Mr. Perfect (1)

Yokozuna (8/30/93 to 1/23/94)
Yokozuna had a dominant 1993 by ending the career of Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania 9 and thus winning the 1993 King of The Ring, His 1993 Dominance culminated by winning the World Wrestling Federation Championship over The Hitman, before he captured the title. He was bodyslammed by Lex Luger, I'm keeping the American Made thing for a while. Yoko would feud with Luger in where Luger would chase after the WWF Championship, At the 1993 Survivor Series. Yokozuna retained the title in a Casket Match against The Undertaker while Luger won a sole survivor series Elimination Match between Team USA vs Team Foreign Fanatics. Lex Luger would earn a title match at the 1994 Royal Rumble to face Yokozuna for the title. The match would be stipulated in No Disqualifaction Rules with no Foreign Fanatics intereference at all. Luger would win the title by using the salt bucket and bodyslamming Yokozuna to get the win and capture the title.
Lex Luger (1/23/94 to 3/20/94)
After Luger's successful title win over Yokozuna at the 1994 Royal Rumble. The next night Bret Hart who recovered from a leg injury returned to the 1994 Royal Rumble Match and won the 1994 Royal Rumble Match by last eliminating Shawn Michaels. The next night on RAW. Luger would turn heel on Bret Hart similar to what Owen did at the Royal Rumble. At WrestleMania X. Bret will face off against Owen in the first match and against Luger in the main event. Owen wins, keeping the match the same. Bret will beat Luger for the title for the second time.
Bret Hart (3/20/94 to 8/29/94)
After winning the title at WrestleMania 10. Bret would survive numerous title defenses, at the 1994 King of The Ring, Bret's brother Owen would win the opportunity to gain a WWF Championship Match against his brother Bret. Bret wanted to avenge his WrestleMania loss to Owen Hart. At Summerslam. The two would battle off in a steel cage match with Owen doing the impossible once again defeating his brother Bret in a steel cage match at Summerslam with help from Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart.
Owen Hart (8/29/94 to 11/26/94)
Owen Hart did the unthinkable at Summerslam, not once did he beat Bret at the Grandest Stage of them all but finally won the big one over His Brother Bret at Summerslam. Owen stayed on as WWF Champion for three whole months, But Owen would eventually lose the title at a house show in Madison Square Garden to?, you guessed it Diesel. But the match didn't last 8 seconds, in my diary. It will last 10 minutes. The Bob Backlund Title reign will not happen.
Diesel (11/26/94 to 4/2/95)
Diesel who broke away from Shawn Michaels won the WWF Championship just three days after Survivor Series captured the WWF Championship over Owen Hart in 10 minutes, now Diesel did have a good reign as WWF Champion, at the 1995 Royal Rumble. He successfully defended it against Bret Hart, However Razor Ramon would become the first ever man to win the 1995 Royal Rumble at #1, now with Shawn Michaels at #2. He deserved a WrestleMania 11 opportunity and he got it, it would be Shawn Michaels, Razor Ramon and Diesel in the first ever Triple Threat Match at WrestleMania 11 with Razor Ramon winning the WWF Championship.
Razor Ramon (4/2/95 to 8/27/95)
WrestleMania was The Bad Guy's Time, Razor would hang on to the title retaining it against members of the Million Dollar Corporation in PPV's. At the 1995 King of The Ring, Shawn Michaels won the 1995 King of The Ring and earned a shot at Razor Ramon's WWF Title at Summerslam. The two would rekindle their rivalry in a Ladder Match similar to WrestleMania 10 for the Intercontinental Championship. This time history would not repeat itself as Michaels realized his boyhood dream by capturing the WWF Championship for the first time, we are letting the Boyhood Dream Moment come early at Summerslam.
Shawn Michaels (8/27/95 to 10/22/95)
After Summerslam, The Heartbreak Kid was untop of the world as World Wrestling Federation Champion, but just as he was ready to defend the WWF Title against his former nemesis Sycho Sid at In Your House 4 in October. In October of 1995. Michaels was attacked by marines, he was beaten down and injured and that forced Michaels to give up the WWF Championship before his reign got started.
