The World Heavyweight Title's heritage can be traced back to the first world heavyweight championship, thereby giving the belt a legacy over 100 years old, making it the oldest in the world. It was, therefore, a very significant title in the Wrestling business.

The Undertaker made history in 2008 when he became the first and only challenger to compete for the World Heavyweight Championship, the famous title introduced by Eric Bischoff in 2002, at back-to-back WrestleManias and win the belt on both occasions.

After beating Batista to win the title at WrestleMania 23, in an excellent match that deserved to be the main event, ‘Taker then defeated Edge the following year, tapping out the champion to capture the world title for the second time in as many years.

Other superstars have successfully retained a world championship in back-to-back years, such as John Cena in 2006 and 2007, but in both of those cases, Cena wasn’t the challenger. And while Stone Cold Steve Austin was crowned the new champion at both WrestleMania 14 and 15, that was the old WWF Championship, rather than the revived World Heavyweight title.
