Title Changes due to a DQ
I've seen many matches where the reigning champ has had a match where the title could change hands on a DQ. But other than Christian's
win last night, I can think of exactly one other match where such a title change occurred - The Quebecers beating The Steiners for the WWF Tag Team
Titles on RAW in 1993. I know Sting beat Flair for his first NWA title in such a match in 1990, but that was by pinfall, not via the DQ stip.
Any other examples where the title actually changed hands on a DQ?

The Giant won it from Hogan at Halloween Havoc, though that was over turned since Hogan was never informed of the stipulation..

Chris Adams beat Rick Rude for the World Class World Title via DQ in 1986
The DQ rule was one of the 'reasons' WCCW withdrew from the NWA, so they had to use it right away to get the point across.

Abyss did beat Sting by DQ to win the title. I know this because of my incredibly horrible "If Abyss wins the title, I'll shave my head,"
statement. Tip: don't be friends with people who have head shaving equipment.

TNA had a blanket "titles change hands by DQ" rule for the first several years of the company, until they broke away from the NWA and eliminated
that rule, I think under the explanation that that was an NWA rule, and not a TNA rule.
Abyss did win the title via DQ from Sting. Also, D'Lo Brown and Apolo won the tag titles from Kid Kash and Dallas (Lance Hoyt) by DQ, and
someone in the very early days (I think maybe Jerry Lynn?) won the X-Division title via DQ.
