WWE World Championship
The WWE World Championship has a rich and storied history dating back to 1963 when Buddy Rogers became the inaugural champion. The title was originally known as the WWWF World Heavyweight Championship, and it was defended primarily in the northeast United States.
Over the years, the title has been held by some of the biggest names in professional wrestling, including Bruno Sammartino, Hulk Hogan, The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Roman Reigns, and John Cena.
In 2016, the belt was briefly split into two separate championships, the WWE Championship, and the Universal Championship. The titles were later unified, and the Universal Championship became the top title on the main roster. Nevertheless, for WWE superstars this is still a belt they dreamt to win once in their careers.
