8 Wrestling Title Reigns That Officially Never Happened
5. King Mabel - King Of The Ring Championship Winner?
I'm sure some seasoned fans are reading this one and wondering what on earth I'm talking about. Yes, there was a King of The Ring championship belt, and Mabel was in possession of it. The belt had conflicting reports on who commissioned the creation of the title, some saying the World Wrestling Federation had plans for the strap, with others saying the late King Mabel, later known as Viscera and Big Daddy V, had the title made himself. The title belt had the familiar King of The Ring logo on it, along with the World Wrestling Federation company name engraved in it. Although photos have come to light of the title over the past several years, the title belt was never seen on WWE TV, and was in Mabel's possession until the time of his passing.
