The CMLL World Trios Championship (Campeonato Mundial Trios de CMLL in Spanish) is the primary professional wrestling three-man tag team championship promoted by the Mexican Lucha Libre wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL; Spanish for "World Wrestling Council") since 1993. Before the CMLL World Trios Championship was created, the Mexican National Trios Championship was the primary Trios championship in CMLL; since 1993, the Mexican National title has been relegated to a secondary championship compared to the CMLL World Trios Championship. As it is 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. All title matches take place under two out of three falls rules.
The first champions to be recognized by CMLL were MS-1, Pirata Morgan and El Satánico (a team known as Los Infernales ; Spanish for "The Infernals") who defeated the team of El Brazo, Brazo de Oro and Brazo de Plata (known collectively as Los Brazos; Spanish for "The Arms") in the finals of a 16-team tournament. The current champions are Máscara Dorada, Star Jr. and Neón, who are in their first reign as a team, but second for Neón and first for Dorada and Star Jr. individually. They defeated Los Bárbaros (Bárbaro Cavernario, Dragon Rojo Jr. and El Terrible) at CMLL Martes De Arena Mexico on July 16, 2024, in Mexico City, Mexico; they are the 36th overall championship team. TThere have been 33 overall championship reigns; in total, 70 individuals have formed 33 championship teams. La Ola Amarilla ("The Yellow Wave"; Okumura, Hiroshi Tanahashi and Taichi) held the championship the shortest time, at 14 days. Black Warrior, Blue Panther and Dr. Wagner Jr. hold the record for the longest single reign of any team, but due to the uncertainty of when the championship was vacated it can only be verified that they held them for a minimum of 1,141 days. [Note 1] Dr. Wagner Jr.'s four reigns combine to 2,051 days, the highest of any wrestler. Los Infernales and the team of El Hijo del Fantasma, Héctor Garza and La Máscara (Collectively known as Los Ángeles Rebeldes; "The Rebel Angels") are the only two trios to have won the title twice; Héctor Garza also holds the record for most individual reigns, with five reigns as part of four teams. The championship has been vacated six times, either because one or more members of the team left the promotion or because a team split up; each time a tournament was held to determine the new champions.

Since its creation in 1985 the championship has been promoted by several major Mexican wrestling promotions, Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL), Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) and is currently promoted by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre. The change from promotion to promotion was approved by the commission if the trios champions left one promotion to work for the other. As it is a professional wrestling championship, it is not won or lost competitively, but instead by the decision of the bookers of a wrestling promotion. The title is awarded to a team after the team "wins" a match to maintain the illusion that professional wrestling is a competitive sport. All title matches take place under two-out-of-three falls rules.
