10 Shortest WWE World Championship Title Reigns
4. John Cena
Length of WWE Championship Reign: 3:35
John Cena is easily one of the most successful champions in professional wrestling history. But not all of his 16 world championships have been memorable runs.
Cena’s sixth WWE Championship victory came at Elimination Chamber 2010 where he outlasted five other wrestlers to capture the title. But before he could even celebrate, Vince McMahon came out and demanded that the chamber be lifted because there was going to be one more match for the world title.
Enter Batista. The Animal decimated what was left of Cena to capture his second WWE Championship and end Cena’s run less than 4 minutes after he won the strap.
But again, don’t feel bad for Cena; he’d win the title back five weeks later and go on to hold it a record 13 times total.
