Both were good title reigns but I went with Rick Rude.

I was going to say who ever voted for Hardy deserves a Rude Awakering LOL!

Anyway the push Rude got as Champion was amazing and it made the title just as impotant if not more so than the WCW Title for that period. As leader of the Dangerous Alliance he had some many great feuds and matches. Rude all the way.

I'm the one that Voted for Hardy. He feud with MVP was amazing over that title. And another thing is that title was the highlight on his career. It was his world title win, the ECW wasn't. After years of chasing the title, he finally got it. I loved his feud over the belt. And honestly, I don't think Rick Rudes title reign was needed. Hardy's was.

1. Explain why you don't think Rude's title reign was needed. He had just come into WCW and it would have been a bit of rush to put the world title on him at that stage, the US Title at that stage was WCW's version of the IC Title, and was the perfect title for a killer heel like Rude to hold epscially as part of a Horseman style faction.

2. Also wouldn't you say Hardy's highlights came in the team with his brother Jeff, there was once a time when I could see him having a very good singles career, but for a number of reasons that didn't happen.
