In WWE history, winning the WWE Championship is supposed to cement a wrestler’s legacy. But sometimes, that moment of glory lasts only hours, minutes or even seconds. These brief championship moments often happen because of Money in the Bank cash-ins, immediate rematches, or shocking booking decisions. Some of the biggest names in wrestling history have experienced this strange record and, in this video, we look at the strange history of zero-day WWE and WWF Championship reigns where a superstar wins the title and loses it on the exact same day.
We’ll take a look at famous zero-day champions including Yokozuna, who defeated Bret Hart at WrestleMania IX only to lose the title minutes later to Hulk Hogan. We’ll also cover Randy Orton, who briefly won the WWE Championship in 2007 before dropping it to Triple H the very same night, and we'll look at when Triple H robbed Daniel Bryan of his WWE title reign when Orton decided to cash in Money in the Bank.
Zero-day title reigns are some of the most chaotic and controversial moments in WWE history. Whether it’s a shocking betrayal, a surprise cash-in, or a booking decision that changes everything in a single night, these champions barely had time to celebrate before the gold was gone.
