Every Foreign WWE Champion Ranked From Worst To Best
9. Andre The Giant
Andre The Giant is without a doubt one of the most memorable, well-loved, larger-than-life (literally) wrestlers in the history of the business. The lore and myth around the incredible Frenchman almost pales in comparison to the life and career he actually lived.
His 15-year undefeated streak is the stuff of legend - even if it was b*llocks - and his drawing power unparalleled in many parts of the world for years on end.
What is not so impressive for Andre Roussimoff is his one and only reign with the WWF Championship. It is the shortest reign in the title's long and illustrious history at just one minute and 48 seconds.
In a bizarre series of events at The Main Event, Andre ended Hulk Hogan's four-year reign thanks to some referee shenanigans that were being directed by the crafty Ted DiBiase, resulting in a three count for Andre despite Hogan having his shoulder up at one.
Andre would immediately hand the title over to DiBiase after the Million Dollar Man had paid him to do so, , effectively ending his reign in the process, less than two minutes after he had won it.
Despite his star power and incredible career, Andre was already struggling physically at the time he won the title for the first time, meaning he was never able to get his hands on the Championship again and have the proper reign that he deserved.
