The CZW Global Tag Team Titles History

The North American Tag Titles were created after the shows were drafted for and split up. It was announced the titles would be decided on the June 5th edition of War Zone, in a four way dance. Ace King & El Pablo were the winners in that match, which took place in Seattle. They defeated The Samoan Wrecking Crew, Dusty Davis & Buck Evans, and The New Night Terrors.

Announced during CZW's flagship PPV, HATEWAVE, the North American Titles changed names to the GLOBAL tag titles and raised their image. Ace King and El Pablo are your first ever Global Tag champions as well. Later on in that evening, however, they lost the titles to two Anarchy Rising members in Matt Covey and Alan Fiscus.

Months passed, as Fiscus and Covey evolved in Whole Damn Show members, which includes four other men. They implemented the "free bird" rule, where any two men can defend, and held the belts well into the new year until The murderous brother team of Total Mayhem won them in a three way, also involving Idolized.

Mortius won the tag gold in a handicapped Inferno match, which left all three men scarred and burnt, at Volatile Day in Austin, Texas.

After Mortius introduced Akumas, they reeked havoc to the point that staff made their tag title match against Idolized not only for the belts, but for their CZW careers as well... and they lost, having to say goodbye to the CZW.

Idolized held the belts until Rob Wright and KING, formerly Mike King, of the Next Generation beat them on June 15th, 2009. On September 6th, the team of Krimzon Blaze and Mike Monroe defeated Rob Wright and KING for the belts, one week after Hatewave II.

After the re-emergence of CZW after nearly going into bankruptcy in October of 2009, the company bounced back in a huge way. Mike Monroe then decided to do something that was always on his mind, and that is resurrect his Beautiful Agony faction. His tag team partner and co-champion Krimzon Blaze, however, declined to join. Therefore the two men decided to each get a partner and fight for the belts and let the best team win at There Will Be Blood, CZW's two year anniversary pay-per-view. The result? Mike Monroe and Eddie Rowan, better known as Monrowan, won the belts.

Monrowan held the titles until Road To Glory III, where stablemates Brian Blaze and Johnny Kerosene, also known as The Spectacle, defeated them when Havok interfered on Monroe without Kerosene realizing it.

In Trenton, NJ, The Spectacle faced off against #1 contender Alex Kaelin and a very unexpected guest tag partner in Ian Chadwick. Alex was displeased, as his former partner Kris Kash attacked who he had planned. Alex ended up walking out, and the Spectacle retained the belts.

On CZW's first full tour of Australia, the first stop was Sydney. The Spectacle successfully defended the belts against Youthful Aggression's Brian Kirkland & Ryan Shane, but not without controversy... as the man pinned was actually Kirkland's bodyguard, Shaw.

To ruin the unusually peaceful WHC contract signing between Eddie Rowan and Mortius, Derek Damage booked an impromptu match between them and the Spectacle for the titles in Perth. After a mis-communication between Eddie and Mortius, The Spectacle found themselves retaining the belts once again.

The Spectacle definitely set the record for longest reign, and held the belts all the way up to Nov. 15th, when in a three way dance, the team weren't even the ones who got pinned in order to lose their belts. The first-time of teaming up Rosman Ballard & Waylon Krew won the match, beating Spectacle and Fire & Ice when Krew pinned Waters due to some Ashley Valentine interference back fire.

Ballard and Krew held the belts until CZW was bought-out and dissolved by WCCW in January 2011, and, with neither man employed by the company at the time of its rebirth in 2012, a tag-team triple-header was staged at that year's Horrorcore iPPv - a decision fueled largely by the addictive effect of nachos on the human body (don't ask). With CZW under attack at the time from both Ryan Shane's Uprising stable and Mike King's M2D Windows faction, all three parties found themselves represented; Brian Blaze and Matt Covey attempting to bring the gold to the Uprising, Daniel Ward and Joshua Newsome seeking to take it to Windows. In the end, however, it was CZW who was left standing tall, as Eddie Rowan and Spencer Pierce - known collectively as The Gunslinger Saints - picked up the win courtesy of a Psych Out on Ward.

However, the Saints soon found themselves slighted by the Uprising once again, as Brian Blaze and his new companion Christien Belanger stole the title belts during an edition of Overdrive! This led to a match being booked at CZW's new flagship iPPV, Event Horizon on December 24th; a match that would eventually see the Uprising capitalize on a mistake by Rowan and take possession of the belts legitimately.
