== Tournament Details ==
== Tournament Details ==


In June of 2009, CMLL announced a tournament of champions to determine the first ever CMLL Universal Champion. All CMLL normal men's division wrestlers who were current CMLL, NWA (later Historic) or Mexican National champions were able to participate, including tag team and trios champions.  
The CMLL Universal Tournament took the [[Leyenda de Plata]] event as the annual most prestigious CMLL tournament. It includes most (though not all) of CMLL's top wrestlers in a three week sixteen man single elimination tournament. Champions are drawn into two blocks and seeded by battle royal. The winner of each block face on the third week in a full three falls no time limit match. The winner of the tournament is awarded a red and gold belt, though the championship is not defended thru the year.  


By July 2010, it was finally clear this was meant to be an annual tournament, not a defended championship. It's still unclear if the defending champion automatically receives a birth in the following year's tournament. Reigning Universal champion Ultimo Guerrero was also CMLL World Heavyweight Champion during the second tournament.
Any CMLL men's division world or national champion is eligible for the tournament. The champions included are the CMLL set of championships ([[CMLL World Super Lightweight Championship|Lightweight]], [[CMLL World Welterweight Championship|Welterweight]], [[CMLL World Middleweight Championship|Middleweight]], [[CMLL World Light Heavyweight Championship|Light Heavyweight]], [[CMLL World Heavyweight Championship|Heavyweight]], [[CMLL World Tag Team Championship|Tag Team]], [[CMLL World Trios Championship|Trios]]), the NWA Historic Championships ([[NWA World Historic Welterweight Championship|Welterweight]], [[NWA World Historic Middleweight Championship|Middleweight]], [[NWA World Historic Light Heavyweight Championship|Light Heavyweight]]) and the Mexican National Championships held by CMLL men's luchadors ([[Mexican National Welterweight Championship|Welterweight]], [[Mexican National Light Heavyweight Championship|Light Heavyweight]], [[Mexican National Trios Championship|Trios]]). In 2019, the [[Mexican National Heavyweight Championship]] was added to the list. The [[Mexican National Lightweight Championship]] may also now be considered, though no reigning champion has entered the Universal tournament yet.


The CMLL Universal Tournament appears to have taken the place of the [[Leyenda de Plata]] event as the most prestigious tournament of the year.
The field is strictly for sixteen luchadors. Originally, CMLL had a maximum of eighteen possible champions for sixteen spots. That would lead to some wrestlers winning two or even three championships sometime during the year strictly for the purpose of having the right number of champions. In other years, a healthy champion has been quietly left out of the tournament. The increased number of champions starting in 2019 meant multiple champions were left out for the first time.
 
In addition to the listed champions, CMLL offered a spot to the IWGP Heavyweight Championship on two occasions as an explaination to include [[Hiroshi Tanahashi]]. Lesser championships have been used as explanations for injury replacements. Okumrua used the [[Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship|Arena Coliseo Tag Team Champion]] to fill in for Diamante Azul in 2013. Diamante Azul used the [[Occidente Heavyweight Championship]] in 2017 when Atlantis suffered a knee injury.
 
The couple months prior to the tournament frequently see title changes to shape the field for the tournament, both in getting the right people in and ending up at the right number. Winning the tournament is considered a major achievement in CMLL. The Universal tournament was moved to the August/September time frame after it's first year, and was frequently been used as a springboard for [[CMLL Anniversario]] matches.

[[Jushin Liger]], a member of [[NJPW]], was not in Mexico for the tournament and did not participate.
 
[[Diamante Azul]] was scheduled to participate in Block B, but was apparently hurt during the week. Okumura, presenting the [[Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship]] appeared in his place and became the first luchador only holding that championship to be in the tournament.
 
[[La Mascara]] & [[Mascara Dorada]] continued their streak of being in every year's tournament.

[[Mistico II]] missed the tournament due to an injury suffered in May.
 
[[La Mascara]] & [[Mascara Dorada]] both ended their record of appearing in every tournament. Dorada, [[Valiente]] and [[Stuka Jr.]] challenged [[Mr. Niebla]], [[Felino]] and [[Negro Casas]] for the national trios championship on [[August 17]]th, after Casas & Felino had been eliminated but before Mr. Niebla had competed. Peste Negra retained, and it remained unclear if one of the challengers would taken Niebla's spot in the tournament had he lost.

Euforia also held the [[CMLL World Trios Championship]]. No reason was given for his exclusion. CMLL has an unpublicized policy not allowing sons and fathers to be on opposite sides of matches, which may have led to CMLL choosing to decide to include Soberano Jr. over his father.
 
