Wrestler you never thought would be World Champion?

By Scott Keith on 18 December 2018


Who were you genuinely surprised to see winning a wrestling promotion's world championship that you never envisioned would get a run with their main title? There may be better examples, but Jack Swagger in 2010 in the WWE would be my pick.

That wasn't their main title, though. The gold standard (unless we're talking freakshow acts like Arquette, Russo and McMahon) is always The Miz.
