The Top 10 World Champions of 2015

As 2015 comes to a close, I’m inspired to take a look back at the calendar year in terms of world champions. Who was the definitive greatest champion of the past 365 days? Who was the least credible title holder? There’s only one way to find out! For the intents and purposes of this countdown, I’ve only included WORLD champions celebrated around the WORLD. Promotions included are: WWE, Ring of Honor, New Japan Pro Wrestling, AAA, and Impact Wrestling. I apologize in advance to the Global Force fringe, CMLL aficionados, or fans of independent wrestling—both in America and abroad—for not including the titles you hold so dear.
