The UWA World Tag Team Championship is a tag team professional wrestling championship created by the Mexican Universal Wrestling Association (UWA) and defended there until the UWA closed in 1995. After the UWA's closing, the title was inactive until 2008, when El Dorado Wrestling revived the title. On March 26, 2008, Kagetora and Kota Ibushi won the title in Tokyo, Japan at El Dorado's Eye of the Treasure event, defeating Mazada and Nosawa. It has since been defended in several promotions, including Kohaku Wrestling Wars, Michinoku Pro Wrestling and Union Pro Wrestling. The current champions are Ikuto Hidaka and Minoru Fujita. 19 different teams have held the championship, combining for 26 total reigns. Being a professional wrestling championship it is not won legitimately; it is instead won via a scripted ending to a match or awarded to a team because of a storyline.
