RIP...

Air Boom are no longer Tag Team Champions.

I read on Wrestlezone that CM Punk beat Dolph Ziggler in a Champion Vs Champion match http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/245411- ... lts-112111 I am unsure though if the titles were on the line.

Apparently The Big Show came out with the I/C title in a match in Spain against Alberto Del Rio last week.

Well, that's what this article says. :lol:

WORLD HEAVYEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIPS
NWA World Heavyweight Championship (1952 ...

Shouldn't the WCW Cruiserweight Championship have a separate page to the WWE Cruiserweight Championship? I noticed when WCW was defeated at the 2001 Survivor Series and became no more, the WCW Cruiserweight Title became a WWE Title, but you just kept the title history on the same page.

I am just learning about pro wrestling history which took place before where my personal recollections kick in (the Attitude era of WWF and the Monday Night Wars). I have been studying the history of the WWE Championship, and I see that Buddy Rogers was awarded the first WWWF Heavyweight belt due to some sort of dispute over (to my understanding) Rogers dropping the NWA World Heavyweight belt to Lou Thesz on Jan. 24, 1963. ...

A nice article.
