right|150pxWWE is an American professional wrestling promotion based in Stamford, Connecticut, and the world's largest promotion. As in other professional wrestling promotions, WWE promotes several championships, with titleholders typically determined via the results of professional wrestling matches within scripted storylines. On rare occasions, a championship may be awarded to or stripped from a wrestler outside of a match, though these occurrences also fall within scripted storylines.
WWE currently divides its roster between three brands. Most wrestlers compete exclusively on a single brand (with select exemptions). WWE's two primary brands are Raw and SmackDown, collectively referred to as the main roster. NXT serves as the developmental brand (although it was considered a third main brand from 2019 to 2021).[1]
There are currently 17 championships in WWE divided among the three brands. Raw has a primary, secondary, and tag team championship for male wrestlers, and a singles championship for female wrestlers. SmackDown has two primary championships (jointly held and defended as an undisputed championship), a secondary championship, and a tag team championship for male wrestlers, and a singles championship for female wrestlers. NXT features a primary, secondary, specialty, and tag team championship for male wrestlers, with a primary and secondary championship for female wrestlers. There are two titles which are shared among all three brands—a specialty championship for male wrestlers and a tag team championship for female wrestlers.
As of,, among the three current brands, 20 wrestlers officially hold championships (including one double champion). This list includes the number of times the wrestler has held the title, the date and location of the win, and a description of title victory.
The American professional wrestling promotion WWE currently divides its roster into what the company refers to as brands. The two main brands that the company promotes are Raw and SmackDown, collectively referred to as the main roster. Wrestlers assigned to the two main brands exclusively compete on the respective weekly television programs, Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown, albeit with some exceptions. The Raw brand also has a supplementary online streaming program called Main Event. Monthly pay-per-view and livestreaming events feature wrestlers from both brands.
NXT is WWE's developmental brand, which is where newer WWE wrestlers perform to potentially be promoted to the main roster. Wrestlers assigned to NXT exclusively compete on the weekly television program, NXT, albeit with some exceptions, as well as the brand's supplementary online streaming program called Level Up. NXT also has its own major livestreaming events held periodically throughout the year.
There is also a weekly online program called Speed that streams exclusively on X and features wrestlers from all three brands.
For the men's division, Raw features a primary, secondary, and tag team championship, while SmackDown features two jointly held and defended primary titles (promoted as an undisputed championship) along with a secondary and tag team title. There is also an internet championship available to wrestlers from both brands as well as NXT and defended exclusively on the online program Speed.
For the women's division, each brand has a primary championship. There is also a tag team championship shared between both brands as well as NXT.
