Joanie "Chyna" Laurer's manager Anthony Anzaldo has revealed that he is planning to finish the documentary about Chyna and her attempt at a comeback dubbed "The Reconstruction of Chyna", which was already in the works before her death.
According to Cage Side Seats, Chyna and Anzaldo were in the process of filming the crowd-funded documentary when she died. In fact, her manager told the publication that cameras were present when the wrestler's body was found.
The famous WWE star's body was found on April 21 at her Redondo Beach home. This was after a friend discovered that the 45-year-old was not responding to phone calls and opted to call the police.
Even though "The Reconstruction of Chyna" is under plans of getting finished, there are no plans to exhibit the moment that her manager discovered she was dead. However, the manager himself hopes that he will fetch data from both Chyna's autopsy and the planned donation of her brain for research.
As reports have it, Chyna's brain will be donated to Dr. Bennet Omalu to contribute to a research on the effects of concussions on chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). The condition, which is caused by repeated blows to the head, can only be diagnosed after the death of a victim through examination of brain tissue.
Although many people have shown concern over the donation, Anzaldo was obstinate that he and Chyna were not planning to file any lawsuits against WWE, but wished to be a part of brain science advancement. The tests carried on Chyna's brain will take a while before the public can receive any information.
In the meantime, her manager has disclosed that the deceased wrestler was taking legally prescribed drugs, one of which was Ambien. In an interview with E-News, he said that the drugs were aimed at getting her off of what she was taking originally.
Initially, Chyna used to take alcohol in large amounts, drink for fun, and binge. She would take alcohol when the medications were not enough, something that her manager thinks would have been solved through a 90-day rehab program.
For now, Anzaldo hopes that the documentary will serve as a commemoration for the departed wrestler. "The Reconstruction of Chyna," which director Erik Engra disclosed to Wrestle Zone could get renamed as "The Deconstruction of Chyna," is presently slated for a 2017 release.
