The UWA World Light Heavyweight Championship (Campeonato Mundial Semi Completo de UWA in Spanish) is a singles professional wrestling championship initially promoted by the Mexican Lucha Libre wrestling based promotion Universal Wrestling Association (UWA) from 1975 until the UWA closed in 1995 and since then been defended on the Mexican independent circuit until 2007. By the year 2000 the title became a mainstay in Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) when it was won by El Zorro who worked for AAA. The official definition of the Light Heavyweight weight class in Mexico is between 92 kg (203 lb) and 97 kg (214 lb), but is not always strictly enforced. [a] [1]

Contents

Chessman was the last UWA Light Heavyweight champion recognized by Asistencia Asesoría y Administración having defeated El Zorro in April, 2007. [2] in 2007 Chessman competed in the tournament to crown the first ever AAA Mega Champion and put his title on the line in the tournament. In the finals he lost to El Mesias by disqualification, while the title does not change hands on a disqualification the UWA World Light Heavyweight Championship was eliminated as the purpose of the tournament was to find one top champion and clear up the muddled championship picture in AAA.

As a professional wrestling championship, the championship is not won not by actual competition, but by a scripted ending to a match determined by the bookers and match makers. [b] On occasion the promotion declares a championship vacant, which means there is no champion at that point in time. This can either be due to a storyline, [c] or real life issues such as a champion suffering an injury being unable to defend the championship, [d] or leaving the company. [e]

There have been a total of 45 reigns shared between 29 different champions. The current title holder is Misa Kagura, who is in her first reign.

The NWA World Light Heavyweight Championship was a professional wrestling championship sanctioned by the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). For the majority of its existence the title was promoted by Mexican promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), where it was known in Spanish as the Campeonato Mundial Semi Completo de NWA. It began as an official National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) title and was given to the NWA's Mexican affiliate, Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre, to control. The title was also promoted in NWA Hollywood Wrestling until Hollywood Wrestling's closure in 1982. The title remained under the control of EMLL even after EMLL pulled out of the NWA and changed its name to Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre. Due to its history, it was considered one of the most important titles in EMLL/CMLL. As it was a professional wrestling championship, it was not won legitimately; it was instead won via a scripted ending to a match or awarded to a wrestler because of a storyline. The official definition of the light heavyweight weight class in Mexico is between 92 kg (203 lb) and 97 kg (214 lb), but this was not always strictly enforced.
