Records within WWE are often changing due to the nature of the business. While some records are talked about a lot, such as around the Royal Rumble, others don't get mentioned as often. On top of that, when a wrestler who isn't always in the main event scene sets a record, many people are left surprised.
But if people aren't at the top level, a lot of fans get shocked about any potential record that they are capable of setting. There are many surprising wrestlers who have gained those types of achievements throughout their careers, which many people won't be able to believe.
10 Aliyah (The Fastest Win)
Aliyah is very new to the main roster, and she is not someone who has been pushed as a serious threat so far. From throwing up because of the moment to being shocked at getting her win, her gimmick has been rather goofy. Therefore, fans won't believe she has the record for the quickest victory in WWE history.
It's something she's pushing on television and is part of her storyline against Natalya. However, when fans think about fast victories, a lot of people would presume someone like Steve Austin would hold the record. But instead, it is Aliyah, who won after 3.17 seconds.
9 Triple H (Most WrestleMania Defeats)
At WrestleMania, the focus is often on the winning records that people put together, such as The Undertaker. There isn't a lot of concentration on who has lost the most matches on the biggest show of the year, and that's because most fans just presume it is a random mid-card talent.
However, that's not the case. Surprisingly, it is one of the biggest names in the history of the sport that boasts this record, which is one that Triple H won't be shouting about. He's been beaten 13 times at WrestleMania, which is a shock to say he has such a big reputation for burying talent.
8 Maria Kanellis (Pregnant Champion)
This is a record that a lot of fans won't even think exists for obvious reasons. The risk factor in wrestling while pregnant rules out getting into the ring to mix it up with another talent. Because of that, there has only been one person to win a title while actively pregnant, and that is Maria Kanellis.
It is a random record for her to have, but it's one she will likely cling onto for a long time. She was able to achieve that goal via the 24/7 Championship, which obviously doesn't require any wrestling depending on the situation. WWE booked her carefully, but it did allow her to get into the history books.
7 Pat Patterson (The Oldest Champion)
The 24/7 Championship has allowed for several odd records to be broken, and Pat Patterson was able to benefit from that. WWE has had many legends hold the title over the years, and the first-ever Intercontinental Champion is one of those people. However, when he won it, he broke a record.
Patterson officially became the oldest wrestler to ever hold a title within WWE. He was 78-years-old when he won this title, which is something a lot of people may not be aware of. It's a tough record to break as well, and the 24/7 Title might be the way that happens.
6 WALTER (The Longest Champion Of The Modern Era)
Breaking a record for the longest title reign of all time is something that may never happen again. This is why the modern era is now separated, with these records being linked back to when WWE started weekly television. During that time, there's been some long title runs for great talents.
However, out of all of them, WALTER has the longest run, which might shock a lot of people. The likes of Brock Lesnar, AJ Styles, and CM Punk all had very lengthy spells as champion. But WALTER was UK Champion for an impressive 870 days.
5 Liv Morgan (The Shortest Women's Rumble Appearance)
Liv Morgan boasts a record that she'd likely rather forget, which is that she has the shortest appearance in the history of the women's Royal Rumble. It's something that someone has to have, but considering that Morgan is one of the top stars in the division, it is surprising she has it.
However, in 2019, Morgan was dumped out of the ring after just eight seconds. At this point, it is unlikely that she will ever be eliminated that quickly again due to her popularity. However, the record is something that is stuck with her for now.
4 Ted DiBiase (The Longest Gap Between Title Runs)
Ted DiBiase had a historic wrestling career, achieving a lot throughout his time within the sport. He also happens to be a record holder within WWE for having the longest gap between championship victories. This is something he achieved after buying the 24/7 Championship to have a brief run with the title.
It put the gap between his title victories to a whopping 26 years, which is a remarkable length of time. This is something that will be hard to top and is a record that a lot of people won't even be aware of in the first place. Before winning the 24/7 Title, the last time DiBiase won gold in WWE was in June 1993. Money Inc. received their third reign as World Tag Team Champions, a reign which only lasted three days.
3 Seth Rollins (The Longest Raw Performance)
Monday Night Raw doesn't tend to have a lot of lengthy matches on the show anymore, and a 20-minute bout is considered exactly that nowadays. That is what makes this record so impressive. Seth Rollins has the longest continuous performance in the history of the red brand.
That's something he achieved on the February 19, 2018, episode of the show. He lasted one hour and five minutes in a gauntlet match, putting together a great effort. However, this isn't the type of record a lot of people are aware of.
2 Natalya (Most PPV Appearances For Any Female Wrestler)
While Natalya has been around WWE for a long time, a lot of people might be surprised that she has had the most PPV appearances. It is a shock because even though she has been on the roster for a while, Natalya hasn't always been one of the top stars. She doesn't often get featured in title matches or major storylines.
However, WWE has placed Natalya into a lot of matches over the years, which has allowed her to break this record. It's one that she will keep adding to until she chooses to retire, but there are other wrestlers who could end up catching her one day with this.
1 Jeff Jarrett (Most Years Between Rumble Appearances)
The Royal Rumble has a lot of records associated with it, many of which WWE will push and talk about a lot. However, this is one record that a lot of people do not know about. Surprise appearances often bring back legends who haven't been around for a while, and Jeff Jarrett's spot in the 2019 Rumble made history.
That's because he had the longest gap between Royal Rumble appearances. It was 20 years since the Hall of Famer was previously inside the classic match, which made this a major moment for him as a talent.
