The MWA (Michigan Wrestling Association) World Heavyweight Championship is a backyard wrestling World Heavyweight Championship as recognized by the Michigan Wrestling Association. It was first awarded on November 14, 2010 to "The Underdog" Alec Rutledge, who defeated Skull Jr. and Karnage in a triple threat elimination match.
Background
On September 19, 2010, MWA was founded, and the planning of the first event, "Midnight Mayhem" started. Originally, the plan was to have roster member Skull Jr.'s National Backyard Wrestling Alliance World Heavyweight and International Heavyweight Championships be the featured titles of the federation, as TNA did with the NWA World Heavyweight and World Tag Team Titles from 2002-2007. However, this changed before the first event, and the plan changed to have the first MWA World Champ crowned (Skull's titles are still a part of the federation and will be defended in it, giving MWA two world championships). "The Underdog" Alec Rutledge defeated Skull and Karnage in a triple threat elimination match. However, before MWA's first "IMPACT" (the name of the weekly flagship show), the title was stolen by someone. It has been temporarily replaced. Alec successfully defended against Skull and Karnage again in a gauntlet match the next week, but lost to Karnage in a last man standing match on November 28. However, due to Karnage paying the referee to guarantee a victory for him, MWA has stripped Karnage of his reign effective December 8, and a match between Alec and Skull has been scheduled for the supercard "Snow Storm" to determine a new Champion on December 19.
