TheTriple Crown Heavyweight Championship (三冠ヘビー級王座,Sankan Hebīkyū Ōza) is aprofessional wrestlingworld heavyweight championship in the JapaneseAll Japan Pro Wrestlingpromotion. The current champion is Kento Miyahara, who is in his seventh reign.

Title history

[edit]

The championship was established after the unification of All Japan's then-flagship title, thePWF World Heavyweight Championship, with theNWA United National Championship and theNWA International Heavyweight Championship. The titles wereunified on April 18, 1989, when NWA International Heavyweight ChampionJumbo Tsuruta defeated the PWF World Heavyweight and NWA United National ChampionStan Hansen.[1]

Unlike most unified championships, the Triple Crown was originally represented through the continued use of the three individualchampionship belts. From 1989 to 2000, the holder of the Triple Crown was also presented byNippon TV (AJPW's broadcaster at the time) with a large, globe-shaped trophy bearing the words "World Heavyweight Champion". The original title belts were returned to All Japan founderGiant Baba's widow Motoko in August 2013 and a new single title belt incorporating designs from the three original belts was made.[2] The new title belt, which featured three plates representing the three original title belts, was unveiled on October 27.[3] One of the plates includes the text "Jumbo Tsuruta Apr. 18 1989", representing the crowning of the inaugural champion.[4] There have been a total of 31 recognized champions who have had a combined 70 official reigns. Six men in history have held the championship for a continuous reign of one year (365 days) or more:Mitsuharu Misawa,Suwama,Kento Miyahara (who have each achieved the feat twice),Jumbo Tsuruta,Satoshi Kojima andToshiaki Kawada.
