The Impact Wrestling World Tag Team Championship, formerly TNA World Tag Team Championship, is a professional wrestling world tag team championship which is owned by the Impact Wrestling promotion. The current champions are Angel Ortiz and Mike Draztic of the Latin American Xchange (LAX), who are in their first reign both individually and as a team. They defeated Decay, Reno Scum, and the team of Garza Jr. and The Laredo Kid in a four-way match to win the vacant titles on March 4, 2017 in Orlando, Florida during the Impact Wrestling tapings. It is primarily contested within Impact's tag team division. It was created and debuted on May 14, 2007 at the taping of then-TNA's primary television program, TNA Impact!. It was officially introduced worldwide on the May 17, 2007 edition of TNA's online podcast TNA Today. Like most professional wrestling championships, the title is won as a result of a pre-determined match.
The Total Nonstop Action Wrestling promotion formed in May 2002. Later that same year, TNA were granted control over the NWA World Heavyweight and World Tag Team Championships by the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) governing body, subsequently becoming an official NWA territory as NWA–TNA. On June 19, 2002, NWA–TNA held its first show: a weekly pay-per-view (PPV) event. The main event of the telecast was a twenty–man Gauntlet for the Gold match—involving all twenty men trying to throw each other over the top rope and down to the floor in order to eliminate them, until there are two men left who wrestle a standard match—to become the first ever TNA–era NWA World Heavyweight Champion.Ken Shamrock defeated Malice to win the championship with Ricky Steamboat as Special Guest Referee at the event. TNA crowned the first TNA–era NWA World Tag Team Champions at their third weekly PPV event on July 3, 2002, when the team of A.J. Styles and Jerry Lynn defeated The Rainbow Express (Bruce and Lenny Lane) in a tournament final to win the championship.
