10 Worst WWE Championship Reigns Of The 1990s

10. The Undertaker (November - December 1991)

In many ways, The Undertaker's first WWE Championship victory was perfect. 

It happened almost exactly a year on from his debut, and he won the title from none other than Hulk Hogan. Alas, larger forces were at play here, ones that would deny The Deadman a lengthy run with the gold. 

Taker's win was tainted by a massive assist from Ric Flair. This was all part of WWE's plan to make Tuesdays a new pay-per-view night with the introduction of This Tuesday in Texas, which was closed out by Hogan getting his rematch against The Deadman. 

After a whole bunch of nonsense, The Hulkster won the title back, ending The Phenom's reign after a pitiful six days. 

With the power of hindsight, it is mad that a performer as important as Undertaker had his first world title reign cut so short as part of such an experiment that ultimately failed so spectacularly. Barely anybody attended or bought the show, so WWE quickly abandoned their plan to conquer Tuesday nights. 

As for Mean Mark, he would have to wait another five years to get his spooky grey gloves on the top prize again.
