Champsgiving Tournament 2020: Best Wrestler to Never Win a World Championship in WWE History Round 1 | Smark Out Moment

Welcome to the third annual Smark Out Moment 2020 CHAMPSGIVING tournament!

For this edition, I wanted to switch things up. Instead of actually picking a best champion, we're going with people who didn't win a particular title.

The theme for this year is to pit WWE superstars against each other who have never won a world title in WWE/WWF and decide which one of them MOST deserved to have been a world champion.

The results from the qualifying round have determined not only which 16 superstars are in the tournament, but how they've been seeded in the bracket (along with a randomizer for anyone who tied votes with someone else).

A major note to mention, though, is that after the poll was put up, it dawned on me that it doesn't make much sense for currently active WWE wrestlers to be involved, as they could win a world title any random day. Thus, I removed Bobby Lashley, John Morrison, MVP, R-Truth and Shelton Benjamin from this list. If you weren't able to edit your responses in time to replace those votes for anyone else, my apologies, as those 5 votes wouldn't count toward anything. The next five highest on the list were bumped up to make the final 16.

We are now on Round 1's set of matches. Cast your votes below and decide what moves on to Round 2!
