10 Insane Wrestling Facts That Will Blow Your Mind

7. Jinder Mahal's WWE Championship Reign Was Longer Than All Of Edge's Combined

He may hold the title of being the most decorated star in the history of WWE, but it doesn't take much to see clearly that Edge's combined reigns as WWE Champion were actually dwarfed by one of the most divisive title runs in recent memory.

Despite never really setting the world on fire during his time holding the most prestigious prize in the company, Jinder Mahal reigned as your defending WWE Champion for a whopping 170 days when all was said and done. For comparison, The Rated R Superstar, even though he enjoyed four separate spells with the spinner title, only held onto the same prize for 139 days in total - with three of those runs only lasting 21 days each.

Sure, in general, those watching the era which saw Edge go toe-to-toe with the likes of John Cena, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Jeff Hardy, and Randy Orton will likely have fonder memories of the title being defended (unsuccessfully for the most part), but no one can ever take away the fact that the Modern Day Maharaja had possession of the strap for longer in the end.
