Being a 24/7 Champion is the toughest job as you are not safe even in front of a corporate employee. Everyone is after the 24/7 title that has been held by 29 names since being first introduced by the Hardcore legend Mick Foley. Interestingly, the WWE underdog R-Truth did the unthinkable this past Monday night on WWE RAW as he avenged his loss to Samir Singh in a backstage segment to become a record 22-time WWE 24/7 Champion.
Triple H took to Twitter the very next day to announce that a behind-the-scenes WWE corporate employee Mike, has made history by becoming the new and the first-ever member from WWE HQ to hold the 24/7 Championship by defeating R-Truth.
I’ve always said @WWE’s greatest asset is our talent. In-ring, production and the various departments at HQ. At today’s Town Hall, Mike made history as the FIRST employee to hold the 24/7 Championship and get #ThePoint. pic.twitter.com/k27Y8O4Lx3

The former 24/7 champion and one-half of the Singh Brothers responded to the tweet requesting the WWE corporate employee and new champ to not remove the 'Bollywood' letters inscribed on the 24/7 title.
Whatever you do, PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE ‘BOLLYWOOD’ OFF OUR TITLE, MIKE! #Bollywood247
