5 times pro wrestling champions had to vacate their title.

#7. Naomi

Naomi's story is one of hard work and perseverance in the face of many naysayers.

When she started, many thought she wasn't 'classically pretty' enough to be a Diva. Her athletic ability and wrestling skills were top notch, but Vince McMahon thought she should be paired with the more photogenic Cameron as the Funkadactyls, a women's tag team in a promotion with no women's tag team titles.

Naomi's participation in Total Divas, a reality show, helped garner her new fans. As she continued to polish her skills, she slowly worked her way from being a valet to a singles wrestling star. When she defeated Alexa Bliss for the Smackdown women's championship, it felt like her career had finally reached its full potential.

Unfortunately, injury would force her to relinquish the belt to Daniel Bryan less than a week later. A sad speed bump on the road to superstardom for the reality show and pro wrestling star.
