History

The Global Hardcore Crown Openweight Hardcore Championship was created in March 2004 when Jun Akiyama declared himself champion as a way to liven up the Pro Wrestling Noah regional tours.[1] In 2007, it was announced that it would be reformed into a tag team title, continuing with the same lineage as the original belt. Later in 2007, it reverted to being a singles championship. Kentaro Shiga, who was the fifth champion before the reforming into a tag team title, was still recognized as such (along with his tag team partner, Kishin Kawabata), even though it was vacated to be put up for grab in a tournament, which they eventually won.[2] On November 19, 2007, Kawabata defeated Shiga to reunify the title.[3] The title was deactivated after ninth champion Kenta Kobashi suffered an injury in December 2009, forcing him to vacate the title.

In October 2023, it was revealed by Nosawa Rongai that Pro Wrestling Noah would bring the belt as the newly created GHC Hardcore Championship with a separate lineage. Masato Tanaka won the revived title on October 23, 2023, at Monday Magic ep. 2, by defeating Ninja Mack.[4]
