Cuatro y Medio Euskadi Championship

Last updated

The Cuatro y Medio Euskadi Championship is an individual championship of Basque pelota, often known as The Cage due to the front-on setup. Cuatro y Medio means Four and a half. The rules state that every ball that rebounds too far from that particular mark is considered pasa (fail). This makes it a game of precision, more than one of power.

The CMLL World Middleweight Championship is a professional wrestling world championship promoted by the Mexican wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL).

The official definition of the middleweight division in Mexico is a person between 82 kg (181 lb) and 87 kg (192 lb), but the weight limits are not strictly adhered to.
