The '''WCW World Six-Man Tag Team Championship''' was a short-lived [[Championship (professional wrestling)|championship]] contested in [[World Championship Wrestling]] throughout 1991. It was considered a revived version of the [[NWA World Six-Man Tag Team Championship]] that was used in [[Jim Crockett Promotions]]; however, unlike the former version, which was often held by main eventers in between singles title feuds, this title was mostly used to [[push (professional wrestling)|push]] midcarders. The only men to win the title twice are Ricky Morton and Tommy Rich. It was abandoned in November 1991.<ref name=title/>

Months later, on the May 23rd & 30th editions of "WCW Magazine" during WCW Worldwide, announcer Eric Bischoff mentioned that the Six-Man Tag Team Titles would be on the line at Beach Blast 1992, when Bobby Eaton, Arn Anderson, & Steve Austin faced Barry Windham, Dustin Rhodes, & Nikita Koloff. The idea to bring back the titles was apparently changed, as the match ended up a standard six-man tag match.
