WWE: 10 Things You Need To Know About New Divas Champion Paige
3. She's The 4th Youngest Champion In WWE History
Specifically and assuming my research is correct, at the age of 21 years and 267 days- at the time first won- Paige is the 4th youngest, overall, champion in WWE history. Only René Dupree (twice, with both the WWE Tag Team Title and the World Tag Team Title), Essa Rios (Light-Heavyweight Title) and Hornswoggle (yes, he did win the Cruiserweight Title once) won a main WWE Championship at a younger age that Paige. As such, the sky is really the limit for what she can do with regards to setting records in the WWE. By comparison, AJ Lee, her predecessor, was 26 before she first won the Divas Title. Brock Lesnar, the youngest WWE Champion in history, won aged 25 and Randy Orton, often touted as the "youngest world champion in history" was a ripe 24. Assuming Paige's intentions are to set new standards in WWE and add her name to the roster of truly great WWE Divas- one of whom entered the Hall of Fame a few days ago- all she has is time. All the time in the world.
Betting on being a brilliant brother to Bodhi since 2008 (-1 Asian Handicap). Find me @LiamJJohnson on Twitter where you might find some wonderful pearls of wisdom in a stout cocktail of profanity, football discussion and general musings. Or you might not. Depends how red my eyes are.
