List of WWC Universal Heavyweight Champions

Locally, it is exclusively defended in WWC, but has made several appearances in foreign promotions during international tours.

[1] Being a professional wrestling championship, it is won via a scripted ending to a match or awarded to a wrestler because of a storyline.

Title changes that occur on WWC's television program Súperestrellas de la Lucha Libre usually air on tape delay and as such are listed with the day the tapings occurred, rather than the air date.

[2] Within a year, the title was renamed "CSP Universal Heavyweight Championship" following a storyline where titlist Carlos Colón defeated NWA World Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair in a match to determine which title had supremacy.

It has remained under this name ever since, but due to copyright concerns it was briefly renamed "Capitol Heavyweight Championship" when the IWA gained possession of the belt on January 6, 2008.
