I went with Barry Windham. Ignoring Bret's joke title reign last year his four title reigns lasted a total of around six months. It was just a hot potato at that time and didn't mean much. Windham's title reign was better.

Great point Troy. This is a tough one because Bret had some great matches during those WCW runs, but I don't think the reigns themselfs stand out, Windham and the US Title were in their prime when he had it. Windham for me.

I love Windham and feel he is one of the most underrated wrestlers ever but I had to go Bret. He had some great matches even if his reigns weren't great.

My pick went for Windham, When Bret held the title it didn't seem that big of a deal which was the opposite when it came to Windham.
