Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship

The Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship (三冠ヘビー級王座) is a professional wrestling world heavyweight championship in the Japanese All Japan Pro Wrestling promotion. The current champion is Yuma Anzai, who is in his first reign.

Title history
The championship was established after the unification of its then-flagship title the PWF World Heavyweight Championship, with the NWA United National Championship and the NWA International Heavyweight Championship. The titles were unified on April 18, 1989, when NWA International Heavyweight Champion Jumbo Tsuruta defeated the PWF World Heavyweight and NWA United National Champion Stan Hansen.

Unlike most unified championships, the Triple Crown was originally represented through the continued use of the three individual championship belts. From 1989 to 2000, the holder of the Triple Crown was also presented by Nippon TV (AJPW's broadcaster at the time) with a large, globe-shaped trophy bearing the words "World Heavyweight Champion." The original title belts were returned to All Japan founder Giant Baba's widow Motoko in August 2013 and a new single title belt incorporating designs from the three original belts was made. The new title belt, which featured three plates representing the three original title belts, was unveiled on October 27. One of the plates includes the text "Jumbo Tsuruta Apr. 18 1989", representing the crowning of the inaugural champion. There have been a total of 31 recognized champions who have had a combined 70 official reigns. Six men in history have held the championship for a continuous reign of one year (365 days) or more: Mitsuharu Misawa, Suwama, Kento Miyahara (who have each achieved the feat twice), Jumbo Tsuruta, Satoshi Kojima and Toshiaki Kawada.

The current and youngest champion is Yuma Anzai, who is in his first reign. He defeated Katsuhiko Nakajima on March 30, 2024 at Dream Power Series 2024 - Day 5 in Tokyo, Japan.
