WWE has officially retired the NXT Heritage Cup Championship, a title that has not been featured in programming for over a year. The championship was introduced in 2020 for WWE's UK brand, with Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo being the final champion after holding the title for just 17 days. The title's removal from the champions section on WWE's website marks the end of its history, which included notable champions like Noam Dar, who holds the record for the longest reign. The NXT Heritage Cup Championship transitioned to the US NXT brand following the shutdown of NXT UK in 2022, but its inactivity led WWE management to discontinue it. In related news, Shawn Michaels announced the return of the NXT Great American Bash scheduled for June 28, 2026, which will air on the CW Network, creating anticipation for this upcoming event.
