Universal Pro Wrestling or UWF was a Japan based Lucha Libre promotion that ran from 1990 to 1995. The first ever Japanese promotion to be based around the Mexican Lucha Libre, the UWF had a working relationship with the WWF during the former’s initial days.

This led to the formation of the WWF Intercontinental tag team titles, a subsidiary to the WWF tag team titles The titles were awarded to Perro Aguayo and Gran Hamada in January of 1991, but by July, the WWE had severed its relationship with the UWF and the WWF Intercontinental titles were quietly abandoned.

The UWF would struggle on till 1995 when the promotion folded after top stars like Ultimo Dragon, Taka Michinoku and Gedo decided to leave. Future WWE/WCW/ECW stars such as X-Pac and Jerry Lynn were part of the UWF before its demise.
