Dolph Ziggler was the inaugural champion. Overall, there have been 12 different reigns shared among 10 wrestlers. Mankind and Daniel Bryan have the most reigns as champion, with 2. Mark Henry holds the longest reign in the title's history, at 132 days, which also gives him the record of most combined days, at 132. Dolph Ziggler and Mankind are tied for shortest reign at 1 day.

Mankind was the final champion in his second reign. He defeated Bray Wyatt, Randy Orton, Daniel Bryan, Chris Jericho and champion Batista in an Armageddon Hell in a Cell match at WrestleMania XI on April 5th, 2015 to win the title for the last time. *Note that every match (other than when another stipulation was specified), in which the Hardcore Championship was defended, was a Hardcore match.
