10 Things WWE Fans Need To Know About Scarlett Bordeaux

4. She Is A Prestigious Championship Winner

Scarlett Bordeax is one of those lucky enough to get a run with the highly prestigious DDT Ironman Heavymetalweight Championship, arguably the only comedy title in wrestling history that has actually worked. Some of wrestling’s biggest names have held the title, legends like Rey Mysterio, Asuka, Aja Kong and Kota Ibushi.

Of course, the title is best known for the non-humans that have managed to win it, along with the comical ways in which people have won and lost the thing. Scarlett climbed to the top of the mountain on 9 July 2016, when she defeated 43-time champion Joey Ryan to pick up the title. She didn’t leave with it, forfeiting the title to Rhino in exchange for the Man Beast’s autograph.

The DDT Ironman Heavymetalweight Championship is one of pro wrestling’s great triumphs. Anything that can be won by a Shinsuke Nakamura parody (Chinsuke Nakamura), a bus, a ladder, a beer can and the belt itself deserves applause.
