The 24/7 title has changed hands a couple of times so far this weekend. R-Truth brought the title with him onto a Fox College Football broadcast yesterday when analyst Rob Stone decided to take an opportunity to become a WWE champion himself.
WWE posted the most recent 24/7 title changes to their YouTube channel:
Truth appeared to slip or was tripped from behind, allowing Stone to pin him and win the title.

Stone was still happy enough with his brief title run to post the following to Twitter, however:
Updated 24/7 Championship Statistics
The WWE 24/7 title has changed hands a total of 38 times since its inception this spring. Only four people have held the title for longer than a day, however:
- R-Truth (13x) 61 combined days as champion.
- Drake Maverick (4x) 16 combined days as champion.
- Elias (4x current) 13+ days as champion
- Maria Kanellis (1x) 7 combined days as champion.
If Elias can make it through Wednesday as champion, he’ll pass Drake Maverick as the second most successful 24/7 title champion in history.
