#9 Brock Lesnar – Universal Championship

This may be an unpopular opinion given that he’s only defended the title three times, but when you include his recent classic against AJ Styles, the case for Brock Lesnar being on this list gets a lot stronger. Think about it – he’s a prizefighter champion, he looks like a monster, and every time we see him with the belt it feels like a special moment.
Brock has elevated the title whether fans want to admit it or not, and if he holds onto it until WrestleMania 34, he would’ve been the champion for an entire calendar year. That’s an impressive feat in today’s wrestling landscape, and as long as he can keep putting on Match of the Night bouts, we’re happy for him to carry it past New Orleans and beyond.
