The All Asia Heavyweight Championship (Japanese: オールアジアヘビー級王座, Hepburn: Ōru Ajia Hebī-kyū Ōza) is a title owned and promoted by the Pro Wrestling Land's End promotion.
The title was originally created in 1955 in Japan Wrestling Association (JWA), with the inaugural champion crowned on November 22, 1955.

When JWA shut down in 1973, the title went inactive until being reactivated in All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW) in 1976 after New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) announced the creation of its own version of the title.
