Who have been double champions?

[Guest Askewniverse]

Didn't the CW Tags and World Tags get unified on the last show for WCW? thus making...Chris Benoit the NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT WORLD CRUISERWEIGHT TAG TEAM CHAMPION.

No. The two tag titles were never unified.

 

On the final episode of Nitro (the last WCW show which you referred to), Chuck Palumbo and Sean O'Haire retained the WCW Tag Titles over Lance Storm & Mike Awesome, while the Filthy Animals (Rey & Kidman) won the Cruiserweight Tag Titles from Kid Romeo & Elix Skipper.

didn't MVC hold the WCW/IWGP/US TAG all at once?

I know Gordy and Williams had the WCW and NWA tag belts but I'm not sure if they had any belts in Japan at the same time.

[Lil' Bitch 0]

*cough*HHH never held both at the same time*cough*

 

Doesn't matter, he won the other belt. There's no other way around it.

 

 

 

Oh yeah, forgot to mention Edge - Intercontinental and US Champion

[TheBigSwigg 0]

How have we gone this long without mentioning Ultimo Dragon and his 10 (I can't remember if it was ten or more) titles at once? Sheesh.

[tbondrage99 0]

Lance Storm held several titles at once.

Yeah Lance Storm held the WCW U.S. Title, Hardcore Title and Crusierweight title all at once. He renamed them all and gave Elix Skipper the Crusierweight title and Carl Oulette the hardcore title.

Notice that when someone is just given a title they have a crap run with it.

 

Mark Henry given the Eruo title

Midean given the Euro title

Oulette given the WCW Hardcore title

HHH given the World title

Kanyon (who I think is great) being given the US title

 

And I don't remember Skipper's Cruiser run being anything special.

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

The Rock held the WCW World Title and either the WCW or WWE tag straps with Jericho I believe.

What about Al Snow being given the Hardcore Title by British Bulldog.

 

Or, in a way, The Rock being "Given" the Intercontinental title by Steve Austin?

The hardcore title was bullocks to begin with. But Rocky had a good run.

I always thought he had nine:

 

J*Crown:

IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title

NWA Jr. Heavyweight Title

WAR International Jr. Heavyweight Title

British Commonwealth Jr. Heavyweight Title

NWA Welterweight Title

UWA Light Heavyweight Title

WWA Jr. Light Heavyweight Title

WWF Light Heavyweight Title

 

Then he beat Dean Malenko for the WCW Cruiserweight Title. Was there a tenth?

[Papacita 0]

I haven't seen it listed yet, but Jericho held the Hardcore and Tag Team belts BRIEFLY in 01 when he beat Show (I think) for the belt, then lost it to Rhyno immediately afterwards.

 

Also, 2 Cold Scorpio and the Sandman in 95 ECW. Scorp had the TV, won the tag belts for he and Sandman, then Sandman went on to win the World.

While this isn't exactly old school, AJ Styles was both the NWA World Champion and the RoH tag team champion.

They never held the US tag ... but the Steiners held all three at the same time in 91.

You know, now that I think about it, didn't that indirectly lead to Kennel from Hell???

[Guest The Notorious CRD]

While this isn't exactly old school, AJ Styles was both the NWA World Champion and the RoH tag team champion.

He also held the X Division and NWA Tag Team titles simultaneously. His partner was, I believe, Jerry Lynn.

[ChrisMWaters 0]

Bumping this thread up.

 

A more recent Double Champion:

 

Rob Van Dam

 

Held both the WWE and ECW Titles.

[Guest jackie fargo]

Hulk Hogan held the WWF world title and the Japanese World title at the same time for over a year-

 

He may be the only man of the last 30 or so years to hold two legitimate World titles-not including when the AWA and the UWF were folding and merged with other orgnizations in which Jerry Lawler won.

And which Japanese world title was this? Hogan never held the IWGP title or Triple Crown.

 

Kojima held both the IWGP and Triple Crown just last year. I'd say that counts as holding two legitimate world titles.

 

Keiji Muto and Taiyo Kea held both the IWGP Tag titles and AJPW double tag titles at the same time in 2001.

[Bruce Blank 0]

Didn't Hogan win the IWGP tournament one year and that's often said to be the same as Hogan holding the IWGP title for a year.

[World's Worst Man 0]

Yea, he won the first IWGP tournament, which pre-dated the IWGP heavyweight title by 4 years. It's a common misconception that Hogan was the first IWGP heavyweight champion, but the IWGP was only a tournament before the regular championship title was introduced in 1987.

Kenta Kobashi held the GHC heavyweight and tag titles (with Tamon Honda) at the same time.

 

Marufuji had the Jr. tag belts and Hardcore openweight belt too.

Lance Storm was WCW:

 

July 18, 2000 - US Heavyweight Championship from a tourny done on Nitro he beat Bagwell, Douglas, Mike Awesome in the finals

July 24, 2000 - Hardcore Champion beating Vito

July 31, 2000 - Cruiserweight Champion beating Chavo

 

Lance Storm put Canadian flag stickers on all the belts and renamed them Canadian Heavyweight Championship, Sasquashwon Heavyweight International Title, 100 kilos and under Championship.

[FroGG_NeaL 0]

When Storm first came to WCW, won all those belts, started Team Canada and cut his "If I could be serious for a moment.." promos he was fucking awesome. One of my favorite things from that era of WCW.

[razazteca 0]

"It's not his fault that he was the best worker in the company" , "Its not his fault that politics killed the company" , "Its not his fault that everybody has stupid gimmicks" , Lance Storm was awesome back then. Not as great as his classic promo on Shane Douglas from ECW but better than the boring gimmick he was given in WWF.

 

 

Saskatchewan perhaps?

Nope, I was thinking of the Canadaian Bigfoot.

[JST 0]

Nope, I was thinking of the Canadaian Bigfoot.

 

Cute. But the title actually was named after the canadian province.

Lance Storm in WCW:

 

His stable, aside from Awesome, who got lazy in WCW at times, was terrible.

 

Storm was a solid worker. WCW lacked a lot of these.

 

Storm was a terrible mic-worker. He appeared to be average in WCW.

 

I hate to say this, because I think Storm's a really good worker, but his 2000-01 run is very overrated just because he was the proverbial hot new fish in a pond filled with crap.

Didn't Vader hold a world championship at one point in three or four countries at once. Germany, Japan, USA, and England maybe. Something along those lines.
