CM Punk breaks new record as Champion

[LionDen]

With it now being January 1st, this means 2012 was an entire calendar year(Jan. 1 - Dec. 31) where the WWE Championship did not change hands one time. The last time this happened was in 1987 when Hulk Hogan went the entire year as WWF Champion. Also, 2012 was a leap year. The last time there was a leap year without one WWF Title change was 1980 when Bob Backlund went the entire year as Champion.

That's pretty crazy. I'm honestly surprised they let him break all these records. I still don't believe that he's buddies with Vince.

Means that The Rock is the Special One to end the longest title reign in 25 years...now that's what I call a present from WWE to him
