The Impact Wrestling X Division Championship is a professional wrestling championship owned by the Impact Wrestling promotion. It debuted on June 19, 2002 at the taping of then-TNA's second weekly pay-per-view (PPV) event.
Like most professional wrestling championships, the title is won as a result of a scripted match. There have been 68 reigns among 30 wrestlers. The title has previously been known as the TNA X Division Championship, the NWA X Championship, the NWA–TNA X Championship, and the NWA–TNA X Division Championship.
The belt in this model is the designed used by Impact Wrestling from 2007 to 2013.
In May 2007, the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) ended their five-year partnership with TNA, which allowed the NWA to regain control over the NWA World Heavyweight and World Tag Team Championships that TNA had controlled since June 2002. TNA then introduced a new TNA X Division Championship belt on the May 16, 2007 edition of TNA's online podcast TNA Today. Jeremy Borash and Management Director Jim Cornette, TNA's on-screen authority figure at the time, unveiled the new belt and awarded it to then-champion Chris Sabin.
On July 19, 2013, former TNA President Dixie Carter unveiled a new design for the championship, with blue accents to match the color scheme of the company. On June 16, 2015, TNA tweaked the title's design by recoloring its accents from blue to green.
