#1. The Great Khali

The Great Khali signed with WWE in 2006 and went on to win his first and only World Heavyweight Championship two years later by eliminating Kane and Batista in a 20-Man Battle Royal on Smackdown. He successfully defended his title several times before losing it to Batista, ending his reign at just 61 days.

Khali is regarded by many as not only one of the worst champion in WWE history but also one of the worst wrestler in WWE history. He was very stiff in the ring, his legs were his weakness and he had a very weird finishing move; a karate chop.

His title defences were dull just like most of his matches and his title run was a massive disappointment. He also lifted the World Heavyweight Championship upside down, and not just once. Thankfully that was his last run as World Heavyweight Champion.
