WWE 2K15: 10 Famous Wrestling Injustices You Should Put Right
7. Christian's Two Days On Top
It was a good day for many when Christian won the World Heavyweight Championship - fans had seen him make a name for himself through death defying TLC matches and toil away on the midcard for years, but the visage of Captain Charisma holding the strap triumphantly made it all worth it. But the joyride would be a quick one, as Christian would drop the World Heavyweight Championship to Randy Orton just two days later at the SmackDown tapings following Extreme Rules 2011. The two would have a fantastic rivalry in the months that following - one that saw numerous outstanding matches - and while Christian regained the gold, he did so by disqualification and kept it for a month before dropping it back to Orton. Despite being terrific in the ring and underrated on the mic, Christian was never going to be 'the guy,' but his talent and considerable connection with the crowd warranted more time with the world title than he got.
