WWE Cruiserweight Champions: Ranked From Worst To Best

16. Jacqueline

It was about this time - the spring of 2004 - when folks really started to clock on that WWE perhaps didn't take the cruiserweights or the Cruiserweight Title quite so seriously.

Exposing the lack of depth on the Smackdown roster at the time, WWE diva Jacqueline answered an open challenge and captured the gold from Chavo Guerrero on the May 6th episode of the show. Amazingly, she successfully defended the title against Jamie Noble and Chavito on Smackdown brand house shows over the following week.

She dropped the belt back to Guerrero ten days after she won it, at Judgement Day, in a match where Chavo's arm was tied behind his back. That turned out to be her last match for the company, as they released her a couple of weeks later. Creative didn't have anything for her, apparently.

What, you mean they didn't have any more winning ideas like this one? The short reign was pointless and rumour at the time was that it was a token gesture by management to appease a group of veterans (including Bob Holly and Billy Gunn) who felt they were being overlooked by newer, more inexperienced talent.

Worst. Cruiserweight Champion. Ever.
