Playboy November 2000

COVER STORY Chyna is professional wrestling's most deadly femme fatale. She's doing TV shows, an autobiography and her own fitness videos. Photographer Arny Freytag steps into the ring and survives a nude workout—hers. Our Rabbit, who's perfected his own moves, sparkles. FEATURES 80 THE BIKER WARS When Hell's Angel Sonny Barger got busted, everyone figured the days of outlaw violence were over. That was before the explosion of car bombs drowned out the throaty dug of tailpipes on quiet Midwestern streets. A tale of blood and revenge. BY JAMES R.
