The FTW Championship is a championship that originated in Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) in 1998.
Taz announced the creation of the FTW Heavyweight Championship (also referred to as the Brooklyn World Championship) on May 14, 1998 at It Ain't Seinfeld. In the storyline, he was frustrated by his inability to challenge for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship due to champion Shane Douglas' injury and refusal to face him. Taz created and defended his own title, billing himself as the "real" world champion. The belt was billed as "unrecognized" by ECW.
