The Worst WWF/E Champion of all Time

Just had a quick look at the history of the WWF/Es championship and it got me thinking... who is the worst guy to have ever held the coveted belt ?

We start of with Buddy Rodgers and then we see names like Bruno Sammartino, Andre the Giant, Hogan, Savage, Taker, Hart, Michaels, Nash, Austin, Rock, Foley, HHH, Angle, Guererro ........... The Miz

Make no mistake about it - the decision to give this guy the belt is the worst decision in the history of it's existance.

Are there any Miz fans out there that object to this or do you all pretty much agree.

Regards

Metro

Daniel Bryan was doing fantastic about 18 months ago. Then WWE squashed him at Mania and then put him with Kane who unfortunately falls into the Randy Orton section of 'I don't care about you'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Funnily now looking back i can see exactly what they were trying to accomplish at WM28 (couldn't make head or tails of it at the time) - they just made the mistake of not realising their backwards attitude towards their own title flipped the script on the surprise squash maneuver. Bryan should've pull off the surprise squash on Sheamus only for the match to be restarted on a technicality leading into Sheamus's own squash.

Kane & Bryan together initially was a god send. I wasn't waxing lyrical about them myself, but i loved that they made the tag team division relevant again for a spell. And i especially admire how WWE organised the break up, ducking the lazy option of having them feud against each other. And as someone who does care for Orton, that was an additional bonus for me

Jericho vs. Bryan for the World Heavyweight Title is the obvious feud right now, it's staring the E in the face like Jericho/Punk did in 2012. Now Jericho is slowly losing momentum and relevance, it makes a heel turn more attainable for a feud between them to really spark into life once a catalyst is found to bring them together.

The early years of Orton were very promising. Evolution was probably the greatest springboard for any superstar...ever.

Then he had his dad at ringside and the legend killer status.

Now he's just generic.

I really hope the MitB win gives him the boost of confidence to step his game up

Don't dignify him with a response, don't you reward him

The List is endless my worst rey mysterio great small wrestler but you couldn't suspend your belief that much that a midget could beat genuine heavyweights week in week out made a mockery of the title. Jbl , cena very poor wrestlers with very limited ability I gave up on the wwe after these clowns and now only watch wrestlemania

To be fair, many consider Rey to be the greatest Luche Libre of all time

The only aspect of Mysterio's 2006 push i couldn't invest in was winning the Rumble from drawing #2 - everything else just about worked. Should've only been a 1 time champion though

"...you couldn't suspend your belief that much that a midget could beat genuine heavyweights..."

I had to contain myself from uncontrollable laughter at that!
