I don't think the Hardcore title was a bad title. I loved it due to the possibilities of how you could win it. And honestly I don't think anybody didn't win a title ever.

However crappy you may think it, it's still a title. It was defended in a ball pit thus losing its validity Yet Undertaker had a pretty strong reign as Hardcore champion

Tank Abbott never won a professional wrestling title. He was pretty good.

hard to say really......most guys have won a strap somewhere. Ill keep it WWF and then Ill say.........Mr Wonderful Paul Orndorff because he is the best guy(hands down)that didn't win a title of some sort during his WWF run.such a pity he got injured. That's a pretty bold statement man. Not that you're wrong as it's subjective, but you've got guys like Bigelow, Vader, Dusty, Snuka, Harley Race, Jake Roberts, Tatanka and Jerry Lawler (among others) who never won any titles in WWF. ya see...heres my thoughts on it.....and remember this is based on WWF tenures.... Lawler,Dusty& Race were past it when they joined Vinces troupe.IMO they were well out of contention for any titles and were never gonna win any..Race was brought in expressly to feed to Hogan for instance.but however that's not to say that Lawler(one of wrestlings 10 best all rounders)couldn't pull it out the odd time.same as the other two.Orndorff was in his Prime and burned up the ring regularly. Jake never needed a title IMO.....his entire gimmick seemed to be geared towards not needing or desiring them.in my book he would've looked strange as f*ck with one!! Bigelow & Vader are GREAT cases.both should've worn gold of some sort....I would've gave Bam Bam Yokos push & Vader shouldve been the one to beat Bret the night after IYH Final 4 and go to WM as champ against taker or won it in 96 as he was meant to.Orndorff just pips them for me though. I don't find Tatanka to be as good as Orndorff was. Snuka never entertained me man.always found him and his body of work to be be over praised.

I don't find Tatanka to be as good as Orndorff was. Snuka never entertained me man.always found him and his body of work to be be over praised. That's fair enough man, Orndorff was definitely the shizzle at the time. (I'm still pissed he isn't on 2K14, thanks a lot Mr. T). I still find it hard to believe that Lawler has never won any kind of title, considering the length of time he's been there. As well as his level of fame outside of the business (he's one of those guys that everyone has heard of). I'd still love him to win the WWE championship someday (so what if he's old). At the very least, Bigelow and Tatanka should have won the taggers over 1-2-3 Kid and Sparky Plugg. But obviously that didn't happen due to the Lawrence Taylor thing. I think Bam Bam would have DEFINITELY got the WWE title at some point in 95 or 96 if he didn't get pissed off with the Kliq trying to derail his career and leave. And I agree about Snuka, even though I listed him I've never even remotely liked him (I know a lot of people rate him though).

I don't even really know why or how it was so bad because there were some really talented guys in it and they were feuding with the likes of Luger and The Undertaker. A championship title is a championship title, so I was including them. Abdullah the Butcher was someone I thought was a serious contender for that distinction, but it turns out he's one over 20 belts in some capacity or another. I'm sorry, I meant I have no idea who to name since we are counting those titles. You forgot the comma. My guess is you were too busy staring at your sig... lol.

I'm gonna say Tatanka. Never won a title in WWF, ECW, NWA, WCW or AWA Tatanka held the NAWA Title, among other title belts regionally. See, the headline of this topic is confusing. It states "greatest wrestler to never win "any" title" But yet people are just talking about just in the WWE now.

I'm sure that every wrestler that has ever stepped in the ring (and certainly any that have been on WWE TV) has held a title in some region or Indy fed. I said Tatanka as he'd never held a title in a major promotion.

If we were going by just WWE guys I'd have to put Luger straight up there too. There's NO doubt in my mind that Luger should have got the strap at SS93, even if he lost it back to Yoko at Survivor Series.

Bad News was Stampede Wrestling North American Champion.
Luke and Butch held several Tag titles as The Sheepherders and The Kiwis.
Barbarian won the NWA 6-Man Tag title , WCW United States Tag Team Title,and was the last WCW Hardcore Champion.
how about Steve Lombardi/Brooklyn Brawler?
