The WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship was a title created in 2001 just prior to World Championship Wrestling (WCW) being sold to the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE).
The WCW Cruiserweight Championship and the matches contested for that title had long been a unique feature on WCW programming. With the number of cruiserweights signed, it was decided to expand the visibility of the division, and create a tag team title for the cruiserweights in February 2001. The title was retired when on March 26, 2001, WCW's assets were sold to the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE).
Nearly 15 years after this title was retired, WWE had planned to revive the cruiserweight tag team championship to complement its own singles championship, according to former WWE wrestler Gentleman Jack Gallagher, under its own banner for the Raw brand, but it never materialized. Another attempt for the cruiserweight tag team championship revival was planned in 2018 under the 205 Live brand but these plans also never came to fruition.
