The XWA Lionheart Championship is the third tier/gimmick belt of XWA's second brand Desire. Once a man has won the belt, it is defended in every match that they are in. If it's a tag match, the man who makes the pin/submission for the victory is the champion, even if it's the champions own partner. This also applies to battle royals and the like. There has been one reign, and one champion with it's inaugural and current champion being Vladimir Strife who won it on the ninedy second Vendetta defeating Jared Jerusalem to win the belt.
