This has been a great year for Bayley, as she has not only been Smackdown Women’s champion since October 11, 2019, but she was also WWE Women’s tag team champion as well. She has held the Smackdown women’s title longer than anyone in both a single reign (368 days) and combined days as champion (508 days). She will soon pass Becky Lynch’s first reign as the RAW Women’s champion (373 days) and if she doesn’t lose to Sasha Banks at Hell in a Cell, she will certainly pass the Fabulous Moolah’s third reign as the WWE Women’s Champion (380 days).
