Becky Lynch Becomes Longest Reigning WWE Raw Women’s Champion
Becky Lynch sets a new mark.
As of Tuesday, Nov. 26, Becky Lynch is now recognized as the longest-reigning WWE Raw Women’s Champion. Lynch’s reign is recognized by WWE as lasting 232 days, topping the 231-day mark set by former champion Ronda Rousey. Lynch defeated Rousey in a triple threat match in the main event of WWE WrestleMania 35 to win both the Raw and SmackDown Women’s Titles. Charlotte Flair was also part of the match.
Lynch has successfully defended the Raw Women’s Title six times on television during her reign. She defeated Lacey Evans at Money in the Bank and Stomping Grounds, teamed with Seth Rollins to defeat Evans and Baron Corbin in a Winner Take All match at Extreme Rules, submitted Natalya at SummerSlam, and picked up a DQ victory over Sasha Banks at Clash Of Champions before defeating Banks in the rematch at Hell in a Cell.
At WWE Survivor Series, Lynch took part in a triple threat match taking on SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley and NXT Women’s Champion Shayna Baszler. Baszler was victorious in the non-title bout, but it was ‘The Man’ who stood tall to close the show.
