[[Hijo del Fantasma]], a member of [[La Sociedad]] is the current and first champion. He won a 10 way elimination match, including former Cruiserweight Champion [[Daga]]. This match, taking place as part of [[TripleMania XXII]] on [[August 17]], [[2014]] in [[Arena Ciudad de Mexico]], is considered by AAA as the start of a championship and not a continuation of the previous championship of (nearly) the same name.
[[Matt Riddle]] is the current champion. He defeated [[Komander]] and [[Laredo Kid ]] in Triplemania XXXII at [[Arena Ciudad de México]].


== History of Championship ==
== History of Championship ==
As part of AAA's continuing evolution towards a US style promotion, and as a clear nod to the WCW title of the same division, this championships was created in 2009 to serve as a crown for those not big enough to be in contention for the [[AAA World Heavyweight Championship]]. Unlike the Mexican National championships, previously used in this role, all wrestlers are eligible for this championship regardless of home country. No specific weight limit has ever been emphasized for this division.

No specific weight limit has ever been emphasized for this division, just the broad idea there must be one.


AAA held a [[AAA World Cruiserweight Tournament, 2009|two stage, thirteen man tournament]] to determine the first champion. As tends to happen in AAA tournaments, it was complicated more than most, though there was a greater emphasis on explaining the tournament. As with the previous tournament for the AAA minis championship, the final was a three way, elimination match.

The title was irregularly defended over the next five years, frequently going many months without being exposed on teleivsion and often used as a way just to get a lot of midcarders onto a show. There were individual feuds teased, but singles matches were much more likely to take place on indy appearances.

In the lead up to [[TripleMania XXII]], AAA declared both this championship and the [[AAA Fusion Championship]] would be unified into a new AAA World Cruiserweight Championship. Despite some confusion (mostly on this wiki's part), this cruiserweight championship is considered to have an unbroken lineage - it's being treated as the same championship, just a new belt.

Matt Riddle is the current champion. He defeated Komander and Laredo Kid in Triplemania XXXII at Arena Ciudad de México.

History of Championship

As part of AAA's evolution towards a US-style promotion, and as a nod to the WCW title of the same division, this championship was created in 2009 to serve as a crown for those not big enough to be in contention for the AAA World Heavyweight Championship. Unlike the Mexican National championships previously used in this role all wrestlers are eligible for this championship regardless of the home country. No specific weight limit has ever been emphasized for this division, just the broad idea there must be one.

AAA held a two stage, thirteen man tournament to determine the first champion. As tends to happen in AAA tournaments, it was complicated more than most, though there was a greater emphasis on explaining the tournament. As with the previous tournament for the AAA minis championship, the final was a three-way, elimination match.

The title was irregularly defended over the next five years, frequently going many months without being exposed on television and often used as a way just to get a lot of midcarders onto a show. There were individual feuds teased, but singles matches were much more likely to take place on indy appearances.

In the lead up to TripleMania XXII, AAA declared both this championship and the AAA Fusion Championship would be unified into a new AAA World Cruiserweight Championship. Despite some confusion (mostly on this wiki's part), this cruiserweight championship is considered to have an unbroken lineage - it's being treated as the same championship, just a new belt.
