Mexican National Cruiserweight Championship

The Mexican National Cruiserweight Championship (Campeonato Nacional Crucero in Spanish) is a national Mexican singles professional wrestling championship controlled by Comisión de Box y Lucha Libre Mexico D.F. (Mexico City Boxing and Wrestling Commission). From its establishment in 1983, no one promotion promoted the championship but was shared between several Mexican promotions, and not exclusively by Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL). In the mid-1990s AAA gained primary booking control of the championship. Being a professional wrestling championship, it was not won legitimately but via a scripted ending to a match or awarded to a wrestler because of a storyline. The official definition of the cruiserweight weightclass in Mexico is between 77 kg (170 lb) and 80 kg (180 lb).

Ángel Blanco became the first National Cruiserweight Champion when he won the inaugural tournament on November 13, 1984, defeating Insolito in the final. In the mid-1990s AAA gained control of the championship when title holder Blue Demon Jr. began working for AAA full-time. When Blue Demon Jr. lost the Cruiserweight Championship to Karis La Momia AAA took full control of the Championship. In 1996 Karis la Momia changed his ring character to La Parka Jr. and had to vacate the title since his history working as Karis was not publicly acknowledged by AAA at the time. In 1999 La Parka regained the title, becoming the only two-time champion. The title was seldom defended since from the early 2000s and it was officially vacated by AAA on December 8, 2008.
