In a dramatic twist, the WWE 24/7 Championship, believed to be retired, was instead vacated following Nikki Cross’s symbolic disposal of the title in a trash can on November 7, 2022. This act echoed iconic moments in wrestling history, such as Madusa's infamous trashing of the WWF Women's Championship on WCW Monday Nitro in 1995. While many assumed the title was retired, it was actually left vacant, awaiting a new claimant.


On July 31, 2024, the WWE 24/7 Championship found its unexpected new owner. A mysterious and completely unknown wrestler named "Xander" emerged from the shadows to claim the vacated title. Unlike traditional contenders, Xander is not a member of the WWE roster and has no known background in professional wrestling. His identity and history remain a complete mystery, adding an unprecedented level of intrigue and speculation.


Xander’s sudden appearance has sent shockwaves through the wrestling community. Described as an utter unknown, he has no recorded matches, affiliations, or prior appearances in any wrestling promotion. His out-of-nowhere claim to the 24/7 Championship has left fans and insiders alike buzzing with curiosity and excitement.


The 24/7 Championship, introduced by Mick Foley in May 2019, was designed to inject spontaneity and excitement into WWE programming. The title’s unique rule allows it to be defended anytime and anywhere, provided a referee is present. Despite its initial mixed reception, the championship became popular due to the comedic and unpredictable segments it generated, with R-Truth being one of its most memorable holders.


R-Truth's numerous and often hilarious title reigns helped elevate the 24/7 Championship, making it a beloved part of WWE despite its unconventional nature. His antics brought a unique charm to the title, contributing to its high viewership and fan engagement.


With Xander now holding the 24/7 Championship, the WWE Universe is eager to see how this new chapter unfolds. Will Xander adhere to the spontaneous defense tradition, or will he introduce a new dynamic to the title? The mystery surrounding his identity and intentions only heightens the anticipation.


For now, Xander remains the enigmatic face of the 24/7 Championship, symbolizing the unpredictable and thrilling essence of WWE.
