List of current champions in Impact Wrestling
Impact Wrestling is an American professional wrestling promotion based in Nashville, Tennessee. Title reigns are either determined by professional wrestling matches or are awarded to a wrestler as a result of the culmination of various scripted storylines. There are two active singles championships and one active tag team championship for (primarily) male wrestlers, a singles and tag team championship specifically for female wrestlers, and an intergender tertiary championship.
Nine wrestlers currently hold the championships. The list includes the number of times the wrestler has held the title, the date and location of the win, and a description of the winning bout. The following is correct as of April 30, 2022.[1]
Overview
Men
At the top of Impact championship hierarchy is the Impact World Championship. The championship is currently held by first time title holder Moose, who invoked his Call Your Shot Gauntlet privilege to defeat Josh Alexander (who had just defeated Christian Cage to win the title minutes earlier) on October 23, 2021, at Bound for Glory.
The secondary title is the Impact X Division Championship. Trey Miguel is the current champion in his first reign. He defeated Steve Maclin and El Phantasmo in a Triple Threat match on October 23, 2021, at Bound for Glory to win the vacant title.
The Impact World Tag Team Championship is currently held by Violent By Design (Eric Young, Joe Doering, and Deaner) who are in their second reign as a team (Young's fourth individually). Young and Doering defeated The Good Brothers (Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson) on March 5, 2022, at Sacrfifice, with Deaner also recognized as champion under the Freebird Rule.
A wrestler who has held the World, X Division, and Tag Team Championships is recognized to have won the Impact Wrestling Triple Crown. If any winner of the Triple Crown has also won either the TNA Television Championship or the Impact Grand Championship (both defunct), they are also recognized to have won the Impact Wrestling Grand Slam.
