Wave Tag Team Championship

The Wave Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling tag team championship owned by the Pro Wrestling Wave promotion. The title is nicknamed "Dual Shock Wave".^[5] The championship was first announced on August 28, 2011, at Wave's fourth anniversary event,^[1] and the first champions were crowned on October 30, when kanAyu (Ayumi Kurihara and Kana) defeated Uematsu☆Ran (Ran Yu-Yu and Toshie Uematsu) to win the Dual Shock Wave 2011 tournament and become the inaugural champions.^[2] From 2009 to 2010, Wave had promoted matches for the TLW World Young Women's Tag Team Championship, but this was the first title officially created and owned by the promotion.^[6][7] Though primarily contested for by female wrestlers, one male team, Yankii Nichokenju (Isami Kodaka and Yuko Miyamoto), has also held the title.^[8][9]
