| - | [[RPK]] of [[Hybrid Championship Wrestling|Hardcore Championship Wrestling]] and [[Skull Jr.]] of [[Total Hardcore Wrestling]] met on the [[Global Backyard Wrestling News]] forums sometime between late June and early July 2008. Skull's fed was to close on the 12th of July, and he thought he was going to be retired after the event. The two scheduled a Best 2/3 Falls Match on July 19th, though it was canceled due to location problems and too much regulation. After a small period of verbal conflict, the two reconciled in September and scheduled the same match for that November. [[Cam]], the owner of GBYWN, gave the two permission to create a Championship for the match, to which it was named the Michigan Heavyweight Championship, representing the wrestlers' home state. After being delayed from November 1 to 8 to 15 to 22, the match was finally set to happen on the 29th. The match ended up being horrible. Skull Jr. has stated many reasons as to why he thinks it went wrong. RPK won the match and title. The match was criticized by the members of the forum, leading most to believe Skull wasn't a good wrestler, as it was his first on tape. A good match however happened on January 10, with HCW wrestler AC thrown into the mix, but the damage was done. In a GBYWN board of directors meeting on January 19, Cam declared the title defunct. HCW continued to recognize the belt as the "Michigan Heavyweight Championship". Sick of the ridicule, Skull quit using GBYWN's forum on January 21 and founded the [[NBYWA|National Backyard Wrestling Alliance]] on the 22nd. The belt was christened the NBYWA International Heavyweight Championship the same day, as it remains now. It was the first belt to go from one community to another. The belt remained with RPK until November 15, 2009, when HCW got rid of title when it re-branded itself. This caused Skull to vacate the title and award it to Mike Mello of V For Victory (VFV) the next day. | + | [[RPK]] of [[Hybrid Championship Wrestling|Hardcore Championship Wrestling]] and [[Skull Jr.]] of [[Total Hardcore Wrestling]] met on the [[Global Backyard Wrestling News]] forums sometime between late June and early July 2008.

The NBYWA (National Backyard Wrestling Alliance) International Heavyweight Championship is a backyard wrestling International Championship as recognized by the National Backyard Wrestling Alliance. It was first awarded on November 29, 2008 to RPK who defeated Skull Jr. in a Best 2/3 Falls Hardcore Match.
Background
RPK of Hardcore Championship Wrestling and Skull Jr. of Total Hardcore Wrestling met on the Global Backyard Wrestling News forums sometime between late June and early July 2008. Skull's fed was to close on the 12th of July, and he thought he was going to be retired after the event. The two scheduled a Best 2/3 Falls Match on July 19th, though it was canceled due to location problems and too much regulation. After a small period of verbal conflict, the two reconciled in September and scheduled the same match for that November. Cam, the owner of GBYWN, gave the two permission to create a Championship for the match, to which it was named the Michigan Heavyweight Championship, representing the wrestlers' home state. After being delayed from November 1 to 8 to 15 to 22, the match was finally set to happen on the 29th. The match ended up being horrible. Skull Jr. has stated many reasons as to why he thinks it went wrong. RPK won the match and title. The match was criticized by the members of the forum, leading most to believe Skull wasn't a good wrestler, as it was his first on tape. A good match however happened on January 10, with HCW wrestler AC thrown into the mix, but the damage was done. In a GBYWN board of directors meeting on January 19, Cam declared the title defunct. HCW continued to recognize the belt as the "Michigan Heavyweight Championship". Sick of the ridicule, Skull quit using GBYWN's forum on January 21 and founded the National Backyard Wrestling Alliance on the 22nd. The belt was christened the NBYWA International Heavyweight Championship the same day, as it remains now. It was the first belt to go from one community to another. The belt remained with RPK until November 15, 2009, when HCW got rid of title when it re-branded itself. This caused Skull to vacate the title and award it to Mike Mello of V For Victory (VFV) the next day. Skull won it at THW 22/NBYWA 1 by forfeit against Karnage, due to Karnage's mother being in the hospital. A re-match was scheduled for a week after against the two because of it.
