10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Jan 1)

9. Charlotte€™s Reign Is The 10th Longest In Divas Title History

WWE are exploring the opportunity to turn Charlotte heel. Previously, the reigning WWE Divas Champion was portrayed as an emotional babyface, which is something the company hoped fans would rally behind. Unfortunately, most people seemed to like Paige - the woman Charlotte was feuding with, and also the heel in the feud - a lot more. Examining the length of Charlotte's reign as Divas Champion reveals a fascinating fact. She has held the title since defeating Nikki Bella at the Night Of Champions pay-per-view in September. At the moment, this means she has held the belt for just over 100 days, and she is catching up on other women who can say the same. By next week, Charlotte will have eclipsed Kelly Kelly's reign with the title in 2011. Should she hold the title for another few weeks, Charlotte will overtake the likes of Eve Torres also. As of right now, Charlotte is the 10th longest reigning champion, and she has a while to go before topping Nikki Bella's 301 day tenure with the gold. In a few weeks, Charlotte will be the 8th longest reigning Diva to hold the belt.
