As in, in solo competition she's a face?
But when aligned with men, she's a heel?

She's still a heel when solo, but Nia cancels that out. Speaking more generally, I'd say the closer analogies for her are either a female Roman (being heavily emphasised in this current storyline, from Jey calling her the new Tribal Chief to her segment with Heyman last night), or seeing her/Dom as a gender-flipped HHH/Stephanie.

When Chyna was a heel with DX or the Corporation, I remember her staying heel when she was wrestling solo at the same time. It might be that it's more that she got more pops as a solo worker because she was more of a "cool heel" the crowds appreciated.
Chyna also had an outright face turn when she feuded with Jeff Jarrett for the IC Championship. This was also when she was working mostly solo as it was around the time she and Trips split up as a couple.

Rhea and Chyna are/were different characters.

Late 1999 WWF is one of the most confusing periods storyline wise ever.

Chyna was still paired with HHH as a heel while she was feuding with Jarrett as a babyface. On the RAW before she won the title they had the bizarre booking of blending the two when she teamed with HHH to face Austin and good ol’ JR. So she’s beating up defenceless babyface announcer JR, and Jarrett interferes and attacks her with a toaster, and he’s the heel but he saves the babyface but he hits a woman with a weapon but she’s paired up with mega heel HHH but she’s also an equality fighter…but…but… |

So Rhea is taking the IC title from Gunther? Then she and Gunther become co-champions after a double pin. |

So Rhea is taking the IC title from Gunther? Rhea being the end game to Roman Reigns would be something. Roman doesn't agree with the merger. So in his last match in WWE, he randomly decides to put over Rhea as Undisputed Universal Champion. |

I wonder how good Chyna would be if she was just coming up now.

When she took the briefcase from Damien I genuinely and unironically wanted her to cash in on Seth. Actually think she could pull it off and people would be into it.

Honestly would have just done Austin/Jarrett with Austin stunning Jarrett whose trying to cooperate and Triple H to win. It reminds me of the lead up to Money in the Bank 2011 where the New Nexus was still a thing and just a few weeks prior were still with CM Punk. You'd have segments where "This Fire Burns" would play and either its CM Punk or Mason Ryan and Michael McGuillicuty. Even at the PPV under Punk's name was "New Nexus" even though they hadn't been shown together in the lead up and never mentioned together again. |

Late 1999 WWF is one of the most confusing periods storyline wise ever. A summary of 1999 WWF booking. By the time we got to early January 2000, The Big Show had had at least 4 face/heel turns since his debut in February 1999. |
