5 Superstars that held multiple titles at the same time
Wrestling is a massively popular form of entertainment that attracts fans for different reasons. Whether it is due to the wacky narratives on display, or the car crash action that keeps you on the edge of your seat, the fact of the matter is that wrestling can never really bore you.
The reason why wrestling will never be boring is due to the fact that there is a point to the sport, and that is the goal of becoming a champion. If there were one thing that every wrestling fan wished they could have, it would be the chance to call themselves champion.
There is genuinely something special about those gold plated titles that our favorite heels and faces carry around, as those belts are the main reason why millions of people tune into WWE TV every single week. So, today, let's go through some of the wrestlers that had the chance to hold more than one of these shiny gold championships at the same time.
#5 Rob Van Dam
The height of Rob Van Dam's career was undoubtedly from 2005 to 2007, when he was one of the hottest prospects in wrestling. RVD was a top priority for WWE at the time, as his 2006 Money in the Bank win signified that the company had big things planned for the ECW Original.
And big things followed, as Van Dam went on to win the WWE Title by defeating John Cena at the now infamous ECW One Night Stand pay-per-view in 2006.
While Paul Heyman (who was the GM of ECW at the time) wanted the WWE Title to become the new ECW World Championship, Van Dam refused the idea, as he stated that he wanted to defend the WWE Title and newly reinstated ECW World Title separately. He also wanted the WWE Championship because "this one spins".
That made RVD the only wrestler in WWE history to hold both the WWE and ECW World Titles simultaneously. However, RVD had his time at the top cut short, as WWE suspended him for 30 days after he was found guilty for possessing drugs. This was a shame given how red hot RVD was at the time.
