WWF Hardcore Championship
The WWE Hardcore Championship hardcore wrestling championship of the WWE . The championship was introduced on November 2, 1998, and the first title holder was Mankind after being given the title by Vince McMahon . In 2000, the WWE introduced a 24/7 ruleWWE Intercontinental Championship WWE 24/7 Championship storyline .
history The title was introduced on November 2nd, 1998 to satisfy the desire of WWF fans for tougher matches. The first title holder was Mankind , who was given the title by Vince McMahon for falling in the "Hell In A Cell Match" against Undertaker ( King Of The Ring 1998 ). In 2000, the WWE introduced a 24/7 rule . This rule stated that the title holder had to defend his title very often and it could be pinned at any time as long as a referee is present. Due to this rule, there were many title changes, even outside of scheduled matches. In August 2002, the then General Manager of RAW Eric Bischoff announced the end of the 24/7 rule . On August 26, 2002, the title was combined in an association hardcore match between Rob Van Dam , the then WWE Intercontinental Champion and Tommy Dreamer , the then holder of the WWE Hardcore title , for the WWE Intercontinental Championship . The WWE hardcore title was thus discontinued. Due to the so-called 24/7 rule , there were a total of 51 title winners, who together could book 234 title wins. The most successful hardcore champion was Raven with 27 reigns. The only women to ever hold the title, if only for a few seconds, were Trish Stratus , Terri Runnells, and Molly Holly. As is common in wrestling, the award was made according to a previously determined storyline .
