The GCW Ultraviolent Championship is a professional wrestling hardcore championship created and promoted by the American promotion Game Changer Wrestling (GCW). It is one of the two hardcore championships promoted by the promotion, alongside the GCW Extreme Championship. The title can be won by both male and female wrestlers.[1]

Title history

Like most professional wrestling championships, the title is won as a result of a scripted match. Championship matches typically occur on GCW events, though at least one championship match has been promoted by Big Japan Pro Wrestling (BJW).

There have been a total of nine reigns shared between seven different champions plus one vacancy. There is currently no title holder as it's declared vacant, after Sawyer Wreck has declared retired following winning the 2024 Nick Gage Invitational Finals and the championship belt.
