Every WWE WrestleMania Women's Match - Ranked From Worst To Best

8. Chyna Vs Ivory (WrestleMania 17)

Though a condescending squash, the inoffensive WrestleMania 17 destruction of Women's Champion Ivory by a returning Chyna was the right payoff to a long-standing storyline between the pair.

It represented something slightly more sinister underneath, as 'The Ninth Wonder Of The World' stubbornly accepted what she considered a hefty demotion to the female division under the terms that she was to completely dominate it.

Resonating through her entire act, she grinned and laughed her way through the merciless beating on the Right To Censor representative.

To her credit, Ivory was excellent at selling her fear and trepidation before the contest, which was built from an ugly angle in their first match at the Royal Rumble where Chyna had to be stretchered out with recurring neck problems following an RTC spike piledriver.

Ivory jumped her larger foe from behind to start the match, but her advantage lasted barely a minute as the former Intercontinental Champion took over with brutal clotheslines, a high powerbomb and press slam for the easy victory.
