#3 Chyna Vs. Ivory

2001 saw Chyna transition from wrestling men to, for the first time, joining WWE’s women’s division. The storyline building to this transition saw Chyna run afoul of the Right to Censor heel faction, culminating in the group kayfabe injuring The Ninth Wonder of the World’s neck.

In the follow-up, Chyna tried to fight back, and looked to dominate Right to Censor’s Women’s Champion at the Royal Rumble, only for Chyna’s neck to give out and for her to collapse, allowing Ivory to pick up the pinfall.

A rematch at WrestleMania 17 carried with it questions as to whether Chyna’s neck would give out again, or if she really would give Ivory and her running buddies their proper comeuppance. The result? Chyna not only won but did so in dominant fashion, completely overpowering Ivory before finishing her off with a press slam and a nonchalant pin. Chyna looked to be future of the division and did reign for a few months before leaving WWE.
