Nope, not from my knowledge.
Only known edge to vacate it due to retirement.

Wasn't Flair a champion when he was in a plane crash? I guess that would be the closest to it happening to my knowledge.

Both Benoit and Guerrero died the same day they were set to wrestle for titles.. Benoit vs Cm Punk for the ECW title, and Eddie vs Batista vs Orton for the WHC title.

I always wondered what WWE would do if that ever happened Same thing the WWE did when Owen Hart died. The show would go on! They would vacate the title, and have a memorial tournament for the title with a show dedicated to said wrestler. I just hope we don't ever see that happen. |

Yes Flair was the champion Ric Flair was NOT NWA Champion when his plane crashed on October 4, 1975, He was the Mid-Atlantic Television Champion. He had defeated Paul Jones earlier in the year. He did not win the NWA Championship until beating Dusty Rhodes in 1981. |

I know there was.. But I'm forgetting who I was and what title it was.. It wasn't in a major company.

Yeah im almost positive Orton was gonna win because Batista had a lingering injury and Eddie/Orton were gonna feud for a while. But after the tragedy Batista decided to hang around for a while. |

Mitsuharu Misawa died during a match he was supposed to win the GHC Tag Belts with Go Shiozaki also. He certainly did. I believe it was due to spine damage caused by a german suplex. |

It wasn't 'caused' by the Backdrop Suplex per se, it was degration over a period of time and the backdrop set off cardiac arrest. |
