Are Daniel Bryan's 2 WWE title reigns on there?
Because they should be, although at no fault to him.

As much as those two reigns sucked for Bryan, people seem to have forgotten that Ziggler's first WHC run that lasted something like a day when Vickie handed him Edge's title is on the record books. Bryan can rebound from this. Yes it sucks but he can get past it.
Barrett when they started the Barrett Barrage seemed to have some momentum. He went on a decent winning streak for a while and seemed to be running roughshod over his opponents.
One day reigns are nothing new but yeah they do seem pretty pointless, especially when the same person wins the title back.
I kind of wish the people booking the Divas division would take a couple minutes and pretend that they were booking for the male wrestlers. Part of the reason people aren't interested in the Divas divisions (apart from having about 5 minutes a week for matches on the main shows) is the fact that most of the time their storylines are so freaking pathetic. Instead of fighting over the title half the time it's fighting over a man or some other crap. Once in a while is one thing but seriously, they're there to wrestle (well some of them anyways), stop booking them like they're high school drama queens (except maybe the ones who are).

Everybody knows that it's the fans who are responsible for perceiving title reigns as being meaningless or the worst ever!  |

It sure beats WWE revisionism when you have multiple people over the last several years that have had "reigns" over a few minutes long; Triple H, Orton, Cena, Mysterio, Bryan. Sorry, but I truly believe if you can't even last a f***in' day with the title...they shouldn't even count it. |

I wouldn't put Daniel Bryan's first title win on the list. He got a clean win over Cena, and it elevated him to a main event feud with Randy Orton. One could argue that it's at least the best quick title reign anyone has had.
The second one which led to the title being vacated was pretty pointless. If they were going to have a tournament for the title, I could see vacating it. But vacating the title, only to have the same two guys wrestle for it again? It just created a pointless gap in Orton's reign.
I would have put Axel's IC title run on the list because it was forgettable.

Axel's run was somewhat forgettable. For instance, I doubt we'll be talking about it in five years, but still it elevated him to an extent which is exactly what a title is suppose to do. |

Miz's title win at Mania derailed Barrett's momentum? I respectfully ask: during 2013, when did Barrett ever have momentum? He beat Orton clean, had a bunch of things going early in the year. Then they put him in that horrendous feud with Sheamus that lead absoulutely nowhere, then he feuded with Miz for some reason. He had a direction at the start of the year though. |

One random win against three losses to Orton isn't momentum. He spent the rest of January to March jobbing to Sheamus, Bo Dallas, Bryan, and Del Rio. Besides a couple of title defenses against Kofi and one against Bo, his only wins were over Gabriel, Ryder, Yoshi, and Santino on Superstars, Main Event, and Saturday Morning Slam. |

They've all pretty much been lame. Some of them like Ziggler's let us think it was gonna be good but then he got hurt and the rest is history. Del Rio, Axel, AJ, Cena and Orton reigns have all sucked. I didn't include the US title because I don't know who the hell the champ is.

Barrett and Sheamus feuded? I don't remember it at all, and those're two guys I've been wanting to see feud. |

Now that I think about it, how many GOOD title reigns were there last year? The only ones that come to mind are AJ (Divas), Big E (IC), Cody/Goldust (Tag), Shield (Tag) and maybe Cena's WWE title reign.

He had stuff going for him though, it's not like he had no direction at the start of the year. I'm not saying it was a good reign |

Isn't that why the AJ/Kaitlyn feud earlier this year was a success, because it was booked and treated like a feud between Superstars as opposed to a typical Divas feud. I mean promos, backstage brawls, in-ring brawls, contract signings, etc. Instead of wrestling each other in tag matches each and every week, they were basically kept apart for the most part. That's probably as good as it gets for the Divas division. |
