The CMLL Campeonato Universal (Universal Championship) is an annual Lucha Libre Tournament that occurs since 2009. The tournament format is usually billed as a “tournament of champions”, with sixteen male CMLL Champions participating throughout qualifying matches. Último Guerrero and El Terrible are known as the only two-time winners of the tournament. The 2026 version will witness a first-time winner. Black Tiger is currently one half of the Mexican National Tag Team Champions while Máscara Dorada is currently the World Historic Welterweight Champion. Hechicero is the most recent champion on the participants list as he recently defeated Claudio Castagnoli for the CMLL World Heavyweight Championship at Homenaje a Dos Leyendas last month.
