NXT sensation Sol Ruca has made a landmark achievement in WWE by becoming the longest-reigning concurrent women’s double champion in the company’s history. Holding both the NXT Women’s North American Championship and the WWE Speed Women’s Championship simultaneously for over 100 days, Ruca surpassed previous record-holders including Bayley, Becky Lynch, Paige (Saraya), and Stephanie Vaquer[1].
Ruca captured the WWE Speed Women’s title from Candice LeRae at a taped WWE Speed event in April 2025, dethroning the inaugural champion[1]. Shortly after, she won the vacant NXT Women’s North American Championship at NXT Stand & Deliver in April, where she triumphed in a six-woman ladder match also featuring her frequent partner, Zaria[3]. This combination of titles places her in elite company—she is only the second Superstar to hold both an NXT title and a non-NXT WWE championship simultaneously, the first being Paige during her tenure on the main roster[1][3].
Her record-setting reign highlights her rapid ascent in WWE’s evolving women’s division. At 25 years old, Ruca has dazzled with high-risk moves like the top-rope Sol Snatcher, notably showcased during her successful title defense against Kelani Jordan at NXT Battleground 2025[2]. That match drew praise across social media and wrestling media outlets, with fans and analysts calling her one of the best performers in WWE[2]. As Fightful reported, Ruca’s performances have consistently impressed both in NXT and on the main roster, leading to speculation that a permanent promotion to SmackDown or Raw could be imminent, especially after her main roster debut in July 2025 amid the buildup to WWE Evolution 2[1][3].
A WWE insider told PWMania, “Sol Ruca’s combination of in-ring skill, charisma, and work ethic is something WWE has been excited about for a while. Holding these two belts simultaneously for over 100 days isn’t just a statistic—it reflects how much the company trusts her as a cornerstone of the women’s division going forward.”
This historic run reflects the changing landscape of WWE’s women’s championships, with new titles like the WWE Speed Women’s Championship adding an exciting dynamic for competitors and fans alike. Sol Ruca’s ability to become a dominant force on multiple fronts encapsulates the innovative spirit WWE looks to cultivate.
Her journey is also marked by strong alliances, particularly with Zaria, and memorable rivalries. Teaming with Zaria on the December 2024 episode of NXT began a partnership that led to significant victories and further title opportunities[3]. Despite setbacks, including an unsuccessful challenge for the Women’s United States Championship against Chelsea Green, Ruca continued to build momentum that culminated in her double championship feat[3].
As July 2025 progresses, WWE fans eagerly await what lies ahead for Ruca, with many considering her a future hall-of-famer. Her record-breaking reign as a women’s double champion not only cements her legacy but also raises the bar for what is possible in WWE’s women’s division.
In the evolving world of professional wrestling, Sol Ruca stands out as a shining example of rising talent translated into historic success, a beacon for others aiming to make their mark in the sport.
