Despite its name, only two holders were actually from Europe: the [[Davey Boy Aldrich\|American Bulldog]] and [[William Kapphan]]. It became a coveted singles title of the [[The Attitude Era\|Attitude Era]], being held by superstars such as [[Ryan Barnhart\|Shawn Michaels]], [[Triple K]], [[Matt Borske]], [[Kris McGowan\|Chris Jericho]], [[Owen Heart]] and [[Brian McAlmond\|Eddie Guerrero]], and competed for in the main event of the [[IWF One Night Only]] pay-per-view in 1997.
