Perspective

Inaugural champion Jordynne Grace.

On the September 30, 2021 episode of Impact!, the Impact Digital Media Championship was introduced and it was announced that an intergender tournament will be held with the inaugural champion being crowned in the final at Bound for Glory. The first round matches aired on Tuesdays and Wednesdays on Impact Plus and on YouTube for Impact Ultimate Insider members, before being distributed to the public across all social media platforms 24 hours later.[3][4] On October 23, 2021, Jordynne Grace won the intergender six-way match tournament final to become the inaugural Impact Digital Media Championship holder by defeating Chelsea Green, Crazzy Steve, Fallah Bahh, John Skyler, and Madison Rayne at Bound for Glory.[5]

In June of 2024, TNA wrestler A. J. Francis won the Digital Media Championship from Laredo Kid. Days later, Francis bought the Canadian International Heavyweight Championship, a title that was promoted in Canada for many years and had been retired since 1987. As the new owner of the title, Francis declared himself as its new champion, making himself a double champion in the process. All Digital Media matches after this were for both title belts, until January of 2025.[6][7]

On January 19, 2025 at The People vs GCW, an event promoted by Game Changer Wrestling, TNA Digital Media Champion PCO appeared. During a unplanned segment, he attempted to destrory the Digital Media championship belt and announced his departure from TNA.[8] Five days later, TNA wrestler Steph De Lander appeared with the title, claiming she had won the title in divorce proceedings from PCO and declared herself champion.[9] During the March 29 tapings, Director of Authority Santino Marella stripped De Lander of the title, retired it and replaced it with the new TNA International Championship.
