History

The XBW Championship was introduced with Nemesis as the inaugural pre-existing champion during the iteration of XBW in season 1 in 1999. Since Nemesis passed away, it became solely considered the XBW World Heavyweight Championship in commemoration to him and his reign. In season 2, Deathwarrent won the title and shortly defected to Jackass Championship Wrestling before the season went on hiatus along with the demise of the JCW. Within the same season, the championship entered a 24/7 one-time only extravaganza, where the title changed hands four times, one time which Ryan Stevens became champion for 23 seconds, the shortest reign in XBW history.

In season 3, while Spardis paid visit to XBW from Total Wrestling Federation Xtreme to kayfabe take down Jesse James in defiance, he had usurped the championship belt. At that time, Ryan Stevens carried a reign that eventually lasted 16 episodic events as the longest unrivalled reign. During season 4 in the return of Spardis after failing to achieve the XBW Title in a match against Stevens in his trip to XBW in season 3, he officially won it at episode 19 Hotter Than Hell from Stevens, marking the first time an outsider was crowned champion as he attempted to take it back to TWFX located in Minnesota. However, he was stopped by Reaper, who cashed in his Nemesis Memorial Cup Battle Royal opportunity achieved at In Memory Of that opportuned him to gun after any title of his choosings anywhere and at any time. In season 5, Deathwarrent won the championship at Total Chaos to possess the most reigns.

On March 15, 2009, a Triple Threat match between Ryan Stevens, Chris Phoenix and Deathwarrent for the XBW Title was held in a building, the first time the belt was ever defended and contested outside XBW Wrestling.
