Paid Members tiger_rick Posted January 16 Paid Members Posted January 16 Who didn't hold a belt in a major promotion despite being there for years or at the right time? Inspired by Gangrel, who despite being in the WWF for most of the Attitude Era, was so far down the order, he couldn't even get a run with the hardcore title! A belt that was held by jobbers, women, old men an on-screen hooker and even, scraping the bottom of the barrel, Tommy F'N Dreamer. Surely you're not beating that? Quote
AshC Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Yeah, you could have easily seen him as Hardcore, Tag Team or European champion. Jake never got one in WWF or WCW, but would have felt weird with a belt, his character. Quote

Paid Members gmoney Posted January 16 Paid Members Posted January 16 Vader got diddly squat aside from a Slammy during his WWF run. Though really I suppose he was only there a couple of years. I felt a lot longer. Quote
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted January 16 Paid Members Posted January 16 Hacksaw Jim Duggan WWF/E 1987-93 Won a Rumble but no titles. 2005-2009 no titles. Then a short run in 2012 with no titles. Quote
Infinity Land Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Trying to think of someone more modern: Chris Masters. Quote

Amazing that he didn't but he held titles in Mid South, Stampede and Georgia so definitely wasn't a no belt. Was Smokey Mountain champ too, I think, but that doesn't really count. 57 minutes ago, gmoney said: Vader got diddly squat aside from a Slammy during his WWF run.

Big surprise that he didn't get so much as a tag belt in WWF tho. 29 minutes ago, Lion_of_the_Midlands said: Hacksaw Jim Duggan WWF/E 1987-93 Won a Rumble but no titles. 2005-2009 no titles.

Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted January 16 Paid Members Posted January 16 Good thread idea! I was just watching ROH and seeing Dark Order made me realise those guys have been in AEW from the start and have never had a title. Obviiusly Brodie Lee had hs TNT title run but I'm talking about the core guys, Uno, John Silver, Alex Reynolds and Grayson. You'd have thought they would've at least had a run with the ROH 6-man titles at the very least, but diddly squat. They were some of the most over guys on the roster at one point too! Quote

Challenged Big Show & Kane in a losing effort at WM22. Only tag title he won with Carlito happened a few years ago in Qatar. Quote
Paid Members BomberPat Posted January 16 Paid Members Posted January 16 Jimmy Snuka and Tatanka were two who were around on and off forever, both had big pushes and were featured stars, had multiple stints with the company, and not a belt between them. Quote
Infinity Land Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Might be a good one. Jimmy Yang doesn't even have a titles tab on cagematch. That means no titles on the indies either. According to wikipedia he won a few tournaments in AJPW and that's it. Quote
AshC Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Berzerker didn't get one and must be one of the only guys booked and advertised for a WrestleMania to not get on one. I guess he couldn't have won a belt because of his finisher, as he'd keep winning by count-out. Quote
