3. Women’s and Divas Championship Reigns

Phoenix was one of the WWE Divas that transitioned from the Women’s to Divas Division during her time with the company. That gave her the opportunity to hold two Championships, which was the Women’s Championship and Divas Championship. She held the Women’s Championships on multiple occasions, and the Divas Championship once.

Perhaps this best represents the link between the old and new generation of women when it comes to Phoenix. With the Women’s Championship, Phoenix battled the likes of Mickie James, Candice Michelle and Melina. Her feud with James led to her first two reigns as Women’s Champion. She held the Championship three times before it was retired in 2010.

Even though she held the Divas Championship once, she had the fourth longest reign at 204 days. She was also the third woman to have held both the Women’s and Divas Championships after Michelle McCool and Melina. Phoenix would take talents such as Kelly Kelly, and Eve Torres to their limits during that period.
