CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship

The Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship was originally created in the mid-to-late 1960s by Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL; who would change their name to CMLL around 1990) as a secondary title to the Mexican National Tag Team Championship (then-called the EMLL Arena México Tag Team Championship), which was the promotion's top tag team title at the time. Records of champions from that era are sparse with no records of who was the first champion; nor are there any records of exactly when the title was abandoned in the 1980s. This is further complicated by the apparent existence of a second pair of Coliseo tag titles, exclusive to Arena Coliseos weekly Sunday shows - this page & lineage refer to a set of titles that were originally defended only on Tuesdays. When both Stone brothers left CMLL in 2005 to work for AAA the championship was finally declared vacant. On June 28, 2008, Stuka Jr. and Flash defeated Los Infernales to become the second CMLL Arena Coliseum Tag Team Champions of the modern age. Flash later changed his ring name to "Fuego". On March 3, 2013, La Fiebre Amarilla ("The Yellow Fever"; Namajague and Okumura) defeated Fuego and Stuka Jr. to become the third modern age CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Champions, ending the previous champions' four-and-a-half-year reign. On November 4, 2013, Delta and Guerrero Maya Jr. became the fourth modern age Arena Coliseo Tag Team Champions. After a long-running rivalry with the then-champions Delta and Guerrero Maya Jr., La Comando Caribeño ("The Caribbean Commando"; Misterioso Jr. and Sagrado) became the fifth modern day Arena Coliseo Tag Team Champions on February 28, 2015. ==Reigns==

, one-half of Los Bombardieros del Aire, the longest reigning champions to date. The current champions are Los Hermanos Calavera (Calavera Jr. I and Calavera Jr. II) in their first reign. They defeated El Triangulo (El Hijo del Villano III and Villano III Jr.) at CMLL 83. Aniversario Arena Coliseo on April 4, 2026 in Ciudad de Mexico. Guerrero Maya Jr. is the only wrestler to have two documented title reigns during the CMLL-era, as he previously held the titles with Delta. No team has held the championship more than once after it was brought back in 2000, but records indicate that team of Kung Fu and Kato Kung Lee held the championship on at least two separate occasions, possibly more. The current champions are also the shortest reigning champions of the modern age, , second to only to Namajague and Okumura's reign of 245 days, Black Terry, who was 64 years old at the time of his title victory, is the oldest person to win the Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship. The Panther was seventeen or eighteen years old at the time he won the championship, making him the youngest champion of at least the CMLL-era and possibly in the history of the championship. In 2005, after both Stone brothers left CMLL to work for AAA, the championship was finally declared vacant. ==Rules==

The CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship is designed for tag team competition only, teams of two, and has not allowed neither individual wrestlers to hold the championship by themselves nor teams of three to share the championship. The championship is considered a secondary championship for the tag team division; with the CMLL World Tag Team Championship being the primary championship for the tag team division in CMLL. As it is a professional wrestling championship, its holders are determined by promoters or promotions, not by athletic competition. CMLL promotes a number of championships with the "world" label as well as a number of championships restricted by geographical locations such as the Mexican National Championships, or the Guadalajara specific Occidente championships, but the CMLL Arena Coliseo Tag Team Championship was created specifically for Arena Coliseo in Mexico City. Arena Coliseo was once CMLL's primary venue with CMLL founder Salvador Lutteroth financing the construction of the building in the 1940s. While CMLL also promotes shows in "Arena Coliseo" in Guadalajara on a regular basis, and occasionally in other regional Arena Coliseos across Mexico it has restricted championship matches to Arena Coliseo in Mexico City. CMLL has only allowed the championship to be defended outside of Arena Coliseo in Mexico City on a few occasions, primarily in Arena México when the regularly scheduled Arena Coliseo shows had to be moved. In January 2016, CMLL allowed the championship to be defended in Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, as part of the Fantastica Mania 2016 tour. The championship has only been won and lost in Arena Coliseo, except for when Black Terry and Negro Navarro won the championship in Arena Naucalpan. ==Tournaments==

2000 CMLL held a one-night, eight-team tournament on November 7, 2000, to determine the first CMLL Arena Coloseo Tag Team Champions of the modern era, bringing the titles back after abandoning them in the 1980s. 2008 CMLL held a 16-team tournament in 2008; the top half of the bracket took place on June 15, the bottom half on June 19 and the finals took place on June 29, 2008. CMLL held a 16-team elimination tournament starting on February 24, 2018, with subsequent tournament matches taking place on March 5 and the finals on March 11. In the end Esfinge and Tritón defeated Disturbio and Virus to win the vacant championship. ==Title history==
