CMLL World Mini-Estrellas Championship

The CMLL World Mini-Estrellas Championship (Campeonato Mundial Mini-Estrellas de CMLL in Spanish), also known as the CMLL World Pequeño Estrellas Championship (Campeonato Mundial Pequeno Estrellas de CMLL in Spanish) is a professional wrestling championship promoted by the Mexican Lucha libre wrestling-based promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL; Spanish for "World Wrestling Council"). The championship is exclusively competed for in the Mini-Estrellas, or Minis, division. A "Mini" is not necessarily a person with dwarfism, as in North American Midget wrestling, and can also be short wrestlers who work in the Mini-Estrellas division; although wrestlers with dwarfism can compete for the title, there also exists the CMLL World Micro-Estrellas Championship, exclusive to them.Template:Efn The championship was created in 1992 and is the oldest active Mini-Estrella title in Mexico;Template:Efn both the Mexican National Mini-Estrella Championship and the Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) World Mini-Estrella Championship were introduced after CMLL created their Mini-Estrella championship.Template:Efn 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.Template:Efn All title matches take place under two out of three falls rules.Template:Efn

The CMLL World Mini-Estrella Championship was created in early 1992 to give CMLL's Mini-Estrellas division a championship as its focal point. The first champion was Mascarita Sagrada, who won a four-man tournament on March 1, 1992, by defeating Espectrito in the final.Template:Efn When the creator of CMLL's Minis division, Antonio Peña, left CMLL to form his own promotion, AAA, Mascarita Sagrada and many other Minis left CMLL to join AAA.Template:Efn After Mascarita Sagrada left the promotion, the title was vacant until September 1992, when Orito won the championship in a match against El Felinito.Template:Efn In 1999, in a so-called "Phantom title switch", then-champion Damiancito el Guerrero had the championship stripped and given to Último Dragoncito without a match taking place. Damiancito had begun working under the ring name "Virus" in the "regular-sized" division for more than a year and thus no longer qualified as a Mini. Instead of vacating the title or making Virus lose it in a match, CMLL announced that Último Dragoncito had "won" the title on an undisclosed date in October 1999.Template:Efn

In addition to being the first champion, Mascarita Sagrada is also the first wrestler to have vacated the title; he is also the wrestler to have held the title the shortest amount of time, at 110 days. Último Dragoncito is the current champion in his record-setting third reign. He defeated Mercurio on November 17, 2023, at Super Viernes. Pequeño Olímpico has held the title the longest of any champion, at 1,442 days for a single reign and 2,744 for his combined two reigns.
