Grand Slam Champion

A Grand Slam Champion in professional wrestling is a distinction made to a professional wrestler who has won all of the major titles in a promotion. The Grand Slam typically consists of four titles, mirroring the grand slams found in golf and tennis. The four titles typically feature three tiers of heavyweight belts and a set of tag team belts. Because of this, a Grand Slam Champion is necessarily a Triple Crown Champion, which consists of the top two tiers of heavyweight belts and the tag team belts.
==World Wrestling Federation / Entertainment==
In the World Wrestling Federation (now known as "World Wrestling Entertainment") the term "Grand Slam Champion" was originally used by Shawn Michaels to describe himself upon winning the WWF Championship, the WWF Intercontinental Championship, the WWF European Championship and the WWF Tag Team Championship. As of 2007, only four wrestlers have held all four of those titles. As the European Championship was discontinued on July 22, 2002, the number of future potential Grand Slam Champions is limited to wrestlers who have already held the European Championship (see list of WWE European Champions).
In 2006, World Wrestling Entertainment stated, "Michaels was the first-ever Grand Slam Champion, capturing the European Championship once, the World Tag Team Championship four times, the Intercontinental Championship three times and the WWE and World Heavyweight Championships a total of four times." This indicates that WWE considers the World Heavyweight Championship to be an acceptable substitute for the WWF Championship (renamed the WWE Championship in 2002) in completing the Grand Slam. No wrestlers have completed the Grand Slam under this revised definition.
In April 2006, Kurt Angle was described as a "former Grand Slam Champion" on WWE.com, indicating that WWE considers the WWE Tag Team Championship to be an acceptable substitute for the World Tag Team Championship. Including Angle, two wrestlers have completed the Grand Slam under this revised definition.
Following WrestleMania 31 in 2015, WWE established a new version of the Grand Slam - consisting of the four currently active titles in WWE, which are the WWE World Heavyweight, Intercontinental, United States, and WWE Tag Team Championships. Fifteen wrestlers have been recognized as Grand Slam winners under these new parameters (including five who were already recognized as Grand Slam winners under the original guidelines). With the brand extension re-established, WWE indicated in 2017 that the WWE Universal Championship and the SmackDown Tag Team Championship are acceptable substitutes for their counterpart titles as part of the Grand Slam.
In May 2019, Bayley was announced as the first Women's WWE Grand Slam champion. A WWE.com article only cited the WWE Raw Women's Championship, WWE SmackDown Women's Championship, and WWE Women's Tag Team Championship for the Grand Slam which are the same three titles that make up the women's Triple Crown of which Bayley is also the first, but the only other title Bayley has won is the NXT Women's Championship During Survivor Series 2017, Charlotte Flair referred to herself as a Grand Slam champion, having also won the now-retired Divas Championship in addition to the NXT, Raw, and SmackDown titles, however, this was never officially recognized by WWE.
On February 21, 2021, WWE acknowledged The Miz as the first (and presently only) wrestler to complete the Grand Slam twice after beating Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship. This indicates that under the revised format, a wrestler can win multiple Grand Slams.
As of , , 30 wrestlers have been recognized as WWE Grand Slam winners under its various incarnations.
===WWF/E Grand Slam Champions===
The title wins stated below are the respective wrestlers' first wins of each title. In most cases, it is not the only time the wrestler has won that title.

On the March 19 episode of TNA's primary television program, TNA Impact!, Impact!

===List of TNA Grand Slam Champions===
