Talk:Mexican National Light Heavyweight Championship
The most recent title defense against Pierroth Jr. was Mosco Pierroth, not unmasked fat Pierroth.--Robert 16:33, 31 March 2006 (CST)
This thread claims Vangelis is the current champion, but we don't have a date, location or any other confirmation. --thecubsfan 21:14, 5 May 2007 (EDT)
Was the Vangelis win ever confirmed? I don't see why Dandy could job his National Title to a guy that wrestles part-time and isn't near his level.--Robert 20:47, 7 May 2007 (EDT)
I got my info from an email group i'm involved in that follows title histories. I wouldn't have posted it had I not believed it was legit.--JT179 7 May 2007 (EDT)
I'm on the same mailing list but it'd still be nice to have an actual source. I have all four major magazines from that time period and none of them mention the change or such a match ever taking place in the lineups section.--Robert 20:57, 7 May 2007 (EDT)

renumbering
I don't want to redo the whole page to add Chucho Anaya as the first reign, at least not without a year or a date, but it's probably accurate. --thecubsfan (talk) 13:52, 12 May 2016 (PDT)
I found this: Chucho Anaya is Jesus Anaya. CMLL has he became the first ever National Light Heavyweight Champion by defeating Black Guzmán in finals of a long tournament to decide the inaugural champion. That occurred on September, 1942 at EMLL 9th Anniversario show. [1] This other link has the exact date as September 18, 1942[2], this has September 23[3], and Wikipedia has September 25, 1942 (citing Súper Luchas) [4].
Well, I'm more used to renumbering now (though an automated way of doing it would be better). Box Y Lucha lists it as September 23rd so I'll go with that.
Box Y Lucha 905 history:

This magazine was published in 1970 but is missing the most reigns. Perhaps the series is a reprint from a few years prior? The Espanto title reigns are missing.
