Top 5 WWE Superstars who have never won a main roster titleĀ
'Titles mean nothing' - Several personalities involved in professional wrestling have continuously asserted. While the physical title doesn't mean that you are a true Champion, it does reflect management's faith in a wrestler, and the gates at wrestling events are supposed to be an indication of whether the person holding the belt is a must-watch for the fans or not.
Ever since the 2000s, WWE has had a number of Championships on its roster, with the title number exploding during the Invasion storyline. While it isn't easy to win the WWE/Universal title, several mid-carders have had multiple runs with the likes of the Intercontinental/United States and Tag Team titles.
This list takes a look at top 5 WWE stars who have never held a single title in the company. Wrestlers like Sting and Ultimo Dragon who had short runs with the company are not considered.
#5 Sami Zayn
There is time still for Sami Zayn to correct this, but it is surprising that the former 'El Generico' has never won a championship on the main roster nearly four years since his debut. While he was NXT Champion, he was never deemed worthy to even win a secondary title on RAW or SmackDown.
Zayn has competed for the United States and Intercontinental titles on the main show and had a compelling feud with Kevin Owens. But the fact that he was booked as a gullible babyface during his early run meant that he always came up short in title matches.
A heel turn alongside Kevin Owens could have been capped off with a Tag team title run, but that never came about either. Sami could be back on the main roster post WrestleMania, and hopefully, he can exorcise the demons.
