The WWWF/WWF Junior Heavyweight Championship was created in 1967. Its first champion was "Jumping" Johnny De Fazio, who would hold the title four times between 1967 and 1972, until he vacated the title upon retiring.

In 1978, after six years of inactivity, the title was reactivated and its first champion upon reactivating the title was Carlos Jose Estrada. When Tatsumi Fujinami defeated Estrada for the title in January 1978, the title was brought over to New Japan Pro Wrestling, where Fujinami became the pioneer of junior heavyweight wrestling and gave the title recognition around the world by defending it in Japan, United States, and Europe. Fujinami would hold the title twice, until moving up to the heavyweight division in October 1981.

Other champions included Ryuma Go, Tiger Mask, Black Tiger, Dynamite Kid, Hiro Saito, and the title's last champion The Cobra. In October 1985, New Japan and WWF split, as New Japan was developing their own junior heavyweight championship, the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship.
