Winning a championship in WWE is a big deal, and some wrestlers have been more fortunate than others to win multiple championships throughout their careers. WWE has had several championships come and go, which has presented opportunities for wrestlers to get their hands on silverware. Another incentive for wrestlers to clinch major championships is becoming a Grand Slam Champion. The original version of becoming a Grand Slam Champion was winning a World Championship, the Intercontinental Championship, the European or Hardcore Championship (replaced by the United States Championship ever since 2003), and a Tag Team Championship.

WWE has had many legendary figures walk through the doors and cement their legacies with championship wins. Titles like the 24/7 Championship and the WWE Hardcore Championship have seen some wrestlers rack up their tallies with multiple wins with those particular titles despite reigns with those titles generally short.

Kingston moved into the tag team division with New Day and cemented his legacy as one of the best Tag Team Champions in WWE history. No one has held more Tag Team Championships than Kingston as he is a 15-time Tag Team Champion. Kingston’s a 23-time titlist, and it remains to be seen if he will add to his tally before he retires.
