2. Shortest: WWE Championship – 6th Reign (2010)
Elimination Chamber 2010 must have felt like deja vu for John Cena. Big Match John had just survived an Elimination Chamber match to capture his sixth WWE Championship reign at Sheamus’ expense. However, Cena’s celebrations were abrupt as the chairman of the Board, Mr. McMahon, granted Batista an impromptu WWE Championship match. Cena was in no fit state in his attempt to retain the WWE Championship.
Batista was fresh, seizing the opportunity presented. The Animal decimated Cena with ease, and he executed a jaw-dropping Batista Bomb to become a six-time WWE world champion. Cena’s shortest championship reign in his WWE career lasted just three minutes and 34 seconds.
