Beating his relation by a matter of days, it is the colossal Yokozuna who takes silver as the second youngest WWE Champion of all time.

After winning the 1993 Royal Rumble, the Sumo wrestler was destined to meet Bret 'Hitman' Hart at WrestleMania 9.

Meeting in Ceaser's Palace, the wily veteran tried to topple Yoko, but was thwarted at every turn.

Somehow able to lock in the Sharpshooter, it seemed the Canadian had Yokozuna beat, until a throw of salt into Hart's eyes by Mr. Fuji changed it all.

Winning the WWF Championship, Yoko's reign would last minutes, as Hulk Hogan would appear, and win the title to a mixed reaction from the crowd.

Regaining the title from the Hulkster at King of the Ring, Yoko would hold the title until WrestleMania 10, where Hart would finally get his moment.
