Winning a championship in the world of professional wrestling means that you are one of the best the company/promotion has to offer. Although pro wrestling is scripted and the results are pre-determined, the sheer joy of seeing one's favourite Superstar win a championship is a feeling only a few can match, especially if you are a fan of the business.
WWE, being the biggest stage in the wrestling world, has a plethora of championships with a storied and long history. These championships have been held by some of the all-time greats of the business, which adds a certain amount of prestige to these titles.
Winning a championship in the WWE is one of the biggest accomplishments a wrestler can achieve, often coming after years of hard work and dedication.
But there are a few Superstars in the WWE who, despite their undeniable talents, are yet to taste championship glory when it comes to the biggest stage in wrestling. Here are 4 such Superstars:
# 4: Tyler Breeze
Tyler Breeze is one of the longest-tenured active Superstars in the company as he has been with the company for over eight years, the first five of which he spent in developmental.
Breeze signed with the company in 2010 and was assigned to Florida Championship Wrestling, WWE's developmental territory before NXT. Breeze wrestled under the name ' Mike Dalton' and would win the FCW Heavyweight Championship and the FCW Tag Team Championship alongside current WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, then known as Leakee, before moving to NXT.
In NXT, Breeze would not win any championships but he would be a part of some high profile matches for the yellow brand. Breeze even got the opportunity to lock horns with Japanese Legend, Jushin Thunder Liger at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn in 2015.
Breeze debuted on the main roster in October of 2015 and started feuding with Dolph Ziggler. That's been as good as it's got the former NXT star, who has not managed to get a sniff at any championship gold in the last three years.
The only memorable thing about his main roster run has been his partnership with Fandango and their 'Fashion Police' segments. An injury to Fandango at the start of the year has meant that Breeze has been used as nothing more than an enhancement talent and comic relief in recent months.
# 3 Aiden English
Aiden English signed with the WWE in early 2012 and spent four years in developmental, first in FCW and then in NXT.
In NXT, English tasted championship success when, along with his tag team partner Simon Gotch, collectively known as The Vaudevillians, he defeated Blake and Murphy for the NXT Tag Team Championship at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn in 2015. The duo would hold the titles for two months before dropping them to Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder on a November 2015 episode of NXT.
On April 7, 2016, English and his tag partner, Gotch would make their main roster debut on an episode of SmackDown attacking the Lucha Dragons. After Gotch was released by the company in April of 2017, English would transition to being a singles star before he had his breakout moment teaming up with Rusev in the fall of 2017 to form ' Russev Day'.
Rusev Day would become one of the hottest things on the main roster and would give English's ailing career a major boost before the Drama King turned on Russev a few weeks ago on an episode of SmackDown.
Despite challenging for the tag titles on multiple occasions as part of The Vaudevillians and then Russev Day, English hasn't been able to win any Championship on the main roster.
# 2 Sami Zayn
One of the hottest independent stars to ever sign for NXT, Sami Zayn made a name for himself wrestling in various Indy promotions across the globe under the ring name 'EL Generico '.
The Montreal- native signed with WWE in January 2013 and debuted just four months later for NXT on May 22.
After unsuccessfully challenging for the NXT Championship on multiple occasions, Zayn would finally win the NXT Championship from Adrian Neville at NXT Takeover: R Evolution in December 2014 with the added stipulation that if Zayn lost, he would leave NXT. After the match, Zayn was attacked by his long-time friend Kevin Owens and would drop the NXT title to Owens at NXT Takeover: Rival in February 2016 ending his Championship reign at just 62 days.
Zayn would wrestle his final NXT match against a debuting Shinsuke Nakamura at NXT Takeover: Dallas during WrestleMania 32 weekend.
In spite of being on the main roster for almost three years, Zayn hasn't been able to win any gold in the WWE. The former NXT champion is currently on the sidelines after suffering a torn rotator cuff earlier this year and is expected to be out of in-ring action for the rest of 2018. A superstar of Sami's calibre and credibility deserves at least a secondary title but sadly that hasn't been the case so far.
# 1 Samoa Joe
After setting the independent scene on fire during the early to mid-2000's, Samoa Joe became one of the pillars of TNA/ Impact Wrestling where he would work for almost a decade from 2005 to 2015. Joe would go on an undefeated streak early on in his TNA before losing his first match in the company against Kurt Angle, eighteen months after his debut match.
Joe would then go on to multiple Championships and headline several pay-per-views for the company before parting ways with them in February 2015.
On May 20, 2015, Joe made his much-awaited NXT debut at NXT Takeover: Unstoppable in the main event, getting involved in a heated staredown with Kevin Owens.
Joe would later win the NXT Championship from Finn Balor at an NXT live event on April 21, 2016. After successfully defending his title against Balor at NXT Takeover: The End, Joe lost his title to Shinsuke Nakamura at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn II before regaining it a few months later at NXT Takeover: Toronto, becoming the first superstar to win the NXT title twice.
Joe would then drop the belt to Nakamura in Osaka on December 3, 2016, making his second reign the shortest in NXT history.
Joe would then make his main roster debut at the RAW after the Royal Rumble in 2017, attacking Seth Rollins. Joe would then feud with Rollins and then unsuccessfully challenge for the Universal Championship twice.
Joe was drafted to SmackDown at the Superstar Shakeup earlier this year. Joe faced off against AJ Styles at SummerSlam 2018 but the match ended in a DQ. Joe would again challenge Styles at Hell in a Cell and Super ShowDown, but the former TNA champion came up short both times.
Despite being one of the hottest stars in the company, Joe has still not managed to get his hands on any major gold in the WWE. Many believed that Joe-Styles feud would end with the Samoan Submission Machine winning the WWE title but that has not been the case, with the company depriving the fans of a potentially excellent WWE champion once again.
