Defunct Championships
While the names of these championships suggest they were defended on a national, or even international, basis, it was rarely the case. The vast majority of the championships listed were rarely, if ever, used outside of the respective NWA territory they belonged to. As a result, most of them were technically regional titles rather than nationally based titles.

Famous quotes containing the word defunct:
“The consciousness of being deemed dead, is next to the presumable unpleasantness of being so in reality. One feels like his own ghost unlawfully tenanting a defunct carcass.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
