14. Bob Backlund
It was a different time and a different era when Bob Backlund held WWWF and WWF gold in the 1970s and 1980s. He was a figure from the past when he rejoined the active WWF roster in the 1990s, and Backlund was eventually placed into a feud with Bret “Hitman” Hart. The comeback went from uneventful to historic when Backlund, with the help of Owen Hart, defeated Bret to win the WWF Championship. His title run lasted only a few days thanks to a powerbomb from Diesel, and it was the last time that Backlund would win a title as a member of the WWE.
