It is one of two world titles in the WWE, alongside the WWE Universal Championship that was created for their flagship SmackDown brand as a result of the 2016 draft. The original world title of WWE was established in 1963 as the WWWF World Heavyweight Championship. TheWorld Heavyweight Championship was then unified with the WWE Championship at WrestleMania XXVIII on April 1, 2012.

The WWE Universal Championship is a world heavyweight championship created and promoted by the American professional wrestling promotion WWE on the SmackDown brand. It is one of two world titles for WWE’s main roster, alongside the WWE Championship on Raw. The current champion is Brock Lesnar, who is in his first reign.
WWE introduced the Universal Championship in 2016 at SummerSlam as a replacement for WWE’s original world heavyweight championship, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, which was retired. The inaugural universal champion was Finn Bálor, who defeated Seth Rollins in the finals of a tournament at SummerSlam to become champion. The name “Universal” refers to the championship being open to wrestlers from Raw and SmackDown (the two roster brands of WWE).
WWE Intercontinental Championship
The WWE Intercontinental Championship is a professional wrestling championship created and promoted by the American professional wrestling promotion WWE on the SmackDown brand. It is one of two secondary titles in the WWE, complementing the WWE Championship on Raw. The current champion is Big E, who is in his second reign.
The title was introduced in 1979 by Pat Patterson, with the name “Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship”; it was confirms as “Intercontinental Championship” in 1988. The lowest ranking title at the time, it has been termed as a “stepping stone” to a top championship such as the WWE or Universal Championship. In 2002, due to the brand extension, it became exclusive to SmackDown! and Raw ceased to recognize it; this ended in 2011 when Raw created its own secondary championship, the WWE United States Championship while SmackDown started recognizing the WWE Tag Team Championship as its own secondary title. In 2017, following the reintroduction of the United States Championship on Raw due to Brock Lesnar vacating that title, both brands now have their own secondary titles once again.
WWE Intercontinental Champions have appeared in main event matches at WrestleMania several times throughout its history. The first Intercontinental Champion was Pat Patterson, who won a tournament to crown the inaugural champion on September 1, 1979; he held onto the title until 1980 when he vacated it due to injury. Ken Patera became champion that same year after winning a battle royal and held onto it until 1982 when he was disqualified against Tito Santana; this marked the beginning of Santana’s first reign with the title which lasted for almost two years. Pedro Morales also had a lengthy first reign which lasted from January 3, 1981 until December 8 of that same year; he won his second and final reign in December 1983 which lasted slightly less than three months before losing it back to Patera at Madison Square Garden in March 1984.
Patera’s second and final reign ended later that year when he was defeated by The Honky Tonk Man in June 1984; Honky Tonk Man set a then-record for longest reigning Intercontinental Champion that stood for nearly 29 years after holding onto it for 64 weeks until losing it to The Ultimate Warrior at SummerSlam 1988. The Honky Tonk Man’s lengthy reign established him as one of wrestling’s most prolific villains of 1980s pop culture; his iconic Elvis Presley-inspired gimmicks and arrogant attitude produced huge merchandise sales during his time as champion and made him one of that decade’s top stars despite never becoming World Champion.
Bret Hart became champion shortly after The Ultimate Warrior lost it and held onto it for just under five months before losing it back to Honky Tonk Man; Hart had another brief stint with the title later that year before losing it back to Honky Tonk Man yet again in February 1989 only for Hulk Hogan to defeat Honky Tonk Man later that month and begin one of his many record-setting runs as champion.

The champions of both were then able to compete for it exclusively on pay-per-view (PPV). The first Undisputed Champion was Brock Lesnar, who defeated then-World Champion Kurt Angle and then-WWF Champion The Rock on December 9, 2002 at Vengeance. This ended The Rock’s seventeen week first reign as champion while Lesnar became only the fifth person to win both world championships in professional wrestling history.
In 2006, WWE introduced two new top level singles championships: the ECW World Championship and the WCW Championship—to represent Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) and World Championship Wrestling (WCW), respectively—making it once again impossible for one superstar to hold all three titles simultaneously; however, at that point there were still three separate entities within WWE as ECW was presented as its own third brand until 2010. As a result of the 2009 Draft Lottery held during that year’s draft on April 13, 2009—ECW ceased operations later that month when its last broadcast aired on Syfy—the title became exclusive to SmackDown which made it possible for one superstar to hold all three titles at once but this scenario never happened in practice; this situation ended following WrestleMania XXVII when CM Punk defeated John Cena for both WWE titles thus unifying them into one singular championship after eleven years with Cena subsequently holding this title under its current name becoming its first ever undisputed champion while Punk became only its second ever concurrently holding all three major championships after Lesnar did so in 2002.

When WWE was formed in April 1999, it contained recognitions from various independent professional wrestling promotions including Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), Smokey Mountain Wrestling (SMW), and World Class Championship Wrestling (WCCW). As part of WCW’s buyout by WWF during late 2001, WCW’s belts were assimilated into those used by WWF; therefore, WCW’s United States Heavyweight Championship became part of WWF’s recognition. WWF then concurrently re-branded its other titles with “WWF”; however, due to concerns about potential legal issues with the NWA over ownership of “United States Heavyweight”, it was left unchanged and remained as “WCW United States Heavyweight” until early 2002 when it became exclusive to Raw.
