Has anyone in WWE history held as many belts as The Miz currently has?
We've had double-champions before, I know that. But has anyone ever been responsible for three title belts in the history of the WWE? I'm trying to think and cannot come up with any.
|
That's a good question, I was wondering the same thing. And once I saw Punk get pinned, I knew it was gonna happen.
|
Angle held 3 titles in TNA not long ago and of course...

Kane was IC champion and sole owner of both tag belts

also..I remember at one point early 90's WCW the Steiners were lugging around a ton of belts that they won in Japan or elsewhere but I cant find a pic. |

I'm pretty sure The Hurricane was his tag partner, but then he defended and retained both belts alone in a TLC match.
I think Hurricane was out after that and he carried both tag belts for a bit. I could be wrong though. I'm sure someone can clarify |
Two man power trip held all the belts didn't they ?

So out of the loop here. What belts does Miz have even?
|
It's not any different than someone who has held a singles title and one half of the tag titles at the same time though.
Tons of guys have done that. The only difference in this case is the actual number of belts he physically posesses. It's just hardware though. Even though it's two sets of tag titles, they're "unified" and decided in one fall. Technically, it's one title. The US title could be carried around in the form of 13 title belts, but it wouldn't change the fact that it's one title decided in matches as one object. |
Miz is okay, its weird to me though I would've put money on Morrison being where the Miz is by now hes the better talker of the two and while Miz is making leaps and bounds in the ring Morrison Owns him skill-wise.
Not saying I dont like it I just didnt really see it turning out this way. |
If I am not mistaken I think Shawn Michaels held all of the major titles at one time.

It's a similar situation with the Undisputed title. Despite what many will claim, Jericho (and subsequently Triple H, if only for one night) was not both the WCW and WWF champion at that point. |
LOL HBK holding every belt. If you are just strickly talking holding a belt, then Ultimo Dragon had like 9 belts. lol. But that was WCW.
Didn't Dan Severn carry a ton of belts to the ring? |

Xero's right there. They were unified at Survivor Series 2001 in a Cage Match between The Hardyz and The Dudleyz.
|
I am not sure, but I seem to remember someone getting th Hardcore title for a little bit while having another title plus a tag title.

Miz making a run at the IC championship would make me happy.

He wasn't. It was one title.

Woah a Karen Angle picture.
The Tag belts have to count as 1 title, and 1 belt. Even though there are 2 belts it still counts as 1 belt. |
She is so hot.

True, but he didn't hold them all at the same time. He held the WWE (F) Championship and the European Title at the same time, while also being a former Intercontinental and Tag Team Champ. |

No one's held more belts than Miz, but nothing has ever held less of my attention than the Miz.

He only technically has two titles. Not a rare occurence.
|
Didn't RVD hold the IC, Euro, and Hardcore titles at the same time at one point?

I know this has been discussed to it fullest possibility but miz has 2 titles and 3 belts. So he's got the most belts anyone's ever held at once but draws with Angle, HBK, he who shall not be named etc.. for titles.
I'm just getting my post count up for 2011 tipsters. Never say that joesgonnakillyou isn't in it for the long haul! |

From that point on though, they were treated and defended as one unit. So I agree with that. HHH was definitely not, since he won it in one fall as one title. |
See, I always saw it as Jericho winning the World Championship then, when he won the WWF title, it immediately became the unified/WWF championship. Thus, he was World Champion then WWF champion. Otherwise you'd have to count it as three reigns, one for the World/WCW, one for the WWF and one for the Undisputed (which is technically the WWF championship).
It's undeniable he was World Champion, it becomes (ironically) disputed at whether you count him winning the WWF title as a reign away from the undisputed title. Though in terms of this, you're right. I wasn't counting him winning the title, though, just the reign itself. |

And yes, it does come down to the Tag Team Championship currently being represented by four belts instead of two. And you are exactly correct about your US Title analogy. But I'm not talking about the "number of titles." I am talking about the number of physical belts. Quote:
Now, you could make the arguement that this happened as soon as Jericho won the WWE Title. But does the WCW Title stop existing first, or does Jericho's reign as WWE Champion begin first? I like to think that by winning the WWE Championship, Chris Jericho THEN earned the right to infuse the WCW Title into the WWE Title. I don't think you consider them three reigns, however. The WWE Title just changed its name for a bit, while the WCW Title just ceased to remain active once Jericho won the WWE Title. The whole goal of that evening was to make one belt redundant because one man had won both the championships. The same goes for Carlito & Primo when they defeated John Morrison & The Miz at WrestleMania XXV. The WWE Tag Team Championship became redundant when Carlito & Primo won the World Tag Team Championship, but that is because they had won the World Tag Team Championship. Having both titles is the cause and unification is the effect. |
As for The Miz: It may sound like a slap in the face to Christian, but I think it would make for interesting TV if The Miz (or even Big Show) challenged Christian for the ECW Title just before the brand disappears, and they win. Miz or Big Show then become known as "The Last ECW Champion," which gives them something to brag about. If The Miz wins, then he holds four belts, a new physical record, as well as a record for most championships at one time. If Big Show does it, then Big Show is on even ground as The Miz, and you can perhaps even do Show-Miz facing off at WrestleMania for the US Title and ECW Title, so that after the PPV, one man is in possession of three championships.

No, Miz only holds two titles, being one-half of the Tag Team Champions and the United States Champion, but...
Yes, Miz is the first person in the history of WWE to ever obtain three belts at once, since the Tag Team Championship currently is four belts, with each champion possessing two belts. So, there's a difference. |

Wish RVD handn't gone and fucked that up right after it happened for him... |
Lets be honest. The unified tag belts are only really one pair of belts now. Been waiting for them to make new belts for a while. I don't think they've ever defended just one pair of belts from the unified championship, have they?
