arquette.

Honorable mention goes to John Cena's 9th title win. They hold a one night tournament for the vacant title (Punk won the belt and left with tit), Rey Mysterio wins. A fresh John Cena comes out and beats Rey for the title he just won.
That was the most bullshyt move by a babyface since hogan eliminated sid in rumble


...but its cena...so i didnt add him...its bad writing but he was already a multiple time champ. At least he had a match unlike trips.

I voted Garvin simply because later he would be jobber status in WWF can't believe he won that title at a house show no less when Flair was on fire. Which also brings me to

Honorable Mention: Diesel beating Backlund in 8 seconds at a MSG house show soon after winning it from Bret. It wasn't a why but a wtf, in 8 seconds. I remember reading The Slammer in the Daily News the morning after it happened

:ohhh:

:blessed:

We gotta see video of this tell me there's video of this

I voted Garvin as well. That booking decision along with Dusty spending helped to kill Crockett off. Plus I can't count Vince and Arquette because they were non-wrestlers who got their reigns to pop a rating and create buzz.

IMO Arquette is the worst and Russo is second and it's not even close. Vince probably shouldn't have had the title either given its prestige at the time but he's not as egregious as those two.

Jinder is a trash champion but I can't say he's worse than those three.
