===PPPO World Eightball Championship===
The following is a list of '''PPPO world eightball champions''', sanctioned by the PPPO ([[Professional Pool Players Organization]]). In 1985 the PPPO ran their first event under the "EPA world rules" that pre-dated the standardized "[[Blackball (pool)#WEPF World Rules|WEPF world rules]]" and drew contestants from [[Snooker]], [[pool (cue sport)|Pool]] and [[blackball (pool)|English Eightball]], to popularize the game worldwide. From 1996 the tournament was being held annually, up until 2005, when the last tournament was held.

===PPPO World Eightball Championship===
The following is a list of '''PPPO world eightball champions''', sanctioned by the PPPO ([[Professional Pool Players Organization]]). In 1985 the PPPO ran their first event under the "EPA world rules" that pre-dated the standardized "[[Blackball (pool)#WEPF World Rules|WEPF world rules]]" and drew contestants from [[Snooker]], [[pool (cue sport)|Pool]] and [[blackball (pool)|English Eightball]], to popularize the game worldwide. From 1996 the tournament was being held annually, up until 2005, when the last tournament was held.
