10 Times Wrestling Championships Were Vacated

[@619Slipk]

4:36 - " *FIRST* official retirement"... That's such a wrestling thing to say.

[@ericbushee]

Bryan's victory in the "Silverdome" was magical.

[@justinbonds2002]

DAMN RIGHT BROTHER😂

[@Jamessmith-xk3fh]

That's right Hogan lol

[@mycahjofficial]

*The biggest sin of the WWE has ever committed was retiring the Big Gold Belt*

[@undertakernumberone1]

what about Retiring the WInged Eagle or the Undisputed Belts?

[@fernandoreyes680]

Retiring the divas title 😖

Well that's a fine coincidence for Drew's covid-19 positive test. Christ

[@jonathanpanetta]

Just terrible news. I hope he won’t have to. He will miss the royal rumble but oh well. Brock Lesnar was champ and didn’t show up for months.

[@ellisbud222]

@@jonathanpanetta not true, Drew will likely be cleared for the Rumble (unless he gets severely sick, which I truly hope doesn’t happen)

[@j.h.g2001]

I don’t think he’ll have to, he’ll just miss a few weeks

[@SG5002.]

I literally learnt the news from this comment. Fuck man, I love Drew :(

[@getpumped87]

@@jonathanpanetta Assuming he doesn't have complications or long last effects (Nick Jackson said his conditioning took a huge hit) I don't think this would drastically change anything

[@Sherwinthomas15]

I love how Edge’s title is the thumbnail. The amount of times he had to vacate his title 😂

[@alexgoddard5778]

We all cry when a well deserved champion vacate the championship for the sake of injuries. Wish Bryan would have had a long run with the gold in 2014. He was the peak in 2014 WWE

[@footballstats9127]

he was going to lose to lesnar at summerslam

[@thesimp8158]

Fun fact edge also vacated the world champion in 2007

[@themurc6391]

Me reading the title: “Only 10...?”

[@brianammons6787]

Ah, the original Spartacus from Spartacus: Blood and Sand. I absolutely loved that series and was shaken when Andy passed away. The man was only 40 and could have done some amazing things with more time. Thanks for another fun list.

[@johndonald9239]

All the gold all the power I gonna live forever Vacant, 2017

[@VorpalBender]

This list pleases the legend that is Vacant.

[@gbrooks2]

Wait; wrestling’s predetermined?!? What’s this about, Adam?!?!?!?

[@dictatorrich3412]

Oh dear. I read "Vacated" as "Vaccinated" at first glance LOL imagine how confused I was

[@SR-kt7jc]

Finn Balor, after vacating the title due to injury: "Without this title, all I have left are my incredible good looks, my chiseled physique, and my enormous genitals."

[@crackedspyglass]

There was also that one time Vince Russo vacated every WCW championship just because

[@jeremyguillory5440]

The most random vacate I seen is an independent promotion brought roman reigns brother rosey out and he won the tag team championship and after the show he told the promoter "I'm tag champion what now?" And the guy said "our next show will be on the coast sometime this summer or in September I just need to see what dates are available for the venue. Meanwhile hold on to the title" a couple months later rosey tragically died and they lost their tag team championship because he never returned it

[@stephencastro4723]

V.A.C.A.N.T. indeed was the most decorated wrestler in history.

[@TonysMusic1974]

This entire video could be WCW 2000!

[@Christiancagepage]

Goats of KZbin wrestling

[@Captain_Pudding]

I was worried that this was just going to be a list about WCW in 2001

[@Mazz3D]

👆 under appreciated comment

[@jaycerrito3142]

You mean 2000

[@Captain_Pudding]

@@jaycerrito3142 That would be the one

[@PoshBertie]

Oh the timing, the timing...

[@jaycerrito3142]

Vacant has won more than every single title than every world champion combined in every promotion possible

[@KingHiki]

Vacant us the most prolific champion in wrestling history

[@mikepeterson764]

You could fill this with WCW 2000.

[@lukaswagner3688]

WE WANT PART 2

[@chrisjolley7180]

Haha the silver dome

[@kermielewis4451]

"The little goat who could" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@bygibambygibam7607]

edge's last match actually was a 10-man tag team on smackdown, 2 dayst after mania

[@timmyrodl1747]

"Silverdome"... I know what you did there👉🏼👉🏼

[@BigBadJerryRogers]

Our hearts will always be with the 93000 in the Silverdome.

[@hogbong1651]

I was wondering how many times HBK could appear on this list lol

[@Tattoosandjorts]

I was coming here to say the same thing. I saw the headline. Oh HBK fills half the list easy. Haha

[@KitaHer0]

at 5:10 .... is that Mike Bennett/Kanellis behind Edge?

