The TNA Grand Championship is a professional wrestling championship owned by the Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) professional wrestling promotion. It was introduced at the August 13, 2016 taping of TNA's television program Impact Wrestling.
History
The title was introduced at the August 13, 2016 tapings of TNA's television program Impact Wrestling after TNA President Billy Corgan announced that the TNA King of the Mountain Championship would be deactivated and retired in favor for the new championship. Corgan also announced a 8-man single elimination tournament that would feature new rules that would apply to the title. The new rules would be similar to how bouts were contested in professional wrestling in Europe in which each match will consist of three timed rounds, with a team of judges to award the win based on points, if there is no winner via pin or submission within the time limit. The finals took place at Bound for Glory, with Aron Rex becoming the inaugural champion by defeating Eddie Edwards (replacement for the injured Drew Galloway).
Rules
- Three 3 minute rounds, with special event matches going 5 minutes
- 10 point must system
- Judging categories: Physicality, aggressiveness, controlling the action
- Wins can happen anytime via pin or submission
- If there is no winner after three rounds, a winner is decided by judge's decision
