Wrestlers With The Most World Titles (Across All Major Federations)
18. Brock Lesnar (9)
5 WWE Championships
3 Universal Championships
1 IWGP Heavyweight Championship
When John Cena semi-officially stepped down as the face of the WWE at SummerSlam 2013, who became their next big thing for the years to come? The equivalent of a Hulk Hogan, a Bret Hart, a Steve Austin, the one *big* star in the company? Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Daniel Bryan? Nope, it was Brock Lesnar.
From his ending of the streak in 2014 to his recent Royal Rumble 2020 throwing-wrestlers-over-the-top-rope tutorial, WWE have presented Brock as their ace, the true star (and ticket-seller) of the second part of the 2010s. His first run already earned Brock three WWE Championships and a WrestleMania main event, but his second run as a part-timer makes all that sound cheap. From 2012 to this day, Brock Lesnar won three Universal Championships, two WWE Championships, main-evented WrestleMania three times and was generally written as the ultimate end boss of the company.
End bosses are meant to be eventually defeated and done away with by the hero, but after so many false alarms, one grows cynical regarding WWE ever pulling the trigger and having someone getting us rid of Lesnar once and for all. Drew seems to have vanquished for now, but mark our words: he'll be back.
