TheWWE Championshipis aprofessional wrestlingworld heavyweight championshipinWWE,currently defended on theSmackDownbrand.It was the first world title established in WWE, at the time known as the World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF), having been introduced in 1963 as the WWWF World Heavyweight Championship. The WWWF, aNational Wrestling Alliance(NWA) territory, did not recognizeLou Thesz's victory over reigning NWA championBuddy Rogersand sought to create its own world title upon exiting the body.[a]The WWWF rejoined the NWA in 1971; however, one of the caveats of rejoining is that the championship would no longer be recognised as a "world championship", and only as a regional heavyweight championship.[1]The promotion was renamed World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in 1979 and ended its affiliation with the (NWA) in 1983, with the title also renamed to reflect the changes; it regained its world championship status upon leaving the NWA. In 2001, it wasunifiedwith the World Championship and became theUndisputed WWF Championship.[2][3]In 2002, the WWF was renamed World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) andsplit its roster into two brands,RawandSmackDown.[4][5]The title, now renamed the WWE Championship, was then designated to the SmackDown brand while WWE established an alternate world title known as theWorld Heavyweight Championshipfor the Raw brand. A third alternate world title, theECW World Heavyweight Championship,was reactivated for theECWbrand in 2006. It was vacated and decommissioned when the ECW brand disbanded in 2010.[6]

Current championCody Rhodes,who holds the title in tandem with theWWE Universal Championshipas theUndisputed WWE Championship

When WWE ChampionRandy Ortondefeated World Heavyweight ChampionJohn Cenaat theTLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairspay-per-view eventon December 15, 2013, in aTables, ladders, and chairs match,the World Heavyweight Championship was unified with the WWE Championship, resulting in the retiring of the former,[7]as well as the renaming of the latter to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. On June 27, 2016, the name was shortened back to the WWE Championship,[8]before assuming the WWE World Championship name on July 26, when the brand split returned. It became designated to the SmackDown brand and WWE again established an alternate world title known as theWWE Universal Championshipfor the Raw brand. In December 2016, WWE again shortened the title's name back to WWE Championship.[9]Since April 2022, the title has represented one-half of theUndisputed WWE Universal Championship,with the other half represented by the Universal Championship, but both titles have retained their individual lineages. Under the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship moniker, the title was moved to SmackDown in the2023 draftand Raw established a newWorld Heavyweight Championshipas an alternative title.

The championship is generally contested inprofessional wrestling matches,in which participants executescriptedfinishes rather than contend indirect competition.Some reigns were held by champions using aring namewhile others use theirreal name.Cody Rhodesis the current champion in his first reign. He won the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship (WWE and Universal Championships) by defeatingRoman Reignsin aBloodline Rules matchatWrestleMania XLNight 2 on April 7, 2024, inPhiladelphia, Pennsylvania.Following his win, the undisputed title's name was truncated to Undisputed WWE Championship.
