Before Nikki was seen as one of the biggest female stars in WWE, she also held one of the shortest title reigns with the Divas Championship, a reign that lasted just six days.
Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.
Nikki entered a feud with Divas Champion, Beth Phoenix, ahead of Extreme Rules back in 2012. After defeating "The Glamazon" in a non-title match, she was given her chance at the Championship the following week on Raw in a Lumberjill match.
Nikki won the Championship and was able to head into Extreme Rules six days later as the Champion to face Layla. But after twin magic failed, Layla lifted the Championship and Nikki and Brie decided to quit WWE a few days later.
