WCW Tag Team Championship



During the Classic Era, the WCW Tag Team Championship was the top title in the Tag Team class of World Championship Wrestling.

History
Having purchased Jim Crockett Promotions in 1988 and rebranding the promotion as World Championship Wrestling, it was determined that beginning in 1991, all Championships in the promotion would be recognized as WCW titles with the lone exception being the NWA World Heavyweight Championship though by July they would have their own WCW Heavyweight Championship as well. This rebranding of titles included the World Tag Team Championship, now the WCW Tag Team Championship. At the time of the title rebrand, the champions were Doom.

Between July 1992 and August 1993, both the WCW and NWA World Tag Team Championship titles would be defended together, thanks to the Miracle Violence Connection winning both. In September 1993, WCW broke off from the National Wrestling Alliance for good with Arn Anderson and Paul Roma being champions at the time. They would continue to be WCW's Champions while relinquishing the NWA titles.

In 1999, the Jersey Triad had the titles and consisted of three members, Bam Bam Bigelow, Chris Kanyon, and Diamond Dallas Page with WCW allowing any two of the three to defend the Championship.

Disco Inferno has the distinction of being listed as Champion despite neither being in the match where it was won or lost. General Rection substituted as Alex Wright's partner when the titles were won and days later, it was Elix Skipper substituting when the titles were lost.

The final champions of the Era were Chuck Palumbo and Sean O'Haire after WCW was purchased by the World Wrestling Federation and specifically, by Shane McMahon.
