Unfortunately, this was a foreseeable event. Doesn't make it any less tragic. Also a lot of people are blaming HHH and the WWE because of how they treated her (HHH cheating on her with Steph, WWE for firing her around the time WCW went under-meaning she had nowhere else to go), not putting her in the HoF because of her porn and drug habit), but the fact is Chyna made her own decisions and was not forced into that lifestyle. HHH and WWE are not coupable for her death in any way.
On an unrelated note, this is a pretty interesting interview excerpt with John Cena:

Either that or a drug overdose because those are the two possibilites that make the most sense considering in what state of mind Chyna was during the past decade, like the horrendous Youshoot she did with Kayfabe Commentaries, her calling in to a radio show where Sean Waltman was just appearing and going completely nuts or her crazy videos where she rambles incoherently about something or "twerks" (as if anybody ever wanted to see that)

I like this description of professional wrestling from Xavier Woods.

They did find empty perscript bottles on the scene i read. Its a shame because she was groundbreaking in the wwe. of course in her prime she could take on the entire divas division and win lol
I think it's going to be just as unimaginative as you'd expect. AJ and Reigns will battle for a while, maybe even shake hands occasionally. The Gallows and Anderson will interfere and at first AJ will act confused then join in on a beatdown of Reigns ending the match in a DQ.
Now THAT sounds more like the WWE Creative I love to hate.

My prediction for Payback: Bullet Club will interfere in the AJ/Roman match but will turn on AJ & side with Roman for a heel turn. Book it!
OK now I've changed my mind. After watching that last "backstage" interview with AJ, Gallows and Anderson I think you might be on to something.
That's one of the predicitons. Another is Finn Balor (the original leader of the Bullet Club whom AJ replaced) will be called to the main roster and has been orchestrating this whole thing to take Styles out and reclaim his rightful place.

That scenario makes the most sense IMO.
I watch New Japan Wrestling on AXS TV so I'm familiar with the whole Bullet Club scene. And "Prince Devitt" as he was then known makes a great heel so I can see him joining back up with the other Bullet Club members to screw AJ Styles since AJ is pretty over as a face. Plus Devitt/Balor just dropped the NXT title so he's obviously being called up.

Wow, that was just a guess on my part as I have never seen NPW. That's just a feeling I got when Roman started this whole "I'm THE guy" stuff. Slight heel turn. Then Gallows and Anderson seemed (to me at least) to be "up to something" (look how they clapped after AJ's match with Sheamus).
I guess the Finn angle makes a lot of sense. But I am still thinking a heel turn for Reigns. If he does the heat will be even more, what I like to call "Honky Heat".
Then that will lead to an eventual Seth Rollins return as a face.
I remember as a teen I absolutely HATED Honky. He first came in as a babyface and I could not stand the Elvis gimmick. I booed him from day one. Then he turned heel.
I was so pissed when he won the Intercontinental Title from Steamboat then he continued to win by cheating or downright "luck". No one had that much heat, he was so hated. Years later I started to like Honky Tonk Man and thought he was one of the best heels ever.
