All I can say is congrats to Nikki! While I'm not a big fan of hers, I am happy that she beat AJ's record. I mean Nikki got the push she got because of who she sleeps with, but to be fair she has greatly improved since becoming champion. They even had a big match type feel for her match last night (she should have at least won the match though if she was going to break the record).
But my hat is off to Nikki and I wish I had the GIF I saw on Twitter last night of her holding the belt up shaking her booty for all of you Nikki haters.

Nothing makes me cringe more than the word "haters."

Aj was only the longest divas champion because of WHO SHE SLEPT WITH.

Aj was only the longest divas champion because of WHO SHE SLEPT WITH. Or maybe because she was over...

Do people not forget WHY Nikki got the Title shot to begin with??
SummerSlam 2014. Nikki Bella turns on Brie to enable Stephanie McMahon to get the win. Stephanie pays Nikki back buy giving her WWE Divas Title matches. And with the help of Brie - who at the time was Nikki's servant (but the WWE wants us to forget that apparently) - Nikki beats AJ Lee to become WWE Divas Champion.
Nikki didn't get the title because of who she is sleeping with. If that was the case she would have gotten it years ago. And secondly, Nikki Bella did start the Divas Revolution. Total Divas is the divas revolution. Nikki, Brie and Eva Marie are the divas that matter to Vince, and if anyone thinks differently they are crazy.

I don't care about this record thing. It's the fact she's been champion so long that bugs me. For as long as she has been in the company, she remains mediocre as sh**. Now that they have actual women talent on the roster, get the belt off her.

I used to care about AJ's record but when Nikki broke it on Raw I found myself not caring one bit. In my mind there's only one woman who's a legitimate champion in the WWE right now and that's Bayley.

Gotta love how everyone assumes they know the inner workings of WWE. And they all seems to know why someone wins or loses. Must be nice knowing everything.

Honestly, I couldn't care less about who's Divas Champion until the belt actually means more than it does right now.

The "because who she's sleeping with" is so played out and insulting.

Nikki Bella isn't the champion because of who's she sleeps with or because they want to spite AJ Lee. She is simply the only option when it comes to the girls remaining. Look at the roster since Nikki won the title in November.
I assume, and the Bellas have stated, that the plan was for Nikki vs. Brie to continue. Brie should have taken the title off of her sister by the Royal Rumble but they changed course and Brie sided with her, taking her out of the equation to win the belt.
Paige is a good option, but has been insanely mediocre in 2015. Emma is also better in the ring than Nikki, but was unable to get over and has rightfully been sent back to NXT to fix things. Naomi isn't very good. That's it for contenders to Nikki. Now we finally have girls worthy of taking the belt but they've just come up and the "Divas Revolution" hasn't exactly taken off. Outside of purely wanting Nikki to lose, why should any fan care about seeing Charlotte win? What has Charlotte done to make anyone like her on the main roster unless you really miss Ric Flair?
Honestly, as a performer, Nikki is pretty good. She's improved in the ring and there are only really two things that bug me about her. 1) Her promos aren't very good, mainly due to how poor of an actress she is and 2) she seems to work the arm in matches but has no finisher that it leads to. It's like she works the arm for the sake of working a body part, with no real rhyme or reason.
There are much bigger problems with the Divas division than who the champion is.

Really, does the woman's division even matter? She could be Champion for another year and really, would it mean a thing? She barely defends it, she has no talent, the belt is used as an accessory at best - it just doesn't really matter, none of this revolution stuff does.

I couldn't possibly care any less about the women's division, but she obviously only held the title this long because Hunter and Vince are both two of the most egotistical and petty people on the planet. They figured what better way to stick it to Punk and AJ one last time than by having Cena's untalented girlfriend erase AJ from history and break her record? It's just silly and reminds you why "records" in wrestling are ultimately meaningless.

I don't absolutely hate that Nikki Bella has the longest reign as Diva's Champion. Not really a big fan of hers myself, but she does have her supporters. And now that she does hold the record, it makes the eventual win that much more important and could give the victor a rub.
That being said, the build has been poor to me, likely due to WWE's lack of vision. If having the longest reign was that important, why wasn't it the focus of the Diva's division for longer than the last three weeks? Sure, the timing didn't match up for a PPV, but we ended up getting the build and match on RAW anyway, in a much more rushed fashion. Why not have Summerslam have the all-important title match that put Nikki's reign in jeopardy.
That leads me to the match last night. Okay, maybe they didn't want to have the big blowoff on free tv and wanted to save it for their Network PPV. However, that finish could have been 18,000 times better than what they gave us last night. To do the exact Twin Magic finish we got in the Nikki Bella-Paige match at MITB, with a different result so WWE can have their cake (Nikki breaking the record) and eat it too (having another match that people will pay for at NOC), feels like such a cop out to me.
Like I said, whatever to Nikki Bella being the new record holder. Eventually Vince will call Eva Marie back up to the main roster, and then we'll have her be the longest reigning Diva's Champion.

Whatever happened to Natalya? She hit 30, so she's "over the hill"... I used to really enjoy her in-ring work, but it's been ages since I could take her seriously.
