Mexican National Lightweight Championship
Encyclopedia
The Mexican National Lightweight Championship (Campeonato National de Peso Ligero in Spanish
) is a Mexican
professional wrestling
singles championship
created and sanctioned by Comisión de Box y Lucha Libre Mexico D.F. ("the Mexico City Boxing and Wrestling Commission" in Spanish). Although the Commission sanctions the title, it does not promote the events in which the title is defended. Being a professional wrestling championship, it is not won legitimately; it is instead won via a scripted ending to a match or awarded to a wrestler because of a storyline
. The official definition of the lightweight weight class in Mexico is between 63 kg (138.9 lb) and 70 kg (154.3 lb), but is not always strictly enforced.The most recent case of this is Mephisto
holding the NWA World Welterweight Championship
, a belt with a 78 kg (172 lb) upper limit, despite weighing 90 kg (198.4 lb). Since 2008, where the title was brought back after being inactive for approximately four years, it has served as a Mini-Estrellas (referred to as "Mini" for short) championship more than a weight class championship.
The Mexican National Lightweight Championship was created in 1934, making it one of the oldest wrestling championships in existence today. Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre
(CMLL; Spanish for World Wrestling Council) was given the promotional control of the title while the Commission only have to approve the champions.In this statement, "control" refers to the every day use of the title, determining which storylines the title is being used in, who gets to challenge for the title and how to use it in a public relations sense. Jack O'Brien
was recognized as the first champion in 1934, after winning a tournament sanctioned by Comisión de Box y Lucha Libre Mexico D.F. and promoted by CMLL. The championship has been Vacated on a number of occasions, most notably four times because the champion moved up a weight class, once because the champion was not Mexican citizen and once because the reigning champion, Guerrero Samurai, was killed in a car accident. Pierrothito
is the current Mexican National Lightweight Champion having defeated Mascarita Dorada
in a tournament final on September 23, 2008. He is the 48th overall champion and the 38th person to hold the title. Pierrothito is the first "Mini-Estrella
" to hold the title although Damiancito el Guerrero
won the title as a mini but changed his ring persona to "Virus" and moved up to the "regular" division with his title win. Rodolfo Ruiz has had the most reigns as champion, with three; Mishima Ota has the shortest reign, at 1 day. Black Shadow holds the record for the longest individual reign, at over 1,901 days, while Juan Diaz has held the championship 1,979 days divided over two reigns.
