365 days ago, marked the start of a story. In that time, the 24/7 title has been held by a number of characters, has been defended in numerous matches, and created some stellar moments. To celebrate I'll be writing down my top ten 24/7 champions. I know I first posted this on Jun 11, but I'm counting the leap year.
Top 10 24/7 champions
For this list, I'll be including people have actually won the 24/7 championship.
10: R-Truth
Kicking off the list, I'm putting who is considered the corner stone of the 24/7 championship. While R-Truth hasn't been as active with the 24/7 title as he was IRL, I can't ignore all he's done for the 24/7 championship. Though he's the first to lose the 24/7 title in this story, he never stopped trying to get his baby back. Even waiting like six months before he can reclaim it back.
9: Lucy Loud
While every Loud sibling has held the 24/7 title at least once in this story, I'm giving the spot to the soft spoken gothic poet Lucy. With 2 reigns under her belt, she used her natural sneaking ability to avoid any potential challengers. But she's not afraid to defend her title in matches, like when she defended her title in a fatal 4 TLC match and in some offscreen house shows. Her last title reign ended at the hands of Jason Voorhees, the slasher of the Friday the 13th saga, which I though was pretty ironic since she loves all things horror. Now if only I had used a vampire.
8: Kofi Kingston
I'll admit, I LOVE Kofi Kingston! And I was overjoyed when he won the WWE title at WrestleMania 35, but it pained me dearly when he lost the title in an 8 second match to Brock... FUCKING... Lesnar of all people. But in my story that match ended quite differently, after Brock was manhandling Drake Maverick and pinning him for the 24/7 championship, this gave Kofi enough time to recover and deliver what I think should have been the ending series to that god awful match on the 1000th Smackdown episode. Five trouble and paradises, an SOS, and maybe a diving Boom Drop for reassurance. 1. 2. 3. Kofi retains, and becomes the new WWE 24/7 champion.
7: Solid Snake
Saying that this Foxhound agent is sneaky, is a gross understatement. For about a month, this guy has eluded everyone that tried and failed to hunt him down. Sneaking aboard a cargo plan then champ Zim was trapped on, he used his special training to incapacitate the alien and choked him out to become the 24/7 champion. His run culminated in a rematch from Death Battle against Sam Fisher in a grueling cage match littered by weapons.
6: Dipper and Mabel Pines
Yes, I'm putting this two together because they actually won the 24/7 title simultaneously. These two twins are so far the only two people in this story to be co-24/7 champions, their match against the unlikely team of Blossom Utonium and Brick Jojo may have ended in defeat, but was a match that will be forever remembered.
5: Jon Moxley
The now AEW World Champion Jon Moxley, was also a 2 time 24/7 champion. His rivalry with the maidens of Universe 2, particular Kakunsa and Roasie, saw him trading the 24/7 title with both girls which all ended with a massive brawl where Kakunsa invading Moxley's own home, proving that you're never safe even in the comforts of your own living quarters.
4: Drake Maverick
I'm putting Maverick above Truth in this list, mostly because he had more appearances than Truth and had won the title more times in this story. He started off like IRL as a desperate man to win the title so he can consummate his marriage, this even lead him to highjack the WWE title match between Brock Lesnar and Kofi Kingston, which resulted in him getting ripped apart by the beast incarnate. Later on he won the title while he was fighting in the Interim Cruiserweight championship tourney, where he was fighting for not only two titles but his job as well. That's dedication right there.
3: Katsuki Bakugo
This short-tempered explosive blonde has strived to be the very best at everything he does, but when he was the first eliminated in a triple threat match or the 24/7 title, he went on a hunt. With 4 title reigns and having vied for the 24/7 championship numerous times, and doing whatever it took to win it back lands him within the top 3 of the 24/7 champions within the year of this story's making.
2: Izuku Midoriya
The cinnamon roll of Class 1A has provided many moments during his time as 24/7 champion. Winning the 24/7 championship a total 3 times, right behind his frival (friend/rival) Bakugo. With the first winning the title from then AEW World champion Chris Jericho, after Le Champion tapped out Katsuki for the title. He then went to lose the title in a triple threat match after being pinned by Panty Anarchy, but thankfully he was able to win it back after the angel took him for some... fun times. The fact that he won the championship after getting himself laid, grants him major points on this list that puts him above Bakugo.
Before I get to my top pick, I want to share a few honorable mentions.

AN: Before I continue, be sure to leave a review if you have a champion I didn't mention. Also press thos favs and follows for more content.
1: KO Kincaid
Where to begin with KO. He's defended the 24/7 title in more matches than anyone who's won the 24/7 championship, and remains undefeated in sanctioned WWE matches. With multiple reigns under his belt he's competed in several match of the year candidates against a plethora of challengers, including a 6-pack extreme rules match, a ladder match, a steel cage, a 4-way tables to falls match, even in the elimination chamber where he had his leg, nose, and neck broken. And lets not forget when he won the 24/7 title in the freaking Royal Rumble Match where he also won the WWE title, which he's defended along with his 24/7 championship. He also held the Raw Tag Team championship with Kevin Owens while he held both titles, so that means KO was a triple champion holding the WWE title, tag team title, and the 24/7 title.
Today or tomorrow if you count the leap year marks the 1 year anniversary of 24/7 title madness, and what a year it's been. Stay tuned for next Monday where Kari Kamiya will defend the 24/7 title in a 6-pack challenge. I want to thank all who's faved, followed, and reviewed this story. It really means a lot, take care.
