History
The RQW Cruiserweight Championship is the most recent edition of belts to the company's roster having been created almost two years after the RQW Heavyweight Championship and RQW Women's Championship were created. The first-ever champion, Bubblegum won a nine man elimination match at Summer Brawl 2006 in Horndean, Portsmouth to become #1 contender for the title. He defeated Red Vinny at No Pain, No Gain 2007 to become the first champion. However, Bubblegum soon vacated the belt and Red Vinny would reign for just shy of two years until he lost the belt in Ireland to Mark Haskins on December 6. Haskins also became the first person to win the belt twice.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of all Magazines shows plainly that those which have attained celebrity were indebted for it to articles similar in natureto Berenice—although, I grant you, far superior in style and execution. I say similar in nature. You ask me in what does this nature consist? In the ludicrous heightened into the grotesque: the fearful coloured into the horrible: the witty exaggerated into the burlesque: the singular wrought out into the strange and mystical.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.”
—William James (1842–1910)