The [[Mexican National Heavyweight Championship]] was reactivated in 2018. This was the first edition where the championship was included.
 
This is also the first edition where the [[Mexican National Lightweight Championship]] may have been considered. The reigning champion, [[Electrico]], moved from the mini division to the main division in 2018. However, the championship has not been defended or even mentioned much in CMLL since the move.

== 2022 ==
 
CMLL's 2022 Universal Tournament was expanded to include 19 wrestlers. The tournament was broken into blocks for national, Historic (formerly NWA), and CMLL champions. Double champions could only participate in one block (and were split so there'd be no more than eight wrestlers in one block.)
 
=== Mexican National Championships ===
 
The Mexican National Championship block was held on [[April 8]] in [[Arena Mexico]].
 
Participating champions at time of block:

The third [[Mexican National Trios Championship|Mexican National Trios Champion]], [[Raziel]], was not expected to compete in the tournament as he was recovering from knee surgery. Unfortunately, Raziel passed away on April 4 after a car accident. CMLL honored him before the this block of the tournament started.
 
The Mexican National Welterweight Championship was in CMLL's possession but vacant at the time of the tournament.

Tournament Details

The CMLL Universal Tournament took the Leyenda de Plata event as the annual most prestigious CMLL tournament. It includes most (though not all) of CMLL's top wrestlers in a three week sixteen man single elimination tournament. Champions are drawn into two blocks and seeded by battle royal. The winner of each block face on the third week in a full three falls no time limit match. The winner of the tournament is awarded a red and gold belt, though the championship is not defended thru the year.

Any CMLL men's division world or national champion is eligible for the tournament. The champions included are the CMLL set of championships (Lightweight, Welterweight, Middleweight, Light Heavyweight, Heavyweight, Tag Team, Trios), the NWA Historic Championships (Welterweight, Middleweight, Light Heavyweight) and the Mexican National Championships held by CMLL men's luchadors (Welterweight, Light Heavyweight, Trios). In 2019, the Mexican National Heavyweight Championship was added to the list. The Mexican National Lightweight Championship may also now be considered, though no reigning champion has entered the Universal tournament yet.

The field is strictly for sixteen luchadors. Originally, CMLL had a maximum of eighteen possible champions for sixteen spots. That would lead to some wrestlers winning two or even three championships sometime during the year strictly for the purpose of having the right number of champions. In other years, a healthy champion has been quietly left out of the tournament. The increased number of champions starting in 2019 meant multiple champions were left out for the first time.

In addition to the listed champions, CMLL offered a spot to the IWGP Heavyweight Championship on two occasions as an explaination to include Hiroshi Tanahashi. Lesser championships have been used as explanations for injury replacements. Okumrua used the Arena Coliseo Tag Team Champion to fill in for Diamante Azul in 2013. Diamante Azul used the Occidente Heavyweight Championship in 2017 when Atlantis suffered a knee injury.

The couple months prior to the tournament frequently see title changes to shape the field for the tournament, both in getting the right people in and ending up at the right number. Winning the tournament is considered a major achievement in CMLL. The Universal tournament was moved to the August/September time frame after it's first year, and was frequently been used as a springboard for CMLL Anniversario matches.

Dorada, Valiente and Stuka Jr. challenged Mr. Niebla, Felino and Negro Casas for the national trios championship on August 17th, after Casas & Felino had been eliminated but before Mr. Niebla had competed. Peste Negra retained, and it remained unclear if one of the challengers would taken Niebla's spot in the tournament had he lost.

Euforia also held the CMLL World Trios Championship. No reason was given for his exclusion. CMLL has an unpublicized policy not allowing sons and fathers to be on opposite sides of matches, which may have led to CMLL choosing to decide to include Soberano Jr. over his father.

The Mexican National Heavyweight Championship was reactivated in 2018. This was the first edition where the championship was included.

This is also the first edition where the Mexican National Lightweight Championship may have been considered. The reigning champion, Electrico, moved from the mini division to the main division in 2018. However, the championship has not been defended or even mentioned much in CMLL since the move.

2022

CMLL's 2022 Universal Tournament was expanded to include 19 wrestlers. The tournament was broken into blocks for national, Historic (formerly NWA), and CMLL champions. Double champions could only participate in one block (and were split so there'd be no more than eight wrestlers in one block.)

The Mexican National Welterweight Championship was in CMLL's possession but vacant at the time of the tournament.
