In the history of the WWE there have been 3 men to hold both the Intercontinental and European championships at the same time and be known as the Eurocontinental champion. And those men are: D'Lo Brown  Jeff Jarrett  Kurt Angle  And I don't count RVD because the Euro title was essentially deactivated the moment he won it, he never even physically held the belt. They only used the IC belt in the unification ladder match. Out of the 3 men who is your favorite Eurocontinental champion? For me I better recognize that it's D'Lo Brown. He was the first and his run as champ was some of his best work. |

Great thread.
Went with Kurt. I liked his presence with the physical titles and always thought the Wrestlemania 2000 match was a good concept, albeit clunky in execution.

I went with Jarrett. He was a great heel during this time and having both the belts just kinda worked. However, it's a shame that holding both mid card titles didn't lead to an even bigger push for D'lo,despite what happened to Droz.

D'Lo, he was a big part of WWF television when I became a full time viewer and honestly felt like one of the top stars there. Deserved more.

Damn someone beat me to the "D'Lo doesn't count" line. That became a meme amongst my friends wherever we discussed D'Lo.

D'Lo was a great example of how midcard titles could help elevate a wrestler. I feel like he was on the cusp of big things until Russo left who was his biggest supporter and Droz happened

D'lo was such a great hand, but he pretty much lost his drive and confidence overnight after the Droz accident, understandably. He gets my vote.

D'Lo during his chest protector and European era was so great. It is easy to get overshadowed with Rock and some of the other Nation members but D'Lo was probably over sooner than Mark Henry and pre-Ho Godfather in 1998. And he was involved in more storylines than pre APA Faarooq.

To someone who said D'lo didn't count, how does Jarrett? Didn't he just hand the title to Mark Henry the next night after winning it.