[@GforceLEVEL1988]

Cultaholic Kenta Kobashi also vacated the GHC Heavyweight Tag Team Championship With Tamon Honda on 25.09.2006 due to diagnosed with a kidney tumor in June 2006, but the tumor was successfully removed and he returned to the ring in December 2007

[@joee95]

Don’t understand why Bret couldn’t drop the belt to Austin at survivor series

[@nielcarpnava]

Is anyone here know that from Wrestlemania XX up to Summerslam 2004, the Big Gold Belt was also vacant? 🤔

[@bryannicholls200]

Yeah, Vacant definitely had a strangle hold over the title and hung it out to dry for that period

[@w.e.chasan385]

Very very creative title (love you guys it was just to easy if a joke)

[@emanueltwr]

Vamos Cultaholic!

[@nicktaylor2657]

Where was when Andre the Giant beating Hulk Hogan for the WWF title only to sell it to Million dollar man Ted DiBiase thus the title becoming vacant? That should be number 1

[@Stack1450]

Totally agree, surprised they didn't have it on the list.

[@drefranks691]

I know a lot of work goes into the ranked from worst to best but would love one about the X division title

[@eyecue5056]

Vince Russo vacating all wcw titles should've been on here

[@BigBadJerryRogers]

Just like me with apartments

[@ayejayreviews8760]

Get thumbnail so damn beautiful miss that damn title

[@RockSmith-rl9qr]

Vacant is God tier mega star

[@dangerous1303]

Finn Balor having to lose it after the match and scratching and crawling all the way back to the top to even have a match with Lesnar was so hard to watch! At least give the Prince a run with the title!!

[@kevinlenz2171]

Hopefully Finn will get to have another Universal championship reign.

[@colourblind021]

That would be nice. But for now he has something better. Another NXT Championship reign.

[@forevermagus7706]

Id much rather see finn stay on nxt. His matches there are amazing. If it were up to me. Balor or undisputed era as nxt champion McIntyre as raws champion and rollins as smackdowns. Honestly can't remember which belt is one which show hahah

[@Rysofly]

I just started watching this and I bet Shawn Michaels gone be on here at least twice.

[@nbatch13]

List suggestion, times the secondary belts were made to feel bigger than the main? , rvds TV title, nakamuras iwgp intercontinental, mcguiness roh pure, cenas us maybe?

[@jerransperarman9411]

good video

[@Dogking71]

WCW 2000!?

[@bhumibolrushing7830]

The big gold belt was the bomb

[@clicheguevara9917]

vacated? big gold? don't give me 2000 wcw flashbacks....

[@awesomemantm2000]

Did You Know? Vacant has more title reigns than John Cena, Rikc Flair, Hulk, Stone Cold, Punk Rock and Big Show combined? But I'm not telling you anything that you don't already know

[@elsensei748]

Y'all did this on purpose didnt y'all? I would've waited to upload this

[@retrojmp23]

Damn Rollins injured sting and Finn with basically the same move buckle bomb/ barricade bomb.... maybe take that out of the arsenal Seth.

[@lilpoetat]

thanks!

[@hhtptai]

That title is absolutely stupid, but God it hurt so much when Bálor had to vacate that damn Universal Championship.

[@ahousecatnamedmr.jenkins1052]

Vince should have let Bret vacate the belt the next night on RAW after SS 1997. Bret could have gave a wonderful goodbye speech and then hand Vince the belt

[@DarkManKpakpo]

Edge actually relinquished the title in 2007 as well...his title reigns were always insane😂

[@levimorris7258]

Vince McMahon helped put together the Ali - Inoki match? What?! I did not know that

[@chewworldorder]

Honorable mention: Every title - Monday Nitro; 4/17/00

[@nickmontoya3001]

How about a Top 10 superstars who Vacated championships, (depending on the situation) the least amount of times to the most

[@thochaos13]

Giant Baa Baa, the wrestling sheep.

[@Justiceinthefog]

5:11 is that Aaron Paul next to Edge?

[@bealgates8594]

The RVD one did hurt

[@ShonkTeHonktalks]

So... About Drew

[@staticek4212]

Always wondered if Brian cage was a legit champ until I saw the photo with sabu and rvd holding the ftw belt

[@abstractoriginal426]

Didn’t Edge have to relinquish the WHC in 2007 as well? Pretty sure that’s what led to the Great Khali winning it in a battle royal

[@princealigorna7468]

I honestly think Jim Herd may have been WORSE than Vince Russo, Hogan, Nash, and Bischoff. The man had no clue about the industry. In fact, didn't he run a pizza chain?

[@greenkoopa]

2000 wcw approves this list

[@funnt.official3951]

How about you do a top 10 about titles that retired can you pls do that I would love that

[@lordtrigon1733]

I’m fond of ECW but they really disrespected the NWA title. What goes around comes around, eh Paul E? 😏

[@chriskimmel7252]

Roman reigns vacated his title due to leukaemia

[@sascha-silverthereal565]

Balor got wasted by WWE.

[@michaelhunter3744]

They probably strip Drew of the wwe title have them win it back when he recovered from covid 19 but depends how bad drew is

[@nlrproductions8106]

I really hope Drew doesn’t have to drop the WWE Championship. Figure away around it somehow.

[@MrEandc4life]

Someone else thinks like me. Brian pierce will beat reigns via owens and vacate the title
