10 Superstars with most World Title reigns in WWE History

#4 Edge - 11 Reigns

The most successful World Heavyweight Champion in WWE History.

Had it not been for that unfortunate injury that forced him to retire from in-ring action as a World Champion in 2011, Edge would have certainly added a number of World Titles to his already tremendous tally. Despite starting his career as a tag team specialist and a mid-card wrestler, Edge made a stunning jump to the main event scene in the mid-2000s and stayed there till the end of his career.

The Ultimate Opportunist that he was, Edge first won the WWE Title after cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase in January 2006 and won the title three more times the same year. However, it wasn't until his first World Heavyweight Title win in 2007 that he started scaling new height in the company.

As a record seven-time holder of WWE's version of the Big Gold Belt, Edge had a series of all-time great rivalries with the likes of The Undertaker, Batista, John Cena and Jeff Hardy which turned the title into the most prestigious World Title at that time and made Edge synonymous with that championship which he held till his last day as a wrestler.
