There has never been a black WWE Champion, either.  He was samoan. |

and also why isn't Andre under the shortest title reign? Exactly, wasn't it for only like 45 sec. before he gave it to DiBiase & how long did Hogan have the title after beating Taker at Tuesday in Texas before it was declared vacant? |

i thought Mysterio was champ at some time? i never would have guessed Hogan held it 6 times. He held it 5 times before he left the WWF the first time. Even more surprising is there was less title changes in the 80s, than the seventies. |

The WWE title has changed hands in 49 different cities, 24 different states, and three different countries. Bret won it from Flair in Canada. What's the third country? |

Some more facts:
The title has gone through many name changes in almost 7 years.
It was the World Wide Wrestling Federation World Heavyweight Championship
The World Wide Wrestling Federation Heavyweight Championship(upon re-joining the NWA)
The World Wrestling Federation Heavyweight Championship(upon the name change)
The World Wrestling Federation World Heavyweight Championship(upon re-withdrawl from the NWA)
The World Wrestling Federation Undisputed World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship(upon unification with the (WCW) World Heavyweight Championship)
The World Wrestling Entertainment Undisputed World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship(upon the name change)
The World Wrestling Entertainment World Heavyweight Championship(upon extracting the (WCW) World Heavyweight Championship)
You can put 'wrestling' before 'championship' on any of those names, and it's still valid, as well as any number of abbreviations. The usually just refer to it as the WWE Championship these days.
Here's all the champions under the different names. Inoki isn't there.
Buddy Rogers, Bruno Sammartino, Ivan Koloff, Pedro Morales, Stan Stasiak, Billy Graham, and Bob Backlund held the WWWF Championship; Backlund, Iron Shiek, Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, Randy Savage, Ultimate Warrior, Sgt. Slaughter, Undertaker, Ric Flair, Bret Hart, Yokozuna, Diesel, HBK, Sid, Stone Cold, Kane, The Rock, Mankind, Vince, Triple H, Big Show, and Kurt Angle held the WWF Championship; Chris Jericho, HHH, Hogan, Undertaker, Rock, and Brock Lesnar held the WWF/WWE Undisputed World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship; Lesnar, Big Show, Angle, Eddie Guerrero, JBL, John Cena, Edge, RVD, Randy Orton, Jeff Hardy, Dave Batista, and Seamus have held the WWE Championship.
So, thats 7 WWWF Champions, 22 WWF Champions, 6 Undisputed champions, and (so far) 12 WWE Champions.
Now that's interesting.
