Chris gets the points, but I'm apt to take them away for asking one of the easier wrestling trivia questions out there.
Bruno Sammartino. He held the title for 7 straight years, defeating The ORIGINAL Nature Boy Buddy Rogers is 2 minutes with a over the shoulder back breaker, and then losing it to a stunned MSG crowd to The Russian Bear Ivan Koloff in 72' (I think that was the year). He later regained the championship 2 more times for a total of about 9 years as WWWF champion, losing the last time to the afformentioned Superstar.
I'll go update the first thread where I'm keeping track of the points.
Next Question for 5 points:
Who was the first RECOGNIZED World Heavyweight Champion ever?
