That N Word
Actively evolving
So WWE now has a DVD coming out of the greatest United States Champions in history. All-Time Greats has held that title including Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat,Lex Luger,Ric Flair,Booker T,The Big Show,Eddie Guerrero,Dusty Rhodes,John Cena,Steve Austin,Greg "The Hammer" Valentine,Chris Benoit,Harley Race,"Ravishing" Rick Rude,etc. We have also seen guys like MVP have great reigns with the title. My question is who is the greatest US Champion of All-Time? I mean all those names above definitely stake a claim. And with me being born in the late 90's maybe I'm a little bias and I know I'm gonna catch heat for saying this but I'm going with Cena. Yeah, most would say either Flair or Luger, but I'm going with Cena.
Why? His first title he won in WWE, in his first WrestleMania Match was the US Title. He then went on to become a 5x time record US Champion (tied with Ric Flair for most.) Not only that, but the fact that in 2015 he made the US Title the best part of WWE programming with his US Title Open Challenge. He actually brought the belt up from "title that was just there" to a Main Event worthy championship. Putting on 4 and 5 Star matches on a regular. His US Title Open Challenges put KO on the map and brought Cesaro up from obscurity. Even though WWE botched the finish with the Del Rio return. It was still a pretty damn good title reign. In fact, I wouldn't mind seeing it again.
But that's just MY opinion. Who do you see as the greatest US Champion of all-time? Flair? Cena? Luger? Guerrero? Austin? Dusty? Race? Sound off in the comments!!!
