History edit
On February 13, 1999, CZW debuted their version of a tag team championship, which they named the CZW World Tag Team Championship at the company's Opening Night event. Jon Dahmer and Jose Rivera, Jr. were awarded the championship at the said event, becoming the inaugural champions in the process.[1][2] Although the title is a world tag team championship, supposedly only intended for tag teams, a wrestler has held the championship by himself – Justice Pain.[1] Pain held the championship during his entire reign alone, from November 20, 1999 to January 8, 2000, when he lost it to The Thrill Kill Kult (Diablos Macabre and Midknight); the same team he defeated to win the championship.
Reigns edit
The inaugural champions were Jon Dahmer and Jose Rivera, Jr., who were awarded the championship on February 13, 1999 at CZW's Opening Night event.[1][2] At 668 days, The REP (Dave McCall and Nate Carter)'s third reign is the longest in the title's history.[1] Dahmer's and Rivera, Jr.'s only reign and 2 Girls, 1 Cup (Beef Wellington and Greg Excellent)'s first reign are tied for the record for the shortest in the title's history at less than one day.[1] The BLK-OUT (Sabian and Rukus) hold the record for most reigns, with five.[1] Milk Chocolate (Brandon Watts and Randy Summers) are the current champions, who are in their first reign. They defeated CMD (Desean Pratt and Boom Harden) on September 3, 2023, at CZW Limelight XX to win the titles.
