EAW World Heavyweight Championship

The EAW World Heavyweight Championship is a professional e-wrestling world championship in Extreme Answers Wrestling (EAW). It is currently part of the Showdown brand and is one of the two major championships, complimenting the EAW World Championship on the Showdown brand. It was first established in January 2008 when EAW extended itself into two distinct brands. With the EAW World Championship going to the Showdown brand originally in 2008, EAW created the EAW World Heavyweight Championship to fill the role of first tier championship on the Dynasty brand. Since then, the EAW World Heavyweight Championship has been held by many notable competitors including Hall of Famers and other notorious extremists.

Origin
The first EAW World Heavyweight Championship Match took place on an episode of Dynasty where Jaywalker took on Hardy Boyz to crown an inaugural champion. Jaywalker would defeat his opponent to become the first World Heavyweight Champion in EAW history.

Prominence
The EAW World Heavyweight Championship has been one, if not the, most sought after prize in all of EAW history. Most of the Hall of Famers that have been inducted, future stars that have risen to the pinnacle of the industry, have all held this championship at least once. There have been only four (4) vacancies in the title's prestigious history. The championship began as Dynasty's greatest prize and a response to the EAW World Championship. It wasn't until Mister K won the championship from Jaywalker that the championship was brought over to Showdown. Ever since that night, the title has been a mainstay on the Showdown roster, having the founder CM Banks wins the championship, been with HRDO's retirement, Robbie V becoming the champion just to have it taken away from him, the rise of current chairman Dark Demon, the historic fourth title reign of Jaywalker, and more until the moment Mr. DEDEDE was drafted to Dynasty bringing the championship back to its roots.

Reigns
The inaugural champion was Jaywalker when he was able to defeat Hardy Boyz on Dynasty. There have been nineteen (19) different official champions, with Jaywalker having the most reigns with four individual reigns. The longest reigning EAW World Heavyweight Champion is Dark Demon, who held the championship for approximately eight (8) months (Between May Showdown and Road to Redemption). The shortest reigning Answers World Champion was Mr. Insult who held the championship for three (3) minutes as he was later cashed-in on by Captain Charisma. The current champion is, Mr. DEDEDE, who is reigning in his second tenure as EAW World Heavyweight Champion in his career. He won the championship at Pain for Pride Seven when he defeated Mikado Sekaiichi in a match taglined "Battle of the Gods".
