[[ | [[Futuro (2019)|Futuro]] defeated [[Gallo Jr.]], [[Max Star]], [[Meyer]], [[Rafaga Jr.]], [[Brillante Jr.]], [[Rayo Metalico]] and [[Misterio Blanco]] on 30 July 2023 in [[Arena Mexico]] | ||

History for this championship in the mid-90s is completely unknown. It may have been defended or changed hands in Arena Coliseo Guadalajara between champions listed; there aren't complete records of that period. | |||
In late 90s version of this championship, it was used to transition a mini ([[Damiancito el Guerrero]], who soon became Virus) into his new role as a full-sized wrestler. Virus lost the belt to [[Ricky Marvin]], in similar bid to give more spotlight to a small wrestler. Marvin lost in turn to [[Loco Max]], who was a local [[Arena Puebla]] wrestler at the time. If there were further plans for the championship, they were forgotten after Loco Max joined the main CMLL roster (thru the [[Guapos U]] group) in 2002. Luchas 2000's special on the history of the Mexican National Championships included an interview with Loco Max, who said he vacated this championship, but no specific date was mentioned. | |||
As usual, CMLL brought this championship back with no notice or advance warning in [[2008]], announcing a lineup for a tournament to decide a new champion without previously mentioning the title would be returning. It never seemed to be officially announced as such, but the championship has clearly been repurposed as a minis championship, secondary to the [[CMLL World Minis Championship]]. All wrestlers in the tournament to decide a new champion were minis, and no normal size wrestler has challenged for it. (No minis wrestler has either, due to the lack of defenses.) It's not said why the [[Mexican National Minis Championship]], a title which exists for this very use, is not being used by CMLL, but the assumption is they don't actually have control of the title. | As usual, CMLL brought this championship back with no notice or advance warning in [[2008]], announcing a lineup for a tournament to decide a new champion without previously mentioning the title would be returning.

Current Champion
Futuro defeated Gallo Jr., Max Star, Meyer, Rafaga Jr., Brillante Jr., Rayo Metalico and Misterio Blanco on 30 July 2023 in Arena Mexico
History of Championship
History for this championship in the mid-90s is completely unknown. It may have been defended or changed hands in Arena Coliseo Guadalajara between champions listed; there aren't complete records of that period.
In late 90s version of this championship, it was used to transition a mini (Damiancito el Guerrero, who soon became Virus) into his new role as a full-sized wrestler. Virus lost the belt to Ricky Marvin, in similar bid to give more spotlight to a small wrestler. Marvin lost in turn to Loco Max, who was a local Arena Puebla wrestler at the time. If there were further plans for the championship, they were forgotten after Loco Max joined the main CMLL roster (thru the Guapos U group) in 2002. Luchas 2000's special on the history of the Mexican National Championships included an interview with Loco Max, who said he vacated this championship, but no specific date was mentioned.
As usual, CMLL brought this championship back with no notice or advance warning in 2008, announcing a lineup for a tournament to decide a new champion without previously mentioning the title would be returning. It never seemed to be officially announced as such, but the championship has clearly been repurposed as a minis championship, secondary to the CMLL World Minis Championship. All wrestlers in the tournament to decide a new champion were minis, and no normal size wrestler has challenged for it. (No minis wrestler has either, due to the lack of defenses.) It's not said why the Mexican National Minis Championship, a title which exists for this very use, is not being used by CMLL, but the assumption is they don't actually have control of the title.
The lightweight division has rarely had the prominence of the other weight divisions and is usually skipped by most promotions. Perhaps because of this championship switching over to the minis division, CMLL has brought back the CMLL World Super Lightweight Championship to fill this niche.
