Talk:WWE Women's Championship (1956–2010)

message: Moolah never held the title for 28 years. She was briefly recognized as NWA Womens Champion around about 1956-1958. Then in 1983/83 the WWF wanted to create a Womens Title, and got the rights to get the title(and Moolah) out of mothballs as their own. The idea of a continuous championship reign is pure bs. 41.245.185.66 (talk) 13:31, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: May 17th edition of RAW, Jerry Lawler said that they're both the WWE Women's Champion after they both came down wearing championship belts. However, the SmackDown superstars page on wwe.com (as well as Michael Cole) says it's Layla's only. So, with WWE giving two different answers which is it officially? Layla? McCool? Or both? 161.184.176.114 (talk) 02:37, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Take it to WT:PW, this needs to be discussed by more.--WillC 04:31, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

text: As both have a copy of the belt--and per the comments during Raw--they're technically co-holders of the Women's Championship.98.154.85.43 (talk) 06:41, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

text: The site clearly lists the Women's Title history under the Unified Divas Championship. McCool never was Women's Champion so she has no reason to be listed. Layla's reign is clearly listed as still in existence since no end date has been omitted.--WillC 18:10, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Michelle McCool is the woman's champion NOT Layla. 

message: Based on wwe.com, this title is no longer continuing and the Divas Championship, which is now called the Unified Divas Championship, is continuing. The history of the "Unified Divas Championship" shows the Divas Championship history confirming that the Women's title is no longer here.
Someone needs to edit this and move it to the retired titles list for WWE.  
Reference: http://www.wwe.com/inside/titlehistory/divas/
http://www.wwe.com/inside/titlehistory/women/ (<- note this is NOT named the "Unified Divas Championship" nor does it actually recognize Michelle McCool as that champion, although is does show her picture on the top banner.)

replies: text: The title is not listed in the retired section of WWE.com. Instead the title is listed under Unified Divas Championship, right next to the Divas Title history. McCool is not listed because she never was Women's Champion, she was co-champion in storyline, so Layla is still champion. Technically McCool is Divas Champion while Layla is Women's Champion. By checking Layla's reign you will see there is no date added to show when it ended, meaning it is still going.--WillC 18:08, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

text: That makes a problem due to the title not being listed in the retired section. That probably means last champion so far.--WillC 21:41, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

text: There really shouldn't be any confusion all terms referring to Layla as the final champion are past tense meaning she is no longer champion. There are no indications that Layla is still the champion on the any of the roster pages. Third only Michelle has been credited with a title reign and only the Divas title page has been updated. Fourth, I know the following are my own thoughts but are somewhat logical: if this title is still an active belt then Layla would enter with it not a replica Divas title. I know the title hasn't been moved to the retired section but it isn't hard to see that it clearly is retired.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chemicalinxs (talk • contribs) 23:33, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Title Is Retired 

message: WWE officially retired the title on September 21 2010. Many Divas including Mickie james and Beth phoenix have shared their regrets regarding this move of the company. Th lat diva to hold the title is Layla.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.94.43.219 (talk) 09:27, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Retirement 

message: The title is retired, Michelle McCool is only listed as Divas Champion on wwe.com
http://www.wwe.com/inside/wwefeaturepage/features/mccoolhistory/womenschampions/ according to the pic of Layla it's retired.
It says "Layla was the last-ever Women's Champion."
Thats enough proof.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Amare135 (talk • contribs) 22:41, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Not exactly seeing as the links above (above section) show that the title has not been listed in the Retired section, and is instead listed under Unified Divas Championship with the Divas Title. This situation is just like the tag team titles, and until one of them is moved to the Retired section it can't be called retired. That phrase could be interpreted as "last champion" or "last champion so far".--WillC 04:13, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

text: The Women's Championship isn't retired. Technically, McCool is the Women's Champ. However, she only carries the Divas Championship belt with her. If you go to "Title History" on WWE.com, they don't list the Women's Championship under the "Retired Titles" section. -- CollisionCourse (talk) 21:34, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  It is retired 

message: In the article, it says: "Chyna is the only undefeated champion in WWE history as she retired during her first reign". Now, Layla never lost her WWE Women's Championship title, so that should mean that Chyna isn't the only undefeated champion, as Layla is also undefeated, since the title was technically retired to create the Unified Divas Championship.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.12.129.183 (talk) 18:01, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Only undefeated Champion? 

message: I noticed that the WWE championship and other wrestling titles have information on the championship belt design, the women's title design has changed alot within its entire run, this should be included on this page, it will be good to add more information to the page.

replies: text: I don't know if that's needed. Clearly the anon was editing in good faith under the mistaken understanding of the relationships between the three WWE titles for women. The reverts here and at the new title's article are sufficient. If they repeat, then it's better served by a note at the anon's talk page pointing them to the official title history showing it as a separate championship is better and more educational than a lock that could disrupt appropriate edits, such as the inevitable page move that seems to be garnering unanimous support at WT:PW. oknazevad (talk) 03:22, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

And the proposed title is crap, as it's was always the "WWE Women's Championship", and people are misinterpreting the WWE website, which leaves off the "WWE" from multiple titles, including the IC title.
