ICW Television Championship

The ICW Television Championship was a singles championship in International Championship Wrestling.^[1] Because the championship is a professional wrestling championship, it is not won or lost competitively but instead by the decision of the bookers of a wrestling promotion. The championship is awarded after the chosen team "wins" a match to maintain the illusion that professional wrestling is a competitive sport.^[2]
