im just here to say D Lo Brown is the greatest WWF European Champion hands down

Yeah, him Regal and Davey Boy are the ones I remember most, but D'Lo edges it because he made the belt so much fun. He was very inventive with his vignettes. He is pretty much the reason why I remember the title fondly.

lostpunkrock this list is a joke and they lost all credibility. They only wanted to push their British boys to the front. People may like regal now days but back in the 90’s he was universally hated. And not good heat I mean he was the bathroom break match. Bulldogs reign was forgettable. D-lo, x-pac, and Owen did so much more with the belt.

Why would the European title be a secondary title to a UK title though. What should eventually happen is NXT UK (and the title) be re-branded as NXT Europe, but they've just re-branded it from the WWE UK title to NXT, so I don't see it happening anytime soon.

DJDub88 the European title has always been secondary and while changing the brand’s name wouldn’t be a bad idea, NXT UK isn’t a bad name and the UK championship has been the definitive world title that the whole brand was built around. I understand that the UK is smaller than Europe but it wouldn’t make since to change the entire brand based off a mid-card title from the 90s. Just bring back the European Championship and make it NXT UK’S equivalent to the NXT North American championship

Thank for this content as always but especially right now. BIG LOVE.
I'm SHOCKED that the #3 person wasn't #1, TOTALLY thought they would be.
I really would like to see the European title reinstated, with all the European talent in WWE and the wider European fan base that's grown, I believe it's a more relevant title now than ever.
Adam Paccitti, D'Lo Brown should be number 1. Number 1: D'Lo Brown was remembered for his 4 reigns as WWF European Champion and was the first ever WWF EuroContinental Champion. He produced the best matches in the Attitude Era, an era when in-ring matches were bad and the matches that didn't involve the WWF World Championship would last less than 9 minutes. Because of that, D'Lo had to make sure those 9 minute matches he had for the European Championship would be great. His first title reign started off when he beat Triple H on an episode of Raw on July of 1998 with help from The Rock. Every time he won and carried the belt, he made it prestigious. Number 2: William Regal. Number 3: The British Bulldog was the first WWF European Champion and his match against Owen Hart to crown the first champion. But he rarely defended the belt on Raw and his most memorable match with the belt was when he infamously got screwed and lost the belt to Shawn Michaels at WWF 1 Night Only. His second reign was not memorable.

I know this was 9 months ago but its his opinion
What gives, Adam? In Triple H's entry, you also mentioned his 5 reigns as IC Champion, the last of which is under the EXACT SAME circumstances as RVD's lone European Title reign. I suppose I'll allow it for 2 reasons: the fact that the company did actually reactivate the IC Title, unlike the European Title, and also due to what you said at the end, "Your list, your rules." 🍻
@jeremyhegg9367
4 жыл бұрын
I'd say it was because Triple H had 4 other IC Title reigns before that to base his ranking on. RVD held the European Title only once and it was deactivated immediately afterwards. If he had another longer reign with the title beforehand, it would've made it easier to rank him.

D-Lo Brown was the greatest European Champion
Thank you for doing this list. The Europeans Championship was my favorite title growing up and it was always the highlight of my night getting to stay up late when I got to see it. Your list is so spot in the top five, I could have made it myself. Hey, how about doing a list for my other favorite title or the era, the Hardcore Championship? ;)
I love these videos I find them fascinating
The European Championship in '97 was great. It was on the same level --- if not slightly higher than --- the IC belt, with upper-mid carder Bulldog holding it and defending it against guys like Shamrock. That carried on into '98, with Owen vs Triple H at WM14 seeming like a bigger deal than Rock vs Shamrock. I loved D-Lo as the champ and so I hate to say it but his tenure with the belt and his feud with X-Pac are kinda what brought the title down to a lower-than-IC level. But for a good year and a half in '97 and '98, the European title was what the US title is now. Great memories.

