List of WWE Divas Champions
The World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Divas Championship is a professional wrestling championship in World Wrestling Entertainment. It is competed for by WWE Divas only and is exclusive to the Raw brand. The championship was created by WWE in 2008, and was introduced in storyline by then SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero as an alternative to the Women's Championship which at the time was being defended on Raw.
Title reigns are determined either by professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers, involved in pre-existing scripted feuds, plots and storylines or are awarded the title due to scripted circumstances. Wrestlers are portrayed as either villains or fan favorites as they follow a series of tension-building events, which culminate into a wrestling match or series of matches for the championship.
Michelle McCool became the inaugural champion on July 20, 2008 when she defeated Natalya (Nattie Neidhart) at The Great American Bash. The current champion is Maryse. To date, two wrestlers have held the championship.
