If X were a Title: tracking the lineage of some strange stipulations

[Leon TrotSky]

Another one I got:

Who Holds Dino Bravo's Weightlifting Record

Was that ever put up in a match? Or was there some weightlifting competition on WWF TV?

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

Also I was going to suggest who holds Dino Bravo’s claim to Canada’s Strongest Man and Mark Henry’s World’s Strongest Man

It was Dino Bravo claiming to be the strongest man in the world at the 1988 Royal Rumble

Note to self - also do the King of the Ring Championship that Mabel won after KOTR 95 but was never mentioned again

Who holds the title for BEST IN THE WORLD?

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Who holds the title for BEST IN THE WORLD?

From Shane McMahon's World Cup victory, the current champ is Xavier Woods

If you're referring to when CM Punk called himself that, you'd need to tell me the first time he ever called himself that.

 

[Comrade Khan]

lol i was indeed talking about shane, no idea about punk

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

On the April 22, 2004 Smackdown! episode Booker T declared himself the biggest star on Smackdown! which started a feud with the Undertaker. Now The Undertaker beat Book at Judgment Day. Who holds the claim to the biggest star on Smackdown?

Who is the current AWA World Light Heavyweight Champion?
Actually, that's not an easy question. In 1988, there was a match between current AWA LHW Champion Mike Graham and Jim Backlund. It's not known if Backlund won this one, but when he came to FMW, he was billed as the sixth AWA LHW Champion (Graham being the fifth). He then went on to defend and lose that title in FMW, which after AWA died was billed at the FMW LHW title, and then the WWA World Martial Arts Junior Heavyweight title. So there's two completely irreconcilable lineages. Time to do this...

Spoiler: Who is AWA LHW Champ?

1991-05-03 Buck Zumhofe - is the final AWA-recognised champion, and performs on the final AWA card. This was AFTER his first jail time for child sexual abuse. Fuck Buck Zumhofe.

[1993-04-04 Hogan beats Yokozuna at WrestleMania IX...]
2020-11-22 Roman Reigns - beats McIntyre at WWE Survivor Series

Spoiler: Who is WWA World Martial Arts JHW Champ?

1992-09-07 Katsuji Ueda - beats Dr. Luther at an FMW live event, in what is the last known match for the title. He keeps until 1993, where the title is retired. The exact date is unknown, so I'll consider his reign to have ended on 1993-09-23, where the first round of the tournament for its successor, the Independent World Junior Heayweight Title, started.
1994-07-31 Katsutoshi Niiyama - beats Ueda at an FMW live event

Mark Henry's record is some guy called Ricotta Flair, starting from the time that title was involved in a feud with Bo Dallas

 

[Comrade Khan]
