The SMW United States Junior Heavyweight Championship was a singles title in Smoky Mountain Wrestling. It existed from 1992 until the promotion's close in 1995. There were three officially recognized champions and eight title reigns, with Bobby Blaze holding the title a record four times.[1][2] Because the championship is a professional wrestling championship, it is won and lost competitively. The championship is awarded after the Wrestler who is more “over” wins the match.
