WWE stars who won the most titles this decade (2010-2019)

I've said this many times before but it usually always rings true - not all WWE Superstars are created equal. Some get numerous runs atop the company while others struggle just to get that one opportunity to run with one of the promotion's top prizes. Stars like Randy Orton, John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins have become synonymous with the main-event scene over the last decade.

What is surprising, however, is that despite those runs atop the company for the men mentioned above, there are also several other performers who have won many titles this decade. With two sets of tag team titles and two mid-card belts to pursue, stars can be Champions in the WWE. It's just that they might not have the chance to hold either the WWE or Universal Championships.

That doesn't mean that a star or stars cannot be synonymous with a title like the Intercontinental Championship or a set of tag titles. The Miz has been one of the more recent names who tried to bring prestige back to the IC title. And the New Day has cemented itself as the top tag team in the WWE for years.

So which stars actually dominated this past decade (2010-2019) by winning the most gold? Some names on this list might surprise you while some won't. Here are the WWE stars with the most title wins in this decade.

#6 Tie between Randy Orton and Daniel Bryan - 9 combined title wins each

Randy Orton

One of the names that you would expect to be on this list or towards the top would be the Legend Killer, Randy Orton. But due to a relative lack of mid-card or tag team title runs, the Viper has "only" nine title victories this decade.

He was of course front and center towards the beginning of the decade, battling Daniel Bryan, John Cena and the likes for the top titles on RAW and SmackDown. Orton has four WWE Championship runs and three runs with the World Heavyweight Championship.

During his time in the under-card, the Viper also has a United States Championship run and a reign as the SmackDown Tag Team Champs alongside Bray Wyatt. Since Bryan was one of Orton's main opponents in the mid-teens, the Planet's Champion also had multiple runs as WWE Champ.

In the decade, Bryan collected four WWE titles and one World Heavyweight Championship. He also has one reign each as the US Champion, IC Champion, RAW Tag Team Champion (Team Hell No) and SmackDown Tag Team Champion (with Rowan).

#5 Tie between Charlotte Flair and Sheamus - 10 combined title wins each

The Queen and her many titles

Charlotte Flair is unsurprisingly the lone woman on this list. She joined the main roster with high expectations. The expectations can be credited to both her extremely impressive in-ring work and the fact that she is the daughter of the legendary Ric Flair.

She was the one chosen to take the then Divas Championship away from Nikki Bella during Bella's record-setting reign in 2015. The title was then rechristened the WWE Women's title at WrestleMania 32. Since becoming a member of the main roster, the Queen has won four RAW Women's Championships and five SmackDown Women's titles. While she is repeatedly referred to as a 10-time Champion, her longest reign was during her first run as the SmackDown Women's Champion at 146 days.

Sheamus was initially a main-event staple prior to his most recent run in the tag team division with Cesaro. As a singles star, the Celtic Warrior captured one World Heavyweight Championship and 2 WWE Championships. He also added two reigns with the US title prior to forming the Bar with the Swiss Superman. As the Bar, the duo has won the RAW Tag Team titles four times and SmackDown Tag Team belts once.

#4 Dolph Ziggler - 11 combined titles

The Showoff

When you think of stars that have defined the WWE mid-card, Dolph Ziggler has to come to mind. He did get a run as the World Heavyweight Champion after cashing in his Money in the Bank contract. It was one of the most emotional and well-received cash-ins in the MITB briefcase history.

But ever since then, the Showoff has been used primarily in the mid-card and to make other/newer stars look good. It's no surprise that he excels in that role, but it doesn't mean that he has been bereft of gold throughout the decade.

While his one major title win was way back in 2013, he has collected a lot of gold throughout the past 10 years. Ziggler has also carried the IC title six times, the US title twice and tag team gold twice on RAW. He was awarded the WHC by Vickie Guerrero in 2011 but didn't win it, so I did not include it here.

The Showoff has proven to be someone that the fans might get behind in the fashion of Kofi Kingston earlier this year. Kingston didn't get a major title shot or run until this year, but Ziggler's only run with the main title was cut short due to an injury. Will he ever get another chance like that in his career?

#3 Tie between John Cena and Seth Rollins - 12 combined title wins each

Cena with a title was a familiar picture throughout his time in WWE.

Cena and Rollins have some title history linkage between them. As you probably know, Cena was in the midst of a run as the US Champion while Rollins held the WWE Championship at the same time. Rollins won both titles at SummerSlam in 2015 but the Doctor of Thuganomics took the belt back at Night of Champions in 2015.

In the decade, the Franchise won the WWE Championship seven times (one win was unified), the World Heavyweight Championship once and tag team titles twice. He also captured the US title twice during the decade. His "US Open Challenges" were often the highlights of shows due to the uncertainty as to who would appear and also regarding the potential of someone defeating Cena.

While Cena started off the decade as the Face that Runs the Place, Rollins has ended it that way. As a top star in WWE, Rollins has won the RAW Tag Team titles five times with numerous partners (Reigns once, Dean Ambrose twice, Braun Strowman once, Jason Jordan once). He's had a brief reign as US Champion while holding both the WWE and Universal Championship two times each over the last ten years.

#2 The Miz - 14 combined titles

The Miz has been synonymous with the IC title during his WWE career.

The A-Lister is one of the most loyal and longest-tenured stars on the entire WWE roster. Even though he's taken time off here and there in his career to film movies, he's always returned to the company that he loves.

Like many stars before him, the Miz only has one major run with a title in the company which occurred during his big feud with Cena. In addition to his one reign as WWE Champion, he also had a lone reign as US Champ during the decade.

Where he has made the most impact is in the mid-card and tag team divisions. The Miz became the star most relatable to the IC Championship during the decade due to his eight reigns with the belt. He had numerous feuds with Dean Ambrose, Ziggler and Rollins over the title throughout the last ten years.

The Miz also has been a reliable performer in the tag team division, picking up a reign with the SmackDown Tag Team belts alongside Shane McMahon earlier this year. In addition to that win, he has held the RAW Tag Team titles on three different occasions (with Big Show, Cena, and Damien Mizdow). The RAW Tag Team titles were once known as the WWE Tag Team Championships and were brought back as the RAW titles during the brand split.

#1 Kofi Kingston - 15 combined titles

Kofi Kingston

The former WWE Champion is one of the most decorated WWE stars of all time and is the most decorated star of the past decade. The fashion in which he lost the WWE Championship was disappointing, but he has had plenty of other titles throughout his career.

Before his run with the New Day, Kingston was a staple of the mid-card. He won three Intercontinental Championships and two US titles. But as we all know, the Power of Positivity has primarily been keeping the tag team division afloat in the WWE.

As a member of the New Day, Kingston is a seven-time Champ with two RAW Tag title reigns and five SmackDown Tag title reigns. But before the run with Big E and Xavier Woods, he won tag team gold on two other occasions.

It is refreshing when hard-working and deserving stars like Kingston get shots at carrying the top prizes in the company. He hasn't been without gold for very long, however, so at least his resume remains one of the more impressive in the company.
