The Spirit of Ganbare World Tag Team Championship (Japanese: スピリット・オブ・ガンバレ世界タッグ王座, Hepburn: Supiritto obu Ganbare Sekai Taggu Ōza) is a professional wrestling tag team championship promoted by the Ganbare☆Pro-Wrestling (GanPro) promotion. The title is the first tag team title to have been created specifically for GanPro, and the second overall. The current champions are Renegades (Shigehiro Irie and Mizuki Watase).
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.
In September 2021 – now part of the CyberFight umbrella promotion – GanPro created its first own championship, the Spirit of Ganbare World Openweight Championship as a prize for the winner of the 2021 Ganbare☆Climax. On January 5, 2023, GanPro followed with an announcement for the creation of the Spirit of Ganbare World Tag Team Championship.[1] On March 5, at Tsumetai Ame ni Ute, Yakusoku no Jūdan o 2023, the four teams that would compete in a tournament to crown the inaugural champions were announced.[2][3] On May 5, at Love Phantom 2023, Hentai Punch Drunkers (Hikaru Sato and Tyson Maeguchi ) defeated Uruseez (Tatsuhito Takaiwa and Yumehito Imanari) in the final to win the inaugural title.[4]
On April 1, 2024, GanPro officially split from CyberFight and became an independent promotion.[5]
