5 Superstars that won the WWE title the quickest

#1 Finn Balor

Finn Balor won The Universal Championship in just 27 days

Now this is a controversial pick, we suppose, as we're not counting Balor’s NXT run. But from the night that Finn Balor made his main roster debut, he won the championship in merely 27 days at WWE Summerslam 2016.

And because of the injury he sustained at Seth Rollins’ hands, he was forced to relinquish it the very next night. We’re sure Balor’s return is going to be truly epic. Simply cannot wait!
