The British (Open) Tag Team Championship is the top tag team championship contested for throughout the British wrestling circuit. For many years contested for in Brian Dixon's All Star Wrestling.[1] It has recently been revived by Stephen Barker's Rumble Wrestling Promotions.
Although the title was created just after the end of regular wrestling coverage on ITV, nonetheless it has changed hands on national UK television, as footage of Steve Prince and Vic Powers' victory over Liverpool Lads Robbie Brookside and Doc Dean was included on Brookside's episode of Video Diaries on BBC2 in 1994.[2] Also, author Simon Garfield included a detailed description of Brookside and Dean regaining the titles in Liverpool on 31 March 1995 in his book The Wrestling published by Faber and Faber[3]
Many versions of the British Tag Team Titles exist in the independent circuit of the United Kingdom at any given time but the scene is usually dominated by one company's version. When another company becomes dominant the title often manages to unify itself or is brought into that company.
Current champions
Kieron Lacey and Mark Trew won a tournament to determine new champions promoted by Rumble Promotions in Gillingham, Kent on 13 April 2024.
