GWF LIGHT-HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE The GWF's Light-Heavyweight title, or Cruiserweight title, has had a fairly short history as compared to other championships. The title was created and then desanctioned. Years later when the roster merited its return, the Cruiserweight title was re-instated. Since the title's inception, two wrestlers have made themselves stand out. Bishop Hell holds the record as the longest reigning champion. The title was desanctioned after he lost it. Recently, Archon came close to the record of most title defenses, being stopped at 11. Rising Sun/Eclipse is the only 3-time Cruiserweight champion. Ursa Major and Varsity have held it twice.
