Chyna, former wrestling champion, died from a mix of prescription pills, the NY Daily News reports.

Joanie Laurer, reportedly unintentionally overdosed on Valium and Ambien, her manager claims.

“She was inappropriately taking her legally prescribed medication over the course of two to three weeks,” Anzaldo, her manager, said. “On Sunday night, her body had enough.”

The 45-year-old was allegedly dead for days before Anzaldo found her body on April 21. Her brain will be turned over to the the doctor played by Will Smith in “Concussion,” for signs of CTE.

RIP, Chyna.
