Every WWE Championship And The Superstar That Defined It
47. NXT Championship (2017-2022) - Adam Cole
Adam Cole became the longest-reigning NXT Champion in the black-and-gold brand's history, stewarding the show with some micro-bangers during the difficult transition to USA Network in 2019.
Extending The Undisputed Era's relevancy thanks to his leadership as NXT's top star, his eventual loss to Keith Lee was integral to the success of the panicked Great American Bash counter-programming double header, and though he stayed with the company another year before making the switch to AEW, neither the show nor the man himself felt as focused with him no longer in the top spot.
