Who Does AJ Styles Join In The ‘300-Day Club’ Of WWE Champions?

September 5, 2018

Yesterday WWE Heavyweight Champion AJ Styles joined eight other alum of the “New York squared circle” to hold the company’s #1 belt for 300 days straight. He joins Bruno Sammartino, Bob Backlund, Pedro Morales, Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, Kevin Nash, John Cena & CM Punk as the only men to accomplish the feat.

Long title reigns are great, especially when the belt’s lineage doesn’t get too screwed up and fortunately for the WWE’s main strap, it pretty much holds together throughout the years. Who would have thought that when Styles got to the company that he’d be apart of the 300-day club? Just adds to his (and the WWE Championship’s) legacy.
