An overnight sensation, Bruno Sammartino connected with not only fellow Italians, but also Latinos, Greeks and Jews, successfully bridging the gap in America's melting pot of wrestling fans. His legend grew when he defeated Buddy Rogers to become the second-ever WWF Champion. Bruno held the WWF Championship for nearly eight years, by far the longest reign of all time, a record for all professional wrestling champions, no matter the organization.
