== Johnny Hotbody (ECW) ==

Why was Johnny Hotbody removed? The RVD thing is understandable because there’s no clear consensus on if WWECW counts, but Hotbody won all three belts in the original ECW, and has been listed for years. Why was he suddenly removed?

Also, I believe that even though RVD (ECW) and Big Show (WCW) shouldn’t be listed, it should be noted that both won the respective titles needed for triple crowns, but after the companies closed and WWE continued using certain championships. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/97.127.171.30|97.127.171.30]] ([[User talk:97.127.171.30#top|talk]]) 18:58, 4 July 2019 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:I removed since... there is no source. Several websites cited Whipwreck as the first ECW Triple Crown champion. --[[User:HHH Pedrigree|HHH Pedrigree]] ([[User talk:HHH Pedrigree|talk]]) 19:43, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

== Revival Triple Crown Tag Team Champions ==

[http://shop.wwe.com/the-revival-triple-crown-tag-team-champions-20-x-24-commemorative-plaque/2591F493A8.html?dwvar_2591F493A8_color=No%20Color Just stumbled on to this at WWE Shop], where the Revival are recognized as Triple Crown Tag Team Champions (Raw, SD, NXT).

Was wondering if this is good enough for it to be added to the article before we do all kinds of changes.

:Mmmm, I would prefer a better source, instead merchandaising. It's strage, I made a quick research and I found no mention of Triple Crown Tag Team Championship n the reliable sources. Even isn't mentioned in WWE.com --[[User:HHH Pedrigree|HHH Pedrigree]] ([[User talk:HHH Pedrigree|talk]]) 00:19, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
::For what it's worth, '''EVERYTHING''' WWE (or any wrestling company) does can be tied into merchandise (everybody is in business to make a buck). If WWE wants you to spend a hundred bucks and change to buy a plaque honoring their achievement, it's gotta mean something - no? [[User:Vjmlhds|Vjmlhds]] [[user talk:Vjmlhds|(talk)]] 19:26, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
:::I know, but is strange that the Triple Crown only appears in merchandise. No mention in the programming, no notes on the website... --[[User:HHH Pedrigree|HHH Pedrigree]] ([[User talk:HHH Pedrigree|talk]]) 19:47, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
:::: [[User:Emily.lemk|Emily.lemk]] Added a section that was removed due to the source being unreliable, so if the WWE do ever declare it legitimate, we can just add it back. I do agree with [[User:Drummoe]] upon further consideration, because the rules of the Triple Crown haven't been established. Are Jason Jordan and Chad Gable not considered, since they have one all three? or does it apply exclusively to tag teams [[User:Emily.lemk|Emily.lemk]] ([[User talk:Emily.lemk|talk]]) 10:15, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
:::::I am a bit late to this discussion, sorry. January into February is my busiest time at work and my kids school vacation is in January not December, so I was busy with that.
:::::Anyway to the topic at hand, its interesting that it is the only place it appears. When discussing Bayley's Grand Slam at [[Grand_Slam_(professional_wrestling)#Bayley_-_Women's_Grand_Slam]] {{u|Vjmlhds}} brought up a WWE Shop item in that case as well and it seems to end that discussion (pinging {{u|JDC808}} who was involved there but stated they did not follow these pages as they may want to chime in also.
:::::According to [[WP:PW/RS]] 411Mania has limited reliability, and states "{{tq|Stay away from news articles that are crediting sources we consider unreliable.}}" They call them the first triple crown [https://411mania.com/wrestling/the-revivals-scott-dawson-time-leave-break/]. BR is listed as being used for "minor claims" which is open to interpretation, but they also referred to them as the first [https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2853878-the-real-winners-and-losers-from-wwe-clash-of-champions-2019#slide3].
:::::In my opinion, if you just had 411Mania and BR, than the answer would be no. When you include those two PLUS the WWE Shop, I think it is enough to say we include it. Additionally since they are considered the first it means its only as a tag team, not individual like Jordan or Gable. - '''''[[User:Galatz|<span style="color: #000080">Galatz גאליץ</span>]][[User_talk:Galatz|<span style="color: #FF0000"><sup>שיחה Talk</sup></span>]]''''' 13:00, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

== Ring of Honor ==

If ROH counts any combination of TV, Tag and Pure shouldn't they all be listed as "Secondary" titles? As the table stands it would look as if someone that had won the World, TV and Pure (does anyone like that exist?) they wouldn't qualify.

Kenzie Paige is apparently the first NWA Triple Crown winner (female or otherwise) for winning the Women’s World, Women’s TV, and Women’s Tag titles.

Be reminded that the old WWF/WWE World Tag Team titles (1971-2010) do not share the same lineage with the new World Tag Team titles. The new World Tag Team titles have a lineage that traces back to the original WWE Tag Team titles that came out in 2002. That history is tied to those titles. The links should be separate.

Braun Strowman/Universal title

[edit]

I know it’s gonna need to be sourced eventually to be on here, but Braun Strowman has won the Universal, Intercontinental, & Raw Tag belts. If the Universal title counts for the Grand Slam (we know WWE says it does), shouldn’t it also count for the Triple Crown? Thus Braun would the 31st person to win it and Drew would be 32nd — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.50.55.142 (talk) 03:11, 7 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The WWE needs to confirm it for the Triple Crown, and currently they have not. (User:Jacked14) 09:07 7 April 2020 (UTC)
They confirmed the new titles were part of the Grand Slam in 2016, why would it not be the same here? You can’t win a Grand Slam with having a Triple Crown first anyway 71.50.196.52 (talk) 04:39, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It is time for someone to talk to WWE or someone close to them about this. We have 2 other people after Strowman becoming Grand Slam Champions and are not recognized as Triple Crown Champions. The Universal Title (by itself) should be considered a part of it. I know that this title and the WWE Championship are represented by one single belt at the moment. It is time for Strowman, Owens and Balor to be considered Triple Crown Champions now. 2600:4040:9DDB:4100:D851:EC67:EA2:22BA (talk) 17:20, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bret Hart

[edit]

Is it worth mentioning that he's the only wrestler to have held both the WWF and WCW triple crown? And where should this be placed in the article? Romomusicfan (talk) 17:43, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Only? No. First? Yes. 2601:281:D480:2FE4:ED36:D1A0:DAF2:7799 (talk) 12:25, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Knockouts Triple Crown

[edit]

I do believe this should be sufficient to show that Impact has now established a Knockouts Triple Crown with Jordynne Grace as the first winner, having held the Knockouts, Knockouts Tag Team, and now the (intergender) Digital Media Championships. Vjmlhds (talk) 14:32, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Chad Gable

[edit]

On Monday night raw 8/1/22, WWE put that he is a tag team triple crown champion when he was on his way to the ring with the info/name graphic. should this be considered as cannon and make an Individual tag team Triple crown as well as the normal way to get a tag-team triple crown? and if so we would also have to add Jason Jordan as he has held all eligible titles for a tag team triple crown.
