All Superstars to hold WWE and US Title at the same time

Only a few stars over the year have been able to hold two singles titles at the same time

Holding the WWE World Championship in the company makes you the top star in company. But, another title makes it more special. The ultimate goal of being in the wrestling profession is to leave a lasting impact and become a champion.

However, some wrestlers have been fortunate enough to hold two singles crowns at the same time. The likes of Stone Cold Steve Austin, Batista, and John Cena, among others, have held simultaneously the World and Tag Team Championships at the same time.

WWE title was first introduced in 1963 from the events that begin from NWA. While 12 years later in 1975, NWA introduced the US Championship which has been still in WWE even after half a century over.

A double champion is often crowned when there is either a title fight or a title unification contest. Some wrestlers who held two singles titles at the same time actually defended both titles, albeit not simultaneously. When a wrestler has two singles belts at the same time, they can participate in various storylines, which makes for intriguing entertainment.
