WCWA World Heavyweight Championship
- WCWA World Heavyweight Championship
The WCWA World Heavyweight Championship was originally called the NWA American Heavyweight Championship was the major title in World Class Championship Wrestling. When WCCW pulled out of the NWA in 1986, the championship was renamed the World Class Wrestling Association World Heavyweight Championship. The title was unified by Jerry Lawler with the AWA World Heavyweight Championship in 1989 and continued as the USWA Unified World Heavyweight Championship. World Class returned in September 1990 when the organization withdrew from the USWA, but the promotion ceased operations three months later. Kevin Von Erich is the official last World Class champion, winning the title on November 23, 1990; which turned out to be the last World Class card.[cite book | author=Royal Duncan & Gary Will | title=Wrestling Title Histories | publisher=Archeus Communications | year=4th Edition 2006 | id=ISBN 0-9698161-5-4 ] ]Title history
