#12 WWE Million Dollar Championship

WWE reintroduced the Million Dollar Championship this year, putting it up for grabs in a ladder match between LA Knight and Cameron Grimes. At NXT TakeOver: In Your House 2021, Knight bested Grimes to become the fifth man to ever hold the title. Knight is also the oldest to ever wear it at 38 years of age.

Who was the youngest? Well, that would be the son of the Million Dollar Man himself, Ted Dibiase Jr. The former Legacy member broke away from Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes in 2010, and would be awarded the title by his father Ted Dibiase the very same year.


#11 WWE NXT North American Championship

Very few championships have been brought out the way WWE introduced the NXT North American Championship to the world. A six-man ladder match boasting some of the greatest talents on the brand at the time, it was awarded five stars by Dave Meltzer himself.

Adam Cole would best EC3, Killian Dain, Lars Sullivan, Velveteen Dream, and Ricochet in the match. Of course, two of those other competitors would end up with the gold around their waist in less than a year's time. Ricochet took the title off of Cole at NXT TakeOver: New Orleans before dropping it to Johnny Gargano at NXT TakeOver: Phoenix.

The youngest WWE Superstar to hold the NXT North American Championship so far is Velveteen Dream. The Vainglorious One captured the title back in 2019 by beating Johnny Gargano on an episode of NXT.


#10 WWE NXT Women's Championship

Much like every title in NXT UK, the first-ever NXT Women's Champion is also the youngest to ever hold the title. It all adds up, as she's from the UK herself. Paige captured the title after winning an eight-woman tournament.

In the finals, Paige defeated Emma. Nearly a year after winning the title, she appeared on RAW after WrestleMania 30 to defeat AJ Lee for the Divas Championship. She'd be forced to relinquish the title on the next episode of NXT. Though they took away her title, WWE's going to have a hard time taking Paige's name out of the history books.

The Anti-Diva was 20 when she won the gold, and I doubt anyone is going to come close to that anytime soon.
