UEFA Champions League Winners If A Team Could Only Win It Once

Imagine that UEFA changed the rules of the Champions League so that once a team had won it, they couldn’t win it again.

See if you can name the teams consequently named the new Champions League winners for each year.

So if a team finishing 1st had already won the UCL (as per the new rules), the team in 2nd would be declared the winners.
UEFA doesn't officially award 3rd/4th place etc. Check the comments for more information on my ranking.
Including the competition’s years as the European Cup

More information on the rules

The Champions League does not officially have teams finishing in 3rd, 4th place etc. In the event that the “new winner” is not one of the new finalists, it will pass down to the semi-finalist who lost to the actual winner, then to the other losing semi-finalist, then to the quarter-finalist who lost to the actual winners and so on.
