A former WWE Superstar affiliated with AEW is currently making history with her lengthy title reign. A report has emerged about whether she is aiming to shatter Roman Reigns' record.

Athena is arguably one of the longest-reigning champions in recent history. She is now the longest-reigning ROH Women's World Champion by a significant margin, and no other champion has matched her tenure. She recently hit the milestone of 1000 days as champion.

Roman Reigns' reign as the WWE Universal Champion lasted 1316 days, but on a recent Fightful Select's Q&A, it was noted that Reigns' record has no bearing on the Forever Champion's booking. It was recently reported that Athena will be taking about five to six weeks off from both ROH and AEW for an undisclosed reason.

A major AEW star is interested in Athena's title

At ROH Death Before Dishonor, Athena successfully defended her title against Mina Shirakawa. A few days before this, she came up short when she challenged Toni Storm for the AEW Women's World Championship.

After a busy few weeks, it seems like Athena is already looking to her potential challengers. She has named Mercedes Moné as someone she wants to put her title on the line against. The CEO responded to this on social media and is willing to oblige, since she is hunting for more belts to add to her collection.

The last time these two women faced off was during the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, which was said to be one of the best women's matches in recent history. They could run it back again, but this time with a bigger prize on the line.

"Good, [be]cause that’s a title I really want 🤑," Mone wrote.

Check out the post here.

Throughout her record-breaking reign, Athena has put on several incredible title defenses. Once she returns from her break, it remains to be seen what comes next for her, as she'll have challengers from both AEW and ROH.
