After the promotion parted ways with the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA), the Championship was renamed the CWFH International Television Championship.[citation needed]

In 2013, the title was again renamed the MAV Television Championship. During 2015, the title was renamed to United Wrestling Network Television Championship.[citation needed]
