The NWA World Television Championship is a secondary men's title of the National Wrestling Alliance, revived in December 2019 with its own distinct lineage. It revives the name of the original NWA World Television Championship, which became the WCW World Television Championship and whose lineage is now owned by WWE. Ricky Starks won an inaugural tournament in January 2020; Tyrus holds the longest reign at 414 days. The title is frequently put in play through the NWA's "Lucky Seven Rule", under which a champion may relinquish it to earn a Worlds Heavyweight title shot.
