This section lists world champions in [[Eight-ball pool (British variation)|British-style eight-ball]], which exists in a few slight-variant versions (usually referred to as ''blackball'' and ''{{not a typo|eightball}} pool'') with different [[Sport governing body|governing bodies]]. This version is played at the amateur and semi-professional levels in [[Commonwealth of Nations|Commonwealth]] countries and a few continental European nations. These tournaments are played on 7-foot [[Billiard table|pool tables]] with colored balls—typically red and yellow—instead of the solid and striped balls of American-style pool, though both game types feature a black {{cuegloss|8 ball}}. |

The following is a list of '''PPPO world eightball champions''', sanctioned by the [[Professional Pool Players Organisation]]. In 1985, the PPPO (also known as EUKPF) ran their first event under the [[Eight-ball pool (British variation)#EPA rules (1978–1998)|EPA rules]] of the English Pool Association, which pre-dated the standardized [[Eight-ball pool (British variation)#EPA/WEPF world rules (1998–2022)|WEPF world rules]] introduced in 1998. PPPO drew contestants from other [[Pool (cue sport)|pool]] disciplines and from [[snooker]] to popularize the game more broadly. From 1996, the tournament was annual, up to 2005, when the last of its events was held. |

Professional world champions in eight-ball pool and its variations include:
American-style[edit]
This section lists world champions in the internationally standardized game ("American-style") of eight-ball, as played by professionals around the world. This is played on the 9-foot pool tables with colored, numbered balls.
WPA World Eight-ball Championship[edit]
The following is a list of WPA world eight-ball champions sanctioned by the World Pool-Billiard Association (WPA).
British-style[edit]
This section lists world champions in British-style eight-ball, which exists in a few slight-variant versions (usually referred to as blackball and eightball pool) with different governing bodies. This version is played at the amateur and semi-professional levels in Commonwealth countries and a few continental European nations. These tournaments are played on 7-foot pool tables with colored balls—typically red and yellow—instead of the solid and striped balls of American-style pool, though both game types feature a black 8 ball.
WPA World Blackball Championship[edit]
The following is a list of WPA world blackball champions, sanctioned by the World Pool-Billiard Association (WPA). The blackball rules variant was first discussed by the WPA in a unification meeting in 2004, with rules ratified in 2005 in anticipation of blackball's first world championship in 2006.[7]
