Former WWE Intercontinental and Women’s Champion Chyna is undergoing yet another career change: she’s becoming an English language teacher.
The wrestler-turned adult movie actress will be moving to Japan to teach English to Japanese students, according to PWInsider.
While this may seem like an abrupt change for Chyna, it’s actually been years in the making. We first heard about Chyna’s desire to teach over two years ago. In 2011, she announced that she was enrolling in night classes at UCLA to gain the skills necessary to teach in Japan.
Her adult film career dates back to 2010 and includes the film “Backdoor To Chyna”.
Chyna has already set up a YouTube account and uploaded several English tutorials.
Watch Chyna discuss her move to Japan in an interview with co-worker Jean K. below:
This news comes alongside the release of Chyna’s final adult movie, “She-Hulk XXX”. It’s available to purchase online by clicking here (link NSFW). Beware of the gamma radiation!
What do you think of Chyna’s new career path?

if it gets her closer to being happy – go for it

I see this as a positive thing, at least she does have a plan and is going somewhere. Go Chyna! Best of luck to you. Imagine having her as a teacher! How cool.

Good for her. It’s great to see a headline about her that doesn’t involve any sort of suspected drug related issues.

She-Hulk Becomes Teacher! lol but maybe a more dignified picture is more appropriate for this headline!

Coincidentally, She-Hulk is a lawyer, so….just sayin’, Chyna, go for it.

I legit burst out laughing when I saw that she-hulk photo. Couldn’t read this news story with a straight face.

A nice normal life might do her some good! My husband’s brother and his wife are in Mexico teaching them english. They say they never felt more fulfilled! I wish her all the luck in the world, and hope she finds true happiness overseas!

Reminds me of Molly Holly
De left to Central America to teac and she felt super fulfilled
Sometimes that kind of break-off from the city life does the soul a necessary good that no city pleasure can EVER compare to
Damn now I’m in the mood to listen to Baker Street..

It’s just unfortunate that Vince and Stephanie have completely blacklisted her. Sure her behavior these past few years may have been questionable (her calling out Vince various times) etc etc but I would have loved to see her have just one more WWE run. If she knocked off the ring rust and got herself ring ready, she could have drawn lots of much needed attention to the divas division. You can tell she really wants to come back, she just went about it the wrong way. And of course the porn thing didn’t help her either. It would have been nice to see her in action under the WWE lights again, though.

That will never happen as she never wanted to be apart of the divas div (its the wwe though)
That picture of chyna as she-wolf is HORRENDOUS looking, Anyway good luck in your future endeavours chyna , change that negative lifestyle for the better!!!!

Chyna never wanted to be a part of the divas division back in 1998-2001, back in those days it was the ‘attitude era’ where men and women could legally compete in the ring. In today’s WWE ‘PG era’ men and women cannot compete in the ring together so if Chyna had to return she would be fully aware that she would have to be apart of the diva division which i feel she would be willing to compete in, considering her desire to return to WWE and the fact that she has lost the majority of her body muscle mass. I feel that Chyna would be a massive draw to the WWE diva division and a lot of old school fans would tune back in to see a prominent part of the attitude era back on their screens. IMO seeing Chyna back on WWE programming can only be a good thing.

She-Hulk, not She-Wolf. Although Jennifer was married to MAN-Wolf for a short time (who was J. Jonah Jameson’s son), but it turned out her feelings for him were as a result of being zapped by a ‘love beam’ by Starfox.
And yes. That picture is awful. Chyna playing Jennifer Walters would be like Triple-H playing Mr Fantastic.

