History[]
Union Pro Wrestling was a promotion that was revived by DDT Pro-Wrestling in 2005. The Union MAX Championship was established in 2013 when Ivan Markov defeated Shuji Ishikawa to become the inaugural champion.[1]
In January 2016, three days after folding, Union was replaced by a new promotion named Pro-Wrestling Basara. The title was reactivated when Isami Kodaka defeated Trans-Am★Hiroshi to win his third title.[2] The original belt design is still used which bears the "Union" name on it.
