On December 14, 2011, All Pro Wrestling announced that they had come to terms with Vendetta Pro Wrestling to recognize the Vendetta Pro Tag-Team Championship, and to have them defended in both Vendetta Pro and in APW as the "Unified" Tag Team Titles.[1] The titles were defended for the first time in APW on January 14, 2011, as champions Greg Hernandez and Jesse Jimenez defended against APW's team of Jody Kristofferson and Dalton Frost. Since then, the APW/Vendetta Pro Unified Tag Team Champions will often wear one Vendetta Pro title belt along with one APW title belt.

This relationship came to an end in 2014 when Vendetta Pro returned to having their own set of tag belts, following this the APW would reinstate the championships.
