The Top 5 Current Triple Crown Champions In WWE

If you look back and examine the list of WWE Triple Crown champions over the years, you will find they're a total of 41 champions to date. The original task of becoming a Triple Crown champion was to win the WWE World, Intercontinental, and Tag Team Championships respectively.

As WWE grew and expanded, the roster was split between two distinct brands (RAW and SmackDown), giving wrestlers a chance to accomplish this feat between both brands.
