If a nuclear weapon was detonated at the bottom of the sea (deepest point) what would happen?

The Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench is the deepest point in Earth's oceans. The bottom there is 10,924 meters (35,840 feet) below sea level and therefor at a pressure of nearly 2000bar.  Even if the bomb detonation was higher pressure than would a steam bubble be generated or would it remain as superheated water and just dissipate?  If a steam bubble was generated would the shear mass of water surrounding the detonation point condense it?
