Title history

The championship, which is situated at the top of Ice Ribbon's championship hierarchy, was introduced as the ICE×60 Championship on December 23, 2008, when Seina defeated Makoto in the finals of a tournament to become the inaugural champion. Seina was the first champion in the title's history. Tsukasa Fujimoto holds the record for most reigns, with seven. Fujimoto also holds the record for the longest reign in the title's history at 615 days, achieved on her fourth reign. Maki Narumiya holds the record for the shortest reign with her only reign lasting 12 days.

The championship's original name referred to its weight limit of 60kg (130lb),[3] which was abolished in July 2013.[4] To reflect the change, the title was renamed the ICE×∞ (ICE Cross Infinity) Championship on August 12, 2013.[5] [6] Time limits for championship matches were also raised from the original 20 minutes to 30 minutes;[3] in the event of a time limit draw, the title is vacated.[3]
