'The Champ' isn't here quite as much as his catchphrase would have fans believe these days, but his in-ring contributions to Monday Night Raw have outstripped even his biggest live microphone crimes in over a decade as the show's undisputed kingpin.

"Baloney, fudge and mustard", "I never learned how to read" and scrawling "JBL Is Poopy" on a car may be the ingrained memories he'd rather fans forget, but at least he worked for the cause too.

Sift through anything from his celebrated United States Open Challenge run, just about anything he did with Cesaro, an exhaustive war with Shawn Michaels or the best match of many pearlers he had with CM Punk and his dedication to the craft will shine brighter than even his most garish t-shirt.
