NXT Women’s Champion Asuka became the longest reigning champion in history as the new year kicked off, according to WWE announcer Tom Phillips. Well… sort of. As of today, January 2nd, Asuka stands at 276 days, which according to WWE is enough to pass up Paige’s inaugural title run.

Here’s where it gets a little tricky. The match where Paige actually won the title was recorded a full month before it finally made air, which according to the vast majority of wrestling historians would put her title reign at 308 days. Big promotions tend to pick and choose if they want to measure reigns by match date or air date depending on what’s more convenient for them at the time. Given Paige’s somewhat controversial status with the company over the last few months, it makes a measure of sense for them to try and make that switch sooner.

This really only becomes a problem if they do end up taking the title from Asuka before she hits 308 days, as it will end up with WWE saying one person is the longest reigning champion, while the history book say another is.

we did it, haters stay mad

She will be at 302 by San Antonio and if she makes it out champion then she will have it regardless.

People tend to forget Charlotte's reign was 309 days but it spanned two championships. She won the Diva's title but her Women's title win at WM 32 basically continued that streak of being a champion.

More like they don't have any legit women for her to face and actually have a run with a title. Plus her on NXT=$$$.

she's booked strongly cause she's piff in the ring, she got classics under her belt with Emma, Nia, Bayley, and even got a good match outta Dana

she beat numerous women who have already been called up including the current SD women's champ and the previous one :wow:

it ain't easy being legit
