A dismal record of just one win in six successive final appearances weighed heavily on the Red Roses, but at Allianz Stadium they rose to the occasion magnificently in front of a record crowd for a women's game of 81,885.
It registered a record-extending 33rd successive victory and, crucially, England saved their best performance of the tournament for when it mattered most.
When asked if the Red Rose are the greatest team in women's rugby, captain Aldcroft said: "It definitely feels like that.
"We have had 33 wins in a row and we have finally put the cherry on top of the cake by winning the World Cup.
"It feels great. Honestly, it's unbelievable. It is literally what dreams are made of.
