CMLL Sangre Nueva Tournament
A CMLL tournament focusing on the 'new blood' of CMLL. This tournament debuted in 2012, and surprisingly returned the following year. It appears to have been replaced by La Copa Jr. tournaments since that time.
The tournament is held over three consecutive Tuesday Arena Mexico shows. The first two weeks feature blocks of luchadors for a cibernetico. The two block winners meet in a three falls match on the third week.
2012
This was the first year of the tournament. It was billed as showcase for young luchadors. In practice, this was an odd mix of young luchadors who mostly worked openers, slightly more experienced luchadors who worked in the midcard, and very experienced luchadors who have new-ish characters. Blocks were eight wrestlers each. Battle royals were used to set the teams.

March 20th final
Dragon Lee defeated Raziel to win the tournament in three falls. Dragon Lee was awarded a cup for his victory and slightly moved up the card (though other developments soon moved him up faster.)
2013
The same format was followed in 2013, though there were fewer veterans and only wrestlers who worked primarily the first or second matches were involved. Blocks were expanded to 10 each. There was no seeding battle royal this year, just tecnicos versus rudos. Times are taken from the television airing of each match.
