There was something rather unsavoury about the injury story WWE had told in order to try and create some suspension of disbelief for Ivory chances against Chyna.

At the Royal Rumble, the 'Ninth Wonder Of The World' had dominated their clash before hitting the deck and clutching her neck, but she was in no such peril here.

Grinning widely to mask the apparent disdain she had for what she perceived as a demotion, Chyna was at least permitted a squash here as a compromise. It was her last WrestleMania, but at least she left the 'Grandest Stage' with a smile.
