All 9 Ring Bearers from Lord of the Rings in the Power Ranking – Who resisted the temptation best?

Place 1: Sauron

No one could ever handle the One Ring as well as its creator himself. Sauron forged the Ring with the intention of being the only ring bearer. He was that for a very, very long time until he was defeated by the Last Alliance and lost the Ring.

Even before the creation of the Ring, Sauron was already corrupt and evil. He was not possessed by the evil power of the Ring – the Ring was evil because of him. He could control the power of the Ring just as he intended. Therefore, Sauron is the undisputed first place in this ranking.  

• Had the Ring for: 1,840 years
