4 Greatest Grand Slam Champions in WWE

Being a Grand Slam champion is a major accomplishment, which very few wrestlers have been able to accomplish. While many top-notch Superstars like John Cena, Undertaker and others have failed to accomplish it, many mid-card wrestlers like Jeff Hardy, Rob Van Dam, and others have been able to call themselves Grand Slam Champion.

Under the present format, to become a Grand Slam Champion, a wrestler needs to win one Primary or World Championship, one Tag Team title, and, both the secondary Championships. While Jeff Hardy is the newest member to join the list of Grand Slam Champions, Shawn Michaels is the first ever Grand Slam Champion in the WWE.

So far, there have been 19 individual Grand Slam Champions in the WWE. Here's ranking the top 4:

#4 Chris Jericho

Jericho is undoubtedly one of the best entertainers of all times

Chris Jericho became the first ever Undisputed WWF Champion when he defeated both Rock and Stone Cold in back to back matches at the Vengeance PPV in 2001 and unified the WWF World title. He is a larger than life Superstar, who knows how to bring the best out of his opponents. Jericho has fought and defeated wrestlers across the globe.
