Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox pro wrestling championship The CWA World Middleweight Championship was a professional wrestling middleweight championship in Catch Wrestling Association (CWA). The title was one of the two weight-based titles in CWA, along with the CWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship, which was introduced in 1993. The title was created in December 1984 and a tournament was set up to determine the inaugural champion. The last previous holder of the European version of the World Middlweight Championship, Adrian Street, had moved to the United States in 1981. Tony St. Clair won the tournament to become the inaugural holder of the new CWA version on December 22, 1984.[1] The title was deactivated when the company closed on December 4, 1999.[2] The championship was contested under 12 three-minute rounds. A rival European version of the World Middleweight championship was promoted in the UK by All Star Wrestling and Rumble Promotions 1991-1996.[3]
