The Spirit of Ganbare World Openweight Championship (スピリット・オブ・ガンバレ世界無差別級王座, Supiritto Obu Ganbare Sekai Musabetsu-kyū Ōza) is a professional wrestling championship in Ganbare☆Pro-Wrestling (GanPro), a sub-brand of the Japanese promotion CyberFight. The title is the first to be created specifically for GanPro.[1]

The current champion is Tatsuhito Takaiwa who won the title after defeating Yumehito Imanari in the final of the 2021 Ganbare☆Climax.[2]

History[]

Ganbare☆Pro-Wrestling was created in 2013 by Ken Ohka as a brand of DDT Pro-Wrestling. The brand was created to capture the spirit of small independent promotions in Japan and, to do so, regularly brought in wrestlers from outside the promotion. On March 18, 2017, Ohka beat Shiori Asahi at a Kaientai Dojo event to win the Independent World Junior Heavyweight Championship.[3][4] The title stayed with the promotion where it served as its main singles title until January 2021 when it moved to Professional Wrestling Just Tap Out (JTO).[3] Now without a singles title to promote, in September 2021, GanPro revived the Ganbare☆Climax and created the Spirit of Ganbare World Openweight Championship as a prize for the winner of the tournament.[5] The tournament was won by Tatsuhito Takaiwa on November 23.[2]
