One of Rochester's local celebrities will take her place in the WWE Hall of Fame. 

Joan Maurie Laurer — better known as Chyna — will be posthumously inducted into the Hall of Fame with group D-Generation X. 

Billed as the Ninth Wonder of the World, Chyna, along with Shawn Michaels, Triple-H and more, was wildly successful in the late ‘90s.

She was the first woman to win WWE's Intercontinental Championship.

The former Penfield resident died in 2016 after an accidental overdose.
