WWA Tag Team Championship (Mexico)
Encyclopedia
The WWA World Tag Team Championship (Campeonato Mundial de Parejas WWA in Spanish
) is a Mexican
professional wrestling
Tag Team
championship
promoted by the Mexican Lucha Libre
wrestling based promotion
World Wrestling Association
(WWA) since 1991. Being 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
.
It was first won by Silver King
and El Texano
in a championship tournament held in May 1991. The current champions are Hector Garza
and Perro Aguayo, Jr.
, when the team won the championship both wrestlers worked for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre
(CMLL) but since then Perro Aguayo, Jr. has left CMLL and started his own promotion (Perros del Mal) and it is unlikely that CMLL would allow Garza to team with Aguayo, Jr. any more rendering the title in effect vacant.
