Canadian International Heavyweight Championship
The International Heavyweight Championship is a professional wrestling championship that was most recently promoted by the American wrestling promotion Total Nonstop Action Wrestling.
It was originally the top singles title in the Montreal-based wrestling promotion Lutte Internationale. It was the successor to the Montreal Athletic Commission's MAC World Heavyweight Championship, which was retired after the Commission's promotion, the International Wrestling Association, closed in 1975. The title was promoted from 1976 until Lutte Internationale closed in 1987, upon which the title was retired.
In 2024, the title was revived by TNA by A. J. Francis, with the explanation that Francis purchased the rights to the title and declared himself champion. This occurred on June 15, 2024 in Cicero, Illinois during the Impact! tapings which aired on June 27. At The People vs. GCW show, PCO cut a promo in which he legitimately aired his grievances with TNA management, before attempting to destroy the TNA Digital Media Championship belt with a sledgehammer. After that, Digital Media Championship was vacated and the Canadian International Heavyweight Championship was subsequently dropped.
In 2025, it was announced that PCO would defend the title against Dan Maff in a House of Pain match at the Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling event Resurrection, with Billy Gunn as special guest referee.
