If we're talking WWF/E title reigns *only*, Shane Douglas wins by a country mile for his quarter-of-an-hour title reign as Intercontinental Champion. Wrong. Andre the Giant and Yokozuna were both WWF World Champion for under 5 minutes TOTAL. I can't believe how many people couldn't be arsed reading the first post in this thread. Andre the Giant was World Champion for 5 minutes-ish but ALSO held the World Tag Team Titles for two months-ish, so his COMBINED Title reigns were two months and five minutes (approx). Yokozuna was World Champion for 5 minutes but ALSO regained it and had over 200 days as champion PLUS held the tag team titles for eight months or so, so his COMBINED title reigns were over 12 months. Dean Douglas held the Intercontinental Title for 15 minutes and literally nothing else during his tenure in the WWF. This isn't shortest ever title reigns, it's people whose combined title reigns- that is, all their title reigns added together- add up to something inconsequential. Most of the people mentioned (Jacques Rougeau, Yokozuna, Steve Austin) all had lengthy reigns with at least one title.

Also, I would say that Mick Foley has the shortest combined days to number of times champion ratio than any other world champ. His four reigns barely add up to a month if that. Three.

Bobcat was Hardcore champ for like a split moment Terri Runnels and Ho # 2330023 share that honor too.

Just a few clarifications...
Jimmy Snuka had a run with the NWA U.S. title, and two runs with the NWA World Tag Team title. So he has held some important championships. He probably would have gotten an I-C title run too -- if he hadn't pulled that "Sid & Nancy" stunt.
Terry Funk's NWA title reign lasted for over a year. Nothing short about that run at all.

Considering WWF/E only, what about The Million $ Man? When Andre gave him the title, wasn't he like stripped of it immediately?

Considering WWE/F only, Marty Jannetty and Jacques Rougeau had pretty short Championship reigns. Ditto Kerry Von Erich Oddly enough, Megastars like Piper and Andre the Giant were champions for only a couple of months. Yeah, but Rougeau was tag champion three times. Jannetty's title reigns probably only add up to five weeks, tops, however. Rougeau's three reigns are around the 100days mark, combined Jannetty got a 20 days IC run, and 7 days as Tag Team champ. (un)impressive... poor Marty

the anser have jerry lawler. he did wrestle since 1960s Jerry Lawler has held the USWA title 25 times, as well as the AWA title. Not sure about the combined length, but it's gotta be a while because I don't think the USWA title was defended 24/7

He held the tag-title for 1 day with Waltman and a little under a month with Crash. Put that together with his Hardcore runs, he might have a combined regin of a little over 2 months.

Wasn't Bobcat later Victoria?
DiBiase was never officially WWF Champion, but I still count him with a 2 day reign. He was, however, Tag Team Champion and WWF North American Champion, not to mention Million Dollar Champion. He probably helt titles in other promotions as well. I never saw him anywhere else but WCW after he retired from the ring.

Wasn't Bobcat later Victoria? No. Victoria was a different Ho. She and some girl named Mandy were the ones Eddie Guerrero cheated on Chyna with.

Mick Foley? His three World title reigns combined are a week, absolute maximum. Nope. A few months, probably. Also, the guy was tag champ a bajillion times, tag champs in ECW, and WCW tag champs, plus his time as the first Hardcore champion.
