#4. The Miz became the world champion for 8 days

The Miz filed a lawsuit against then-Mr. Money in the Bank Otis for a match in late 2020. The A-Lister went on to win both the case and then the match to grab the briefcase.

After several failed attempts to cash in, he finally succeeded at Elimination Chamber in 2021.

McIntyre had just won the Chamber match when he was brutally attacked by Bobby Lashley. It didn't take Miz much time to overcome an exhausted McIntyre, thus ending The Scottish Warrior's second reign at 97 days.

#3. Bobby Lashley has won the WWE Champioship twice during Roman Reigns' Universal title run

Bobby Lashley earned a match against The Miz on the March 1st 2021 episode of RAW, just eight days after Elimination Chamber. The All-Mighty defeated his opponent in dominating fashion and won the WWE Championship for the first time in his career.

He went on to have a great title reign, holding the gold for 196 days. Lashley retained his title against the likes of Braun Strowman, Drew McIntyre, Randy Orton and Goldberg before finally dropping it to Big E.

The All-Mighty then managed to claim the WWE Championship again when he pinned Brock Lesnar in a dream match at Royal Rumble in 2022. However, that reign lasted less than a month, ending at Elimination Chamber.
