I also forgot to mention (as several of you have said) Orlando Jordan.
How many times has he defended the belt? 2? 3? Give it to someone who can do better with it. Ironically, that's about 98% of the Smackdown roster. |

Definitely Orlando Jordan. And to have him beat Benoit with no build-up for his own character was just awful.
It's bad enough that Benoit has been dropped down to midlevel status, but to have him lose to a guy whose credibility as US Champion is based solely on the guys he defends against, there's something wrong. |

I was actually hoping that Orlando would beat Benoit first time round, then maybe they could build up a mini feud that would give OJ a little credibility and then, in turn, Benoit's eventual victory would mean more.
The first part came off, but then wait, OJ and Benoit don't start the fussin and the feudin. What the fuck? What was the point of the match at GAB if they weren't going to build on it. Now Benoit wrestles in the midcard with no meaning and without a belt and OJ still carries around the gold. Wasssup wit' dat? |

Hogan was the first thing in my mind. OJ is right behind him.

Agreed on most of these. I'd put Hulk Hogan '02 over The Big Show though... not only was THAT face turn ridiculous (the nWo existed for all of a month on Raw after all that crap Vince said about them) but the fact that HHH dropped the belt and put on a "sad" act about it that no one really bought just sealed one of the darkest periods in WWE history. and HHH is the World Title W.O.A.T. Orton is #2 though. He really should have never gone face. As a heel, Orton is infinitely better. Yeah, he kept Benoit from jobbing to HHH but...in retrospect, I wish he would have just dropped it back to HHH or something. |

Sad thing is I don't remember Show being World Champ, nor Hurricane/Kane being tag champs, nor Kenzo/Dupre being champs.
I remember Show being a kick ass US Champ though. He like never defended it, but he still kept that thing strong. They should really start putting these US and IC belts on former champs like Benoit, Guerrero, Angle, HBK etc... Makes the things look a bit stronger. |

Cena. They're trying to build him as another Austin and it just isn't working. To me it doesn't seem like he's worth anything. The other talents on RAW completely overshadow him IMO

Orton was the worst World Champ. Had he stayed heel and feuded with a face HHH it would've been way better.
JBL was the worst WWE champ. He was entertaining, but he couldn't draw and made the title look like shit for almost an entire year. |

Breaking the rule: Chris Jericho in 2001. Such a horrible championship run, and I don't blame any of it on Jericho himself, but on the way he was booked. Every championship match he was in ended in a DQ or a cheap finish. He was never given a true title defense, and his title victory was even done with help. Such a fuck up.
In the past 3 years, I'm going to say John Cena. I haven't given a shit less about Cena since he won the belt. Like I give a fuck about his new "spinner" belt, or dumping animal intestines on top of JBL. Like I give a fuck about his flirtations with the idiot backstage interviewer on RAW. Like I give a flying fuck about John Cena, the rapper who doesn't rap anymore, and all of his white goody pop-pop antics. Fuck John Cena. At least JBL ripped people apart on the mic. That was entertaining. I could sit through his 20 minute ass fucks on PPV as long as he ripped people for 20 minutes every Thursday night on Smackdown. I even enjoyed Randy Orton for his short duration as champion, as I was still an Orton mark after Summerslam. But seriously, fuck John Cena and his white fish rap bullshit. I hope Chris Jericho wins the title at Summerslam. |

Orton's title reign could have been much better if he stayed heel and kicked HHH out of Evolution, and HHH being the top face for a bit. But, I'm a big fan of Orton so I enjoyed him being champ, but his character was pretty bad for that little face run he had.
But, as the worst champ in the past 3 years, I'd have to say JBL. Like some others have said, his mic skills are gold, but his in-ring work is poor. |

HHH - i hated his reign when he lost the title and got it back at the elimination chamber...just all seemed pointless to me (altho it did set up the whole batista-HHH thing i suppose

oh, and Cena did do good at Vengeance - but who wouldn't do good in a triple threat match with Jericho and Christian? you'd have to be someone like Lita to botch that combination. |
