10 Worst Simultaneous WWE Heavyweight Champions

10. Kofi Kingston (WWE) & Seth Rollins (Universal) - 2019

Kofi Kingston and Seth Rollins are, as per the aforementioned forum posts, "dog sh*t". The same poster notes that "Seeing Seth and Kofi as champions is making WWE feel more like a high school indie company than ever before. Both "champions" are horrifying bad. Awful in every single way imaginable."

The take is immediately countered with a number of individually horrific titleholders (some of whom are still to come in this list), but most opposing views fail to address the original criticisms of the 'Dreadlocked Dynamo' and the 'Beastslayer'.

"High school indie company" is the sort of rhetoric spouted about the wrestling world outside WWE by those that don't watch it. A vision of the industry's subsect as curated by the market leader to undermine potential threats to the bottom line, no matter how small. But how much does it apply to Kofi and Seth?

Both are drenched in WWE's branding and build, discounting everything they'd done before signing with the organisation. Booked into corners they've bravely fought their way out of over long and arduous runs on the main roster, the title wins were arguably more important than the reigns, especially when early indications suggest they'll always be in the shadow of the Roman Reigns/Brock Lesnar superhero/villain archetype Vince McMahon will never abandon.

The jury's out, but the charge regretably isn't as baseless as it may first appear.
