Ezekiel Jackson - ECW Champion - 5154+ days

Gilbert- Light Heavyweight Championship, 448 Days

Fun Fact: Gillberg's single reign was longer than every single one of Goldberg's Championship reigns in both WCW and Combined!

Gunther has basically performed mouth to mouth, resuscitating the IC Title, and then rehabilitating it to be the best fighter in the history of the world.

[TheBlingice]

Gunther's reign is indeed amazing, but too bad you forgot the NxT UK title reign from that guy named Walter, he was amazing tho

[Veggieman]

Honorable mention to Dean Ambrose’s US title reign with the Shield, which fell just short of a full year, and I believe is the longest single reign since the title came to WWE.

To give you an idea of just how silent the crowd was when Sammartino finally dropped the belt for the first time: I recall reading an interview where he stated that after Koloff pinned him, and the match was officially over, the former champ thought to himself, "Oh god, I've gone deaf." Imagine the shock the audience felt when Lesnar broke The Streak at WrestleMania 30, and multiply it. *That* was how quiet the stadium was.

I don't think I've ever seen a year long title run that mostly consisted of the Champ getting hit in the balls over and over again, but AJ managed to open my eyes to that specific level of disappointment.

[donazard]

I think Cena's reign should be higher. He had countless great matches against Umaga, HBK, The Fatal 4-Way at Backlash, against Lashley and Orton and even gave Khali two decent matches.

I'd love to see a list of who had the most title defences during a single title run. I think there could be some real surprises, and would definitely highlight the work horses who've held the belts.

I’ve seen all from 1980-Now what a life of wrestling

[mrmotown]

That was hilarious when Adam made that sound at 30:56! It almost sounded like he was doing a voice impersonation of someone passing gas.

[TheDukeofMadness]

I knew Gunter/Walter would be the business after seeing that NXT matches he had with Ilja Dragunov.

No Gillberg love? WWF Light Heavyweight champion, 445 days.

[moopert]

We all know Bruno is the best. And his WWWF title reign is by far the best too. To stay on top for that long and draw like he did is something that could never happen again.

[SuperSonicShadow]

Gillberg’s reign is so legendary they can’t even talk about it.

[jasonwhite]

Where’s Gillberg’s Light Heavyweight Championship reign at 445 days?

[yomamasofat]

Actually it was one week after Summer Slam 2020 when Riman won the Universal title at Payback

[PincheBrayan]

Women: he’s probably thinking about other girls.

Boys: Thinking about the year + title reigns “Hells Yeah”

[jasonjimerson]

Sad fact... Ivan Koloff is STILL not in the WWE HoF.

*CM Punk’s 434 WWE title run has to be my favorite World championship of all time. Even though it really sucks that the company never treated him like the top guy because they were more focused on Cena and The Rock, he did the best he could to make that run feel important. On top of that, it never felt like it got boring because it always offered something new and something fresh to keep me intrigued with it. It was great the way he initially started off as a face and slowly doing a great job of turning him heel with also having a justifiable reason to. The less said about how his reign ended, the better because it was just so underwhelming.*
