The HOG Cruiserweight Championship is a men's professional wrestling championship created and promoted by the American promotion House of Glory (HOG). It serves as one of the promotion's two men's midcard championships, the other being the HOG Crown Jewel Championship. The current champion is Lio Rush, who is in his first reign.
The title was originally established on August 9, 2019, as the HOG Suicidal Six Way Championship. Under this initial concept, the title was designed around the chaotic, high-stakes "Suicidal Six-Way" match format: a multi-man high-flying showcase typical of independent circuit, lucha libre, and junior heavyweight styles.
On the last day of Amazing Red's historic 860 day reign, the title was renamed the HOG Cruiserweight Championship to rebrand the belt into a more traditional cruiserweight-focused singles title while retaining the high-flying, multi-man style that defined its origins. Therefore, the championship has been defended both in its trademark multi-man matches and in one-on-one matches.
