The UWN World Championship is a professional wrestling world championship owned by the United Wrestling Network promotion. Similar to the "Traveling Champion" concept made famous by the NWA World's Heavyweight Championship, the UWN champion is recognized across the Network's affiliates.
Initially announced in 2014 as the "UWN World Heavyweight Championship", the title was re-introduced on October 13, 2020; along with the announcement of an eight-man tournament to crown the inaugural champion. One year later, on October 2, 2021, Chris Dickinson defeated Mike Bennett on UWN Primetime Live in the finals to become the first champion.
The current champion is Danny Limelight, who is in his first reign.
