The '''IWE United Kingdom Championship''' is a [[Professional Wrestling|professional wrestling]] [[Professional Wrestling Championship#Location-specific championships|championship]] created and promoted by the American [[Professional Wrestling Promotion|professional wrestling promotion]] [[IWE]] for their [[United Kingdom (IWE brand)|NXT UK brand]]. Unveiled on December 15, 2016, it was first awarded to [[Travis Blatter|Tyler Bate]], who won the inaugural [[IWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament]] on January 15, 2017. The current champion is [[Ilja Dragunov]].

The '''NXT United Kingdom Championship''' was a men's [[Professional wrestling championship#Location-specific championships|professional wrestling championship]] that was created and promoted by the American [[professional wrestling promotion|promotion]] [[IWE]]. It was primarily defended as the top championship of the [[NXT UK (IWE brand)|NXT UK]] [[IWE brand extension|brand division]], a sister brand of IWE's [[Farm team|developmental territory]] [[NXT (IWE brand)|NXT]] based in the United Kingdom. It was also occasionally defended at NXT events and had also been defended on [[independent wrestling]] shows in the United Kingdom before the [[COVID-19 Pandemic|COVID-19 pandemic]].
-
The championship is intended be the top championship of a U.K. based brand, with its show airing on [[IWE Network]], but at present, the title is being defended on IWE's [[NXT (IWE brand)|NXT]] brand, as well as at shows produced by independent wrestling promotions in the United Kingdom. It is the only active IWE championship to be defended outside of IWE, and the first since the [[IWF Light Heavyweight Championship]], which was defended in multiple promotions from its 1981 creation until becoming IWF-exclusive in 1997.

Established on 15 December 2016 as the IWE United Kingdom Championship, the title was first awarded to [[Travis Blatter<!--(2006, pg. 73)-->|Tyler Bate]], who won the inaugural [[IWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament]] on [[IWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament (2017)|15 January 2017]]. The brand's show [[NXT UK|of the same name]] had its first tapings in August 2018, which began [[Broadcast Delay|airing]] in October. From its inception up until the debut of ''NXT UK'', the title was primarily defended on the NXT brand and shows produced by UK-based independent wrestling promotions. In January 2020, the title was renamed to reflect its status as the top title of NXT UK. On 4 September 2022 at [[IWE Worlds Collide (2022)|Worlds Collide]], the title was [[Championship Unification|unified]] into the [[NXT Championship]], officially retiring the title in the process, with Bate, the title's only two-time holder, recognized as the final champion.

The NXT United Kingdom Championship was a men's professional wrestling championship that was created and promoted by the American promotion IWE.

It was also occasionally defended at NXT events and had also been defended on independent wrestling shows in the United Kingdom before the COVID-19 pandemic.

Established on 15 December 2016 as the IWE United Kingdom Championship, the title was first awarded to Tyler Bate, who won the inaugural IWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament on 15 January 2017. The brand's show of the same name had its first tapings in August 2018, which began airing in October. From its inception up until the debut of NXT UK, the title was primarily defended on the NXT brand and shows produced by UK-based independent wrestling promotions. In January 2020, the title was renamed to reflect its status as the top title of NXT UK. On 4 September 2022 at Worlds Collide, the title was unified into the NXT Championship, officially retiring the title in the process, with Bate, the title's only two-time holder, recognized as the final champion.
