EWA Tag Team Championship

The EWA Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling tag team championship in the Eastern Wrestling Alliance (EWA). It has been defended throughout the New England region since its introduction in 1998, specifically, in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island.

The inaugural champions were Revelations (Apocalypse, Kildevil, and Armageddon), who defeated The [...] (Mad Dog and Draven) and Steve Ramsey & Damian Houston in a three-way hardcore match on June 10, 2000 to become the first EWA Tag Team Champions. The Power Company (Dave Power and Dean Power) had won the championship two years earlier, however, the team was stripped of the belts days afterwards; as a result, the team's reign is not recognized by the promotion. At 384 days, The Logan Brothers' first and only reign was the longest, while the The Egomaniacs' first reign was the shortest lasting 7 days. With four reigns, The [...] held the most reigns as a tag team and individually. Overall, there have been 29 reigns.
