EWA GEORGIA HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP BELT | CHAMPION | TITLE HISTORY The EWA Georgia Heavyweight Title Belt
The EWA Georgia Heavyweight title belt was crafted by Dave Millican and was created from artwork that matched the original NWA Georgia Heavyweight title belt worn by such great champions as Mr. Wrestling II, Tommy Rich, the Masked Superstar, Paul Jones, Dick Slater, Stan Hansen, and many others. The title was established in 2007 when Bobby Eaton won a tournament on 4/1/07 in Augusta GA to capture the title. (Don't remember that tournament taking place? It was a tournament in the rich tradition of the one where Pat Patterson won the first WWWF Intercontinental title in Rio de Janeiro, and where Harley Race won the United States title in Florida... you get the picture.)
EWA Georgia Heavyweight Champion Mr. #1 George South After Ricky Steamboat Jr. relinquished the Georgia championship and headed to Japan, a tournament was held and the winner was George South over Mr. Florida for the title. Yes, that's right, George South beat Mr. Florida in North Carolina for the Georgia title. The EWA knows no boundaries.
