned her back to Joey so she could run away or protect her expensive face. When the fight got underway, the size difference was obvious. That is to say, when she started wrestling women instead of men. Is there another term I should be using instead of “Glamazon”?), she had trimmed down considerably since then as part of her male-to-female transition. Second, while Chyna had once been the definition of a “Glamazon” (except for the “glamor” part. That meant cumbersome, oversized headgear and a fighting style that saw Laurer take punches to the back of the head. Nose jobs and jaw-sculpting don’t necessarily affect one’s ability to fight, but Joanie wasn’t about to risk the face that launched a thousand ships (all of them yachts bought by plastic surgeons with Chyna money). First, Laurer had gotten lots of cosmetic surgery on her face. After years of playing a powerful crusader for equality in the scripted world of wrestling, Chyna could finally strike a literal blow for women the world over by knocking out the sleazy womanizer.Īnyone who saw Laurer debut in the WWF would have thought her to be a shoo-in, but a lot had happened between 19. That meant that Joanie would be pitted against statutory rapist and all-around sack of crap, 46-year-old Joey Buttafuoco. That would-be boxer’s name? John Wayne Bobbitt.
