Did he even have any successful defenses? He won it at Fanasticamania, so that's pretty drat short for a CMLL run...

Wait but was the original Lawler quote that they were doing 2 PPVs each month or just that they were having brand-specific PPVs again? Do we know that it's not just like the last split where they rotated off the existing PPV schedule?

There was no quote, it was just "this guy says Lawler said it". That's the only source on this.

Fitting that WWE would bring in the Roman Reigns of Chikara.

Hey, they at least never put a belt on Lince.

That was the run where Orton got pinned clean by Kofi Kingston, who was a Zack Ryder-level jobber at the time. Orton's run was pretty much utter garbage except for EC and WM matches.
I know we throw around the term "jobber" like jobbers get thrown around by the Big Dog, but the Orton/Kofi feud was in the fall of 2009, not long after he dropped the US title which he successfully defended on PPV and he beat Jericho clean on TV. You could go "who did he beat in these PPV matches, jobber-rear end job geek motherfuckers like Carlito and Regal and Matt Hardy and Chris Masters and Miz and assorted other pieces of jobber poo poo?" and sure, they're all jobbers. But they're not Zack Ryder level jobbers. Don't be cruel to Broken Matt. Kofi was getting screen time and angles consistently throughout 2008 and 2009, which is more than Ryder's gotten ever outside of that Kane/Eva/Cena thing he played fourth wheel in.

Oh wow, I forgot all about that 2014 match. Never mind.

He's talking about the time Kofi beat Randy in 2014 when Randy was WWE champ, during that time Kofi had barely been on tv

He may be the man with the plan, but has he taken into account that Tajiri's running some kind of scheme? :ohdear:

he defended the belt four times, such is the benefit of having one of cmll's favorite titles in a promotion that now has 4 shows a week to fill time on

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

None of you are mentioning the important fact that whilst Brian Kendrick may be competing, where is THE Brian Kendrick?

Also, do you remember that multi-man timed match where The Brian Kendrick was technically World Champion, untill HHH, (I think), stole it from him with only a minute or so to go?
