I agree and disagree. Yes, Bret Hart has to be included as a factor in comparison, but you also have to factor in his age, and his fate in wrestling if he didn't have that concussion, but instead think of WCW going down and if Vince would've signed him back. I just dont Bret Hart could've made it as far as Trips is right now.

I don't think Bret would have made it as far as Triple H. Bret was unwilling to change with the times. He had the same bit through out his career, plus he simply didn't keep up on the politics of wrestling which is why he was forgotten about in WCW.

I agree, Bret would never have had as many championships i just ment that the amount of times champ doesnt really matter for being the greatest.

I was more of saying by the time Bret got kicked, his career was already over. I mean he could have wrestled longer and just tarnished his reputation by not being relevant.

Triple H is great.

Not the greatest ever, though.

Semi side question: But does anyone happen to know who has been world champion longest in their career (ie adding up each persons title reign for a combined total)?

Just the WWE history:
WWE Title
1. Bruno Sammartino - 2 reigns, 4,040 combined days
2. Hulk Hogan - 6 reigns, 2,185 days
3. Bob Backlund - 2 reigns, 2,138 days
4. Pedro Morales - 1 reign, 1,027 days
5. John Cena - 3 reigns, 793 days
6. Bret Hart - 5 reigns, 654 days
7. Steve Austin - 6 reigns, 530 days
8. Randy Savage - 2 reigns, 520 days
9. Triple H - 8 reigns, 473+ days (obviously increasing by the day)
10. Shawn Michaels - 3 reigns, 396 days

World Heavyweight Title (WWE Version)
1. Triple H - 5 reigns, 616 days
2. Batista - 4 reigns, 507 days
3. Edge - 4 reigns, 207+ days (and counting)
4. _______ - 1 reign, 154 days
5. Booker T - 1 reign, 126 days
6. Not Rey Mysterio - 1 reign, 112 days
T-7. Goldberg - 1 reign, 84 days
T-7. John Cena - 1 reign, 84 days
9. Kurt Angle - 1 reign, 82 days
10. CM Punk - 1 reign, 69 days

NWA World Heavyweight Title (only listing those with 1,000+ days)
1. Lou Thesz - 3 reigns, 3,749 days
2. Ric Flair - 10 reigns, 3,101 days
3. Harley Race - 8 reigns, 1,801 days
4. Dory Funk, Jr. - 1 reign, 1,563 days
5. Dan Severn - 2 reigns, 1,559 days
6. Gene Kiniski - 1 reign, 1,131 days
7. Jeff Jarrett - 6 reigns, 1,006 days

Hogan (6 reigns, 1,117 days) and Flair (7 reigns, 505 days) pretty much lap everyone in the WCW World Heavyweight history.

Wikipedia is your friend.

No, Triple H would not be the greatest of all time. Or at least, having the most world title reigns would not be what makes him as the greatest of all time if that's what he ends up being. Wrestling is about so much more than title reigns.

Figure it this way: are the Dudley Boys the greatest tag team ever?

TNA seems to think so, but they are no LOD/Road Warriors.

Triple H is definitely great, but it is not defined by his number of title reigns.

Shawn Michaels, for example, is considered the best ever by many. Many others would tie him with, or place him right behind, Ric Flair. He's only held the title 3 or 4 times, and not always for long periods of time.

Titles don't define greatness.

I supported what some people have said.

I also gave you a possible answer for your question as to how many World Titles Ric Flair has held.

Titles should be given to greatness, and not completely compose it.

All I know is if world titles define greatness, David Arquette is a greater wrestler than Ted Dibiase and Scott Hall and equally as great as Curt Hennig and Ricky Steamboat.
