Celeste Bonin has won her first title since her WWE tenure ended years ago.
The former WWE superstar, who wrestled for the company as Kaitlin, won the Slamforce Africa Women's Championship in the promotion's first event on October 27. Bonin won a triple threat against Black Widow and Katie Forbes at the show to win the title.
Bonin signed a developmental contract with WWE in 2010 and would eventually make it to Raw and SmackDown, wrestling there for several years until her contract from the company was terminated in 2014. Since then, Bonin has only wrestled a handful of times, including the 2018 Mae Young Classic where she advanced all the way to the second round before being eliminated by Mia Yim.
The show also saw PJ Black return to his home country of South Africa and defeat Rob Van Dam to win the company's inaugural world championship.