I like the dogs in the video! so cute^^

May God bless her!!
I was rooting for HHH all those years because of Chyna. Chyna was such an attention magnet, a sort of enigma. HHH was a ugly generic wrestler with moderate skills, he wouldn’t have been this famous if not for people tuning in to see what Chyna would do in his matches. That’s the God’s truth!! So this women busts her @$$ for him and make him a star and all she gets is not even a decent breakup!! I really wish Shane McMahon comes back and take over the company!
The comparison is bizarre but I was tuning in to see Ted Jr when he was with Maryse. It’s shocking how much a charismatic valet can enhance your marketability! And Chyna is 1129928899009090 X more awesome than Maryse. If HHH didn’t have Chyna for his valet, he would be someone like Val Venis with a gimmick change every spring!?
Anyhow, I was saddened with her decision to do pornography, it was self destruction in her case!! I really wish the Big J lets her find a MAN (not a pussy) who would make her happy! I also wonder how the parents would react to an ex-pornstar teaching their children. Be safe Joanie Laurer!! Please ditch that awful name “Chyna.”

I think in Japan there more open minded about stuff like that I mean the anime has so much fan service it’s funny!

AMEN!! agree with everything you say about Chyna and HHH! He would not have been the main event draw he was if it wasnt for Chyna and Steph wouldn’t have noticed him if he wasn’t a main eventer so it was basically Chyna who got HHH where he was today and she gets absolutely no credit for it at all!

Good for her. It’s nice to see that she is doing what she likes and has a passion for. A normal life for her is maybe what she needs.

people foget that we are all humans we all made mistakes that we wished we could erase prayers for her if she wants to leave and that’s what’s best for her she didn’t kill anyone so people need to stop being so rude , just like Scott Hall people easily bash why not help support or not say nothing at alll Chyna may god bless you!

That’s probably for the best. There’s nothing wrong with doing porn if you can handle it and that’s what you really want to do, but I don’t think that was really the case for Chyna. She’s had a difficult life and faced some bad times and serious issues, and I can’t image being in the adult industry would do anything other than make it worse.
She’s honestly a really intelligent and well-educated woman and I hope she finds success, happiness, and stability with this.

Wow ill be surprised if they actually hire her , I mean what is she gonna do if one of her students bring up her porn past?? She’s better off as a sex ed instructor

Well porn career aside, she IS fluent in about five languages other than English, so she’d probably be more than qualified.

I just hope her past doesn’t come to hunt her because high school kids can be very mean but apparently their open to porn in Japan so she should be ok

I feel this is a good move for her. Despite her being a bit of a train wreck, people forget she’s fluent in multiple languages and is really highly intelligent. I hope it works for her!!
at
good for her. i will always be in support of her given the tough childhood she had and her struggles post wwe. xx

My favorite is Ava Rose and Lisa Ann ;D
Chyna was never one of them NOPE o_o
But I must say I was incredibly marking when Kurt Angle teamed with Chyna two years ago in TNA
Felt so good to see chyna again :)

I have nothing against Chyna but with her being an adult film star how is she meant to land a teaching job.

If she’s indeed moving to Japan she shouldn’t have a problem with her past coming back to haunt her and cost her jobs. Japan is nowhere near as prudish as America is.

This is the best news I’ve heard all year, I was scared drugs would take her out before she came to her senses. Still praying for her.
at
Great to see her get back on track. Best wishes!
at
Not really a fan of her any longer, she kinda went off the track a bit, but it does make me happy to see this and to know that she could very well be on her way to making something great out of the rest of her life.

Once again Chyna is doing what she wants to do to make herself happy. I never saw her porn career as bad thing. I watch porn so I can’t be a hypocrite about it lol. Glad she is getting herself more educated and wants to teach. I hope this brings her even more happiness.
at
see nothing like having every area of you enter’d and then having your eyeroll back in your skull to just know that … after this feeling is over and done with maybe I should teach the children a thing or two …
Well glory be to , the most high one for taking next to nothing – breathing life into and making it something else #look@himWORK.
Now lets hope and pray that Ms. Chyna stays on a route of uplifting female standards !!!
at
Very happy for her. :)
It seems it was her plan all along and did the movies not only to explore her sexuality which she couldn’t before, but to also gather enough money so she can do this move and go back to japan.
Back, because she wrestled there before so its not the first time she will be in their country and people from back then will probably also still remember her as the long haired blond Chyna/Joanie Laurel she was in the independant circuit. :)
