Erm...I’m not really sure what to say about this match in truth: it’s very rare to see a squash match (note the word rare, not completely unheard of) on the grandaddy of them all but this was about as close as you will get, with the exception of the 18 second debacle of Wrestlemania 28.

I just don’t really see what this match achieved for either woman. Sure, Ivory got in some early offence, including a title shot to the back of Chyna’s head upon her entrance, but that was it. A few stiff moves from Chyna, a stalled two-count so that she could get one last Gorilla Press onto the Champion before a cover for the win, after 2 minutes and 38 seconds.

It is hard to see the positives in this match as it did nothing for either woman: Chyna fought her last match for the company at Judgement Day in May of the same year, whilst Ivory never won the Championship again, despite being a fan favourite for the remainder of her tenure with the company.

Baffling booking, but the strength of the remainder of the card allowed us to push this match into the back of minds for the rest of the night. Something we are most thankful for.
