History

[edit]
First champion, Britani Knight

On 8 April 2011, 21 wrestlers entered a two days tournament to crown the first Pro-Wrestling: EVE champion, which was eventually won by Britani Knight, after she defeated Nikki Storm in the finals to become the inaugural champion.[1] On 20 May 2017, the current EVE Champion Rhia O'Reilly vacated the title after breaking both her leg and ankle. On 21 May, at Babes with Power, Sammii Jayne won the vacant championship after defeating Kay Lee Ray in a no disqualification match in the finals of a 16-woman tournament.[2]

On 5 May 2018, EVE held their biggest event to date, Wrestle Queendom, when during the main event, Charlie Morgan defeated Jayne to win the EVE Championship.[3]

Reigns

[edit]

As of 9 November 2024, there have been a total of 21 reigns shared between 15 wrestlers and one vacancy. Britani Knight was the inaugural champion, and also the youngest champion at 18 years old, while Emi Sakura is the oldest at 36 years old. Nikki Storm and Rhia O'Reilly hold the record of most reigns at three times. O'Reilly's third reign is the longest at 789 days, while Storm's first reign alongside Viper lasted less than a day.
