, who is in his first reign.

Like most professional wrestling championships, the title is won as a result of a predetermined match. There have been 104 reigns among 51 wrestlers.[3]

History

X Division

The TNA

Slammiversary when the 280 lb (130 kg) Samoa Joe was allowed to challenge for the belt.[13][14] In October 2012, the weight limit was officially repealed when 237 lb (108 kg) Rob Van Dam challenged for, and eventually won, the title at Bound for Glory. In March 2013, the X Division was given a new set of rules, which meant all matches were wrestled in Triple Threat format, and a new weight limit of 230 lbs. This proved to be extremely unpopular with fans, and the rules and weight limit were repealed once again in August of that year.[15][16]

Speciality matches

The Total Nonstop Action X Division has multiple styles of match types used to showcase the talent within the division and to defend the TNA X Division Championship in more marketable matches. Three of the matches used in TNA are the Ultimate X match, The Steel Asylum, and the Xscape match.

  • The Ultimate X match was introduced in 2003.
    TNA Home Video.[18]
  • The Steel Asylum made its debut in May 2008 at TNA's Sacrifice PPV event, under the name "The TerrorDome".[19] It was used once again in October 2008 at their Bound for Glory IV PPV event, under the new and current moniker "The Steel Asylum".[20][21] As of March 2024, this match has only been used to determine the number one contender to the TNA X Division Championship.[19][21] The layout of the match involves the ring being surrounded by a giant red steel barred cage with a domed ceiling.[20] The only way to achieve victory is to escape the cage through a hole in the center of the ceiling.[22]
  • The Xscape match is the third specialty match primarily used in TNA. It is held annually at TNA's Lockdown PPV event in April—an all–steel cage format PPV event.[23][24][25][26][27] The first two Xscape matches were held to determine the number one contender to the TNA X Division Championship, while, since 2007, it has been contested for the X Division Championship.[23][24][25][26][27] The contest involves four to six participants. To win this match, two or more participants—depending on how many are involved in the encounter—must be eliminated by pinfall or submission leaving only two participants.[24] These two men then race to see who escapes the cage first to claim victory.[28]

Creation

The championship was created and debuted before the main event at the taping of TNA's second weekly PPV event on June 19, 2002; the event aired on June 26, 2002.[1] Later, A.J. Styles defeated Low Ki, Jerry Lynn, and Psicosis in a Four Way Double Elimination match to be crowned the inaugural champion;[29] this match was announced as being for the NWA X Championship on the onscreen graphic while the ring announcer stated it was for the "NWA–TNA X Championship".[1][30] Afterwards, the title was renamed the NWA–TNA X Division Championship and then shortened to just the TNA X Division Championship.[3] It is the oldest title in Impact Wrestling.

Option C

Option C is a concept in which the current X Division Champion may voluntarily vacate the championship in exchange for a World Heavyweight Championship match. It began in June 2012 when then-champion Austin Aries said that he was not satisfied with being just the X Division Champion, which led to then-General Manager Hulk Hogan offering him a match for the World Heavyweight Championship, but only if he first vacated the X Division Championship. Aries agreed to Hogan's terms, on the condition that future X Division Champions be given the same opportunity.

Unifications and outside defenses

Record 10-time champion Chris Sabin

In July 2002, the X Division Champion AJ Styles defended the title against Adam Jacobs and David Young at Ring of Honor's Crowning a Champion, the first defense outside TNA.[43] In May 2003, before the

Four Corners championship unification match to unify the X Division Championship with the WWA International Cruiserweight Championship.[3][44]
In Winter 2004, Petey Williams defended the title in various IWA-Mid South events.

During

El Generico, while once at The 2nd Annual PWG Bicentennial Birthday Extravaganza - Night One on July 9 against fellow TNA wrestler Chris Sabin.[48][49] In September 2005 at TNA's Unbreakable PPV event, the TNA X Division Championship was defended in the main event for the first time at a monthly PPV event; then-champion Christopher Daniels defended the championship against A.J. Styles and Samoa Joe.[50]

The title was once again defended in the main event of a monthly event at TNA's August 2007

TNA World Heavyweight and IGF's version of the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship.[51] This win made Angle the only in the history of TNA to hold every active championship at the same time; TNA World, X Division, and World Tag Team.[52]

On March 4, 2014, The title was defended in

Seiya Sanada.[53] On March 22, Sanada defended and retained the title on a Wrestle-1 show.[54]

In May 2007, the

NWA World Heavyweight and World Tag Team Championships that TNA had controlled since June 2002.[55] TNA then introduced a new TNA X Division Championship belt on the May 16, 2007 edition of TNA's online podcast TNA Today.[56][57][58] Jeremy Borash and Management Director Jim Cornette, TNA's on-screen authority figure at the time, unveiled the new belt and awarded it to then-champion Chris Sabin.[56]

On July 19, 2013, then TNA President Dixie Carter unveiled a new design for the championship, with blue accents to match the color scheme of the company.[59] On June 16, 2015, TNA tweaked the belt's design by recoloring its accents from blue to green.[60]

On August 18, 2017, the X Division Championship belt was given a complete overhaul to reflect TNA's short-lived change to the Global Force Wrestling moniker. On October 26, 2017, Trevor Lee was seen in a taped segment on Impact! with the title belt re-branded for Impact Wrestling. In 2020, Impact Wrestling redesigned the belt, putting a big red "X" on the center plate (a nod to the original belt), and made red the dominant color.

With the company's return to the TNA name in 2024, a new belt was introduced.

Reigns

Current champion Mustafa Ali

The inaugural champion was

A.J. Styles, who won the championship by defeating Low Ki, Jerry Lynn, and Psicosis in a Four Way Double Elimination match on June 19, 2002 at TNA's second weekly PPV event.[1][3] At 301 days, Austin Aries' first reign holds the record for longest in the title's history.[3] At less than one day, Eric Young's only reign, Chris Sabin's sixth reign and Rockstar Spud's second reign are the shortest in the title's history.[5] Chris Sabin
holds the record for most reigns with 10.

Mustafa Ali is the current champion in his first reign. He defeated Chris Sabin on February 23, 2024, at No Surrender in Westwego, Louisiana to win the title.
