Going with Bruno because once again Punk hasn't had a great title reign... I wonder how much further Punk is going to undeservingly go.

Punk to win due him being the hottest thing in wrestling right now, despite the fact that he has never really had an okay world title run besides the one now.

Punk's WWE Reigns have actually been better than people think, but as champion he has not quite done enough to vote for him ahead of Bruno.

Punk , by far. The only thing that Sammartino has is the length of his reign, and that was back in the old days. I'd like to see him try a 7 year reign today.

Okay I've given Bruno his props enough by voting for him because of how long he had it and now time to go with my obvious preference. Punk hasn't had a long reign yet but I enjoyed the hell out of his reign when he was feuding with Jeff and same with Cena. Short and entertaining works for me over long and dragged out. His ECW title reign was nice too.

Edit: Forgot to point out one of the main reasons that factor in me voting for him which is his awesome ROH title reign.

Went with Punk because I have enjoyed his title reigns on four different brands (ROH, ECW, Smackdown and RAW).
