World Wrestling Entertainment's Hardcore Championship was a championship defended under hardcore rules:

  • No Disqualifications, meaning all weapons are legal.
  • Falls Count Anywhere, meaning pinfalls and submissions do not have to take place in the ring. This was taken to an extreme one time when Al Snow defeated Hardcore Holly by pinning him in the banks of the Mississippi River.
  • No Holds Barred, meaning that the referee will allow anything and will only end the match with a pinfall or submission.
  • 24/7 Rules, meaning the belt was being defended at all times, allowing the championship to change hands anytime as long as there was a referee present.
