10 WWE Champions Who Never Lost Their Titles

Seth Rollins' turn on his Shield brethren in 2014 facilitated his shift into an archetypal chickensh*t heel.

With Kane by his side, Rollins begged, borrowed and stole his way to a Money in the Bank contract, which he would later use to memorably cash in on a broken Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 31.

Using Kane as a heater and any number of foreign objects and regulation at his disposal (most famously, Jon Stewart at Summerslam), the Architect was seven months into his first reign as WWE world heavyweight champion in 2015, when he fatefully tore his ACL, MCL and medial meniscus at a live event in Dublin.

Requiring immediate surgery, Rollins was unable to even relinquish his title personally and instead, his old pal Reigns won a tournament to be crowned champion for the first time - before losing it to Sheamus the same night.

Rollins would finally return in May of 2016 to challenge and beat Reigns for a second run as champion - before losing it to Dean Ambrose the same night.
