Papacita Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 How about Scott Hall? He got a title match against Bret Hart at Rumble 93 and never won a World Title to my knowledge. Edit: Fuck it!! Double Edit: No one said Mabel!! Yay me!
daileyxplanet Posted December 18, 2006 Report Posted December 18, 2006 Don't forget Mable, Ahmed Johnson and King Kong Bundy It's misspelled, but you still lose.
Just John Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 Ken Shamrock (IYH: DX) Shane McMahon (KOTR 2000, where whoever got the pin in the 6-man would be champ) Scott Steiner (Royal Rumble and NWO 03) <- WWE only Finlay (No Mercy 06)
Dandy Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 The original post asked about one-on-one Title matches. Everone posting this 6-man matches or handicap matches do not count for the question asked.
foleyfanforever88 Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 Ken Shamrock (IYH: DX) Shane McMahon (KOTR 2000, where whoever got the pin in the 6-man would be champ) Scott Steiner (Royal Rumble and NWO 03) <- WWE only Finlay (No Mercy 06) he said one-on-one title matches
Masked Man of Mystery Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 Ken Shamrock was the first NWA champion of the TNA era, if that counts for anything. Man, I wish he'd stayed in wrestling. Probably be a tad easier on the body, especially in TNA, and he'd get to win over people beside Kimo now and then
Just John Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 Ken Shamrock (IYH: DX) Shane McMahon (KOTR 2000, where whoever got the pin in the 6-man would be champ) Scott Steiner (Royal Rumble and NWO 03) <- WWE only Finlay (No Mercy 06) he said one-on-one title matches My bad. Shamrock and Steiner still stand if we're only counting WWE.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 A TON of people in the 1992 Royal Rumble, however, the specifity of this question doesn't allow for this answer.
Enigma Posted December 19, 2006 Report Posted December 19, 2006 I think Scott Hall and The British Bulldog win the award for being the only guys to get both a WWF and a WCW Title shot on PPV in one-on-one matches and never, ever win either title. WWF Royal Rumble 1993 - WWF Title: Bret Hart vs. Razor Ramon WCW Uncensored 1998 - WCW Title: Sting vs. Scott Hall WCW Slamboree 1993 - WCW Title: Vader vs. British Bulldog WWF In Your House October 1995 - WWF Title: Diesel vs. British Bulldog WWF In Your House December 1995 - WWF Title: Bret Hart vs. British Bulldog WWF In Your House: Beware of Dog (May 1996) - WWF Title: Shawn Michaels vs. British Bulldog WWF In Your House: Beware of Dog 2 (May 1996) - WWF Title: Shawn Michaels vs. British Bulldog WWF King of the Ring 1996 - WWF Title: Shawn Michaels vs. British Bulldog Even though it doesn't count, there's also the 3-way WCW title match from Superbrawl 2000 featuring Sid Vicious vs. Jeff Jarrett vs. Hall and Bulldog was involved in the '92 Royal Rumble for the title. Bulldog was also supposed to get a shot at Rick Rude's "WCW International Heavyweight Title" at Starrcade 1993 before he dipped out of the company.
Slickster Posted December 24, 2006 Report Posted December 24, 2006 Probably Test at the Royal Rumble.
Kahran Ramsus Posted December 24, 2006 Report Posted December 24, 2006 I think Scott Hall and The British Bulldog win the award for being the only guys to get both a WWF and a WCW Title shot on PPV in one-on-one matches and never, ever win either title. There is also Roddy Piper. WWF Title against Hulk Hogan at the Wrestling Classic and WCW Title against Hulk Hogan at Halloween Havoc 97.
Enigma Posted December 24, 2006 Report Posted December 24, 2006 There's also Piper vs. Hogan for the WCW Title from Superbrawl 1997, where Macho Man broke his alliance with Sting and officially joined the nWo.
Richard Posted December 24, 2006 Report Posted December 24, 2006 Barry Windham and Curt Hennig both had ppv shots.
Enigma Posted December 24, 2006 Report Posted December 24, 2006 Oh yes, forgot about those. Barry Windham was Col. Parker's mystery man for Ric Flair in the WCW Title match at Slamboree 1994. Curt Henning had a WCW Title shot against Goldberg at Bash at the Beach 1998.
Slickster Posted December 25, 2006 Report Posted December 25, 2006 Barry Windham won the NWA World title in 1993. Curt Hennig won the AWA World Title in 1988.
Richard Posted December 25, 2006 Report Posted December 25, 2006 Barry Windham won the NWA World title in 1993. Curt Hennig won the AWA World Title in 1988. Those don't count. Also Windham had a shot at the infamous '91 GAB.
Guest JaKyL25 Posted December 28, 2006 Report Posted December 28, 2006 Sabu actually got 2 WWE PPV world title shots--ONS (as previously mentioned) for the WHC and Summerslam for the ECW title. He's been ECW and NWA Champion, but never held a WWE-owned World Title. Cena got that one odd shot at Brock at Backlash '03 and never truly sniffed the title again until he won it in '05.
