FMW version
In 1989, the Japan-based Frontier Martial-Arts Wrestling (FMW) began billing Florida Championship Wrestling/Professional Wrestling Federation champion Jim Backlund as the AWA champion. This was never sanctioned by the AWA. FMW's claimed title became FMW's lower weight division title. In 1992, FMW renamed the title to the WWA World Martial Arts Junior Heavyweight Championship before retiring it in 1993.
