The TNA X Division Championship is a title competed for in the Total Nonstop Action Wrestling professional wrestling promotion.
X Division
This championship is competed for by wrestlers of the X division, where a high-flying, high risk style of wrestling is used. Rather than emphasizing the fact that most wrestlers who perform this style are under 250 lbs (115 kg) by calling it a "cruiserweight division", TNA decided to emphasize the high risk nature of the moves these wrestlers perform by calling it the "X Division", making it a key attraction of the company.
The slogan for the X Division has been "it's not about weight limits, it's about no limits.."
Current champion
Samoa Joe is the current X Division Champion in his first reign. Samoa Joe defeated A.J. Styles at Turning Point on December 11, 2005.
Title history
Twelve different wrestlers have won the X Division Championship. Of them, five (A.J. Styles, Jerry Lynn, Matt Bentley (Michael Shane), Chris Sabin, and Frankie Kazarian) have won the belt at least twice. Styles is the only wrestler with more than two reigns, with a total of five.
