WWE has had some great champions since 2010

#1 CM Punk – WWE Championship

CM Punk may no longer be the best in the world within professional wrestling, but his 434-day WWE Championship reign will forever go down in history for being one of the most enjoyable runs in the modern era. Punk, who won the title as a babyface in November 2011, went on to become the most hated heel in the company by the time he dropped the strap to The Rock at the 2013 Royal Rumble.

The title felt prestigious again for the first time in a long time, and a big part of that was the work ethic of the champion CM Punk.