Sycho Sid (10/22/95 to 10/22/95)
But Sycho Sid's reign as Champion did not last long because Razor Ramon would be the man that would dethrone Sid and end Sid's 15-minute reign as the World Wrestling Federation Champion.

Razor Ramon (10/22/95 to 1/21/96)
Razor would recapture the belt once more making him a 2-time WWF Champion. Razor would this time hang on to the title by the end of 1995 and start off 1996 as the WWF Champion. Razor's challenger at the 1996 Royal Rumble would be against Bret "The Hitman" Hart. This time Razor's second reign as WWF Champion was dethroned once again for good as Bret Hart recaptured the title for the third straight time.
Bret Hart (1/21/96 to 3/31/96)
After 17 months of losing the WWF Championship, Bret Hart was untop of the mountain once more, that same night. The Heartbreak Kid made his return to the 1996 Royal Rumble Match and won the whole thing and would go on to challenge Bret Hart at WrestleMania 12 for the title in the infamous 60-Minute Ironman Match and I think we know what happens next.
Shawn Michaels (3/31/96 to 8/18/96)
The Boyhood Dream once again came true at WrestleMania 12 when he captured the WWF Championship in a 60-Minute Ironman Match over The Hitman. Michaels would have some grueling successful title defenses until Summerslam 1996 rolled around when Michaels took on his biggest challenge, the 450-pound mastadon Vader. At Summerslam. Michaels fought his heart out but the big man Vader would not be denied as he defeated The Heartbreak Kid to win the World Wrestling Federation Championship.
Vader (8/18/96 to 3/23/97)
With Vader's win at Summerslam. Vader pretty much became a dominant force as the World Wrestling Federation Champion holding back challenger after challenger after challenger including Shawn Michaels at the 1996 Survivor Series at Madison Square Garden, Bret Hart in December and Shawn Michaels again at the 1997 Royal Rumble, but Vader's time would run out when The Undertaker won the 1997 Royal Rumble, by 1997. Vader dumped Jim Cornette and had Paul Bearer as his manager who betrayed The Undertaker in 1996. The Undertaker after 5 years of trying to gain back the most prestigious Championship would finally not be denied.
The Undertaker (3/23/97 to 8/3/97)
The Deadman finally was back in the Dark Days once again as the World Wrestling Federation Champion, he had an unique load of title defenses defending it against all comers including fighting off a secret that was given by The Undertaker's old manager Paul Bearer in which he revealed that The Undertaker killed his family in a fire. At Summerslam. The Phenom took on Bret Hart who had a recent change of attitude when he returned to the WWF after WrestleMania 12. At Summerslam, with Shawn Michaels as the guest referee. The deck was stacked against The Hitman who stated that if he lost he would never wrestle in American Soil ever again. The Hitman would eventually fight off the odds with Shawn Michaels inadverently hitting The Undertaker with a steel chair and Bret would win back the title for the fourth time and of course you know what would set up next!
Bret Hart (8/3/97 to 11/9/97)
Yes, I'm talking about the infamous moment in WWF History in where Bret remained the WWF Champion for a total of three months after Shawn had defeated The Undertaker with the help of The Undertaker's brother Kane in the first ever Hell in A Cell Match. Bret and Shawn would rekindle the rivalry, in 1997. There was a personal real life drama backstage between the two with the whole Sunny incident. Plus, Bret would have to leave WWF to go to WCW meaning that the New Generation Era would come to an end, and a new era would be born, the Attitude Era. The no more Say Your Vitamins, the Oooh Yeahs and the Power of The Warriors were no more. At the 1997 Survivor Series, the Montreal Screwjob went into effect and the rest was history, Shawn Michaels was now a 3-time World Wrestling Federation Champion. And the New Generation Era came to a head.
The Rebooking of the WWE Championship will continue with the Attitude Era.