How about a “Every WWE United States Champion ranked from Worst to Best”
Al Snow is a clever boy. By coming out in leather and having head have big hair he WAS from a European country... he was from GREASE ;)
I will always consider X-Pac the best European Champion. When I think back to the title, he is the the first person I think of besides Shane, then HBK of course (my favorite of all time). Man I loved those times haha...best time ever to grow up.
i really liked that title was the step for a tag wrestler start to shine in singles, nowadays its needed something to push slowly a wrestler into a star, i guess the early strowman had coulded be a champion of this style for being aclaimed for the people and give meaning to the title too
I think D'Lo Brown should top the list. But I honestly cannot say a bad thing about the two who top him.
Jesus Castillo is a Puertorican Wrestler who was a Legend in WWC (in PR) under the name Huracán Castillo. WWC was surprisingly pretty good wrestling for a over a decade late 80s/90s (probably even before that). CCC comes from there (and when back) his dad was the Man Carlos Colon. A lot of great WWF wrestlers went to PR and worked with Colon all the time, Ric Flair, Harley Race, Hulk Hogan, Terry Funk, Diamond Dallas Page, Scott Hall, Booker T, Samoa Joe, Curt Hennig, Pedro Morales, Macho Man, Kane,Dusty Rhodes among several others. BTW must of them if not all of them ended up loosing. Another Legend down there was Savio Vega who was know as Karateka Ninja TNT.
You should do the WCW tv title or ECW tv title but great vid I’ve seen all your vids
Besides the title for title bout with Owen (pretty good match, find it on YT), and laying down for HHH, did HBK ever defend the belt?

28:00, whether he wants to or not. Oh nostalgia.
You should do one of these for Hall of Famers.
I found myself saying “I sorta remember them holding the belt” then I realised by that I mean I may have seen them hold the belt on their shoulder or waist at some random point but don’t remember them winning it, losing it or defending it
This is your video so I don't blame you for not including RVD, however in my opinion if he won a European Championship match regardless if WWE recognizes it or not, he is a former European champion and does deserve recognition for such.
Even though it didn't represent the European theme, I still love this championship with all my heart, should have gone to smackdown in 2002, or be the top Mid-card title In NXT UK
23:00: Saturn, Guerrero, Benoit & Malenko are in the pic, but you noticed the blonde.
D’lo drown should be #1
Davey boy vs owen hart raw 03.03.1997 is the best match for the European championship technical bout.
I was wondering if you were gonna put my guy D-Lo in the top 3...not disappointed
God this title was my favorite as a kid if they bring it back should they put it on NXT UK?
Can you do a Women's Championship one? Not the 2015-present one, but the original belt we had up until 2010? Love this list though - miss the European belt!
I wonder if it's possible to do this list with the hardcore title?
Can we have a Every ROH/Progress World Champion ranked please?
Can you rank all the hardcore champs next
Two things to take away from all of these lists: #1 -- Because watching a supernova is less rare than watching Hogan lose clean #2 -- Everything weird that happens is because Vince Russo
DLo Regal and XPac are the 3 I most associate with the belt.
Finally I caught a video early

Thanks for this, boys. Stay healthy.
I wanted the authentic replica of this belt for x mas soo bad🤩
my fav European champion is dlow brown he some really good match with xpac and golddust . i have not watched all of the vid yet hope he is number 1
Lost to Regal and Bulldog. I understand the logic but I don't have to like it. But great list! Keep up the great work!
I reckon RVD should place in-between Spike Dudley and Test. While his Reign started and ended in less than a day, he won the European Championship in a Champion Vs. Champion Match with Jeff Hardy on RAW, and I remember it being another fun bout between the two. RVD became a dual Champion and the final European Champion, technically making RVD an undefeated European Champion. Suck on that Van Daminator, Shane!
As an Englishman I love Bulldog, but D-Lo Brown is hands down the best European Champion ever. His matches with X-Pac were incredible and I just picture him coming out with that dope Nation music with the belt before anyone else.
Please do a list of the World Tag Team titles
RIP Eddie Guerrero (1967-2005). I started to watch WWE in 2002 and I saw EG many times, to his last match against Mr. Kennedy.
