*(XWA) British Flyweight Championship (2007 – current)

Creation

The championship was created in 2005 as a title belt for the smaller wrestlers in the company. The promotion's "flyweight" wrestlers, as they were known entered in an 8-Man Single Elimination Tournament to crown the first champion.8TeamBracket | RD1=First Round| RD2=Semifinals| RD3=Final

Ross Jordan was awarded the final match against Spud after the referee stopped the contest due to an injury to Spud's leg. This controversial ending would see Jordan crowned the first FWA Flyweight Champion.

Current status

Spud defeated El Ligero in a Last Man Standing match on July 05th, 2008, at "XWA Vendetta" to win the British Flyweight Championship for the first time.
