Tournament history

CMLL has held ten tournaments so far since in 2010 with each consisting of 16 teams competing in a single elimination tournament with 8 teams competing in the first three rounds of the tournament in one night and the final match held a week after Block B has wrestled. The teams are announced ahead of time but the match order and the pairing of teams for the tournament is determined by a

Battle royal with a competitor from each team that determines the match order, i.e. the first two wrestlers eliminated will have to face off in the first match of the first round and so on. The "Seeding Battle Royal" is common practice for a number of CMLL Tag Team tournaments but not generally used much outside of CMLL.[2] Each finalist team will have to wrestle and win three times in one night to qualify for the finale. In 2010 and 2011 the tournament final was held on CMLL's weekly Super Viernes, but in 2012 the finale was held during the 2012 Homenaje a Dos Leyendas Super show instead as it replaced Super Viernes.[16] The 2013 Torneo Nacional de Parejas Increíbles started on Friday March 1 and ran until March 15, 2013 with the final taking place on the 2013 Homenaje a Dos Leyendas.[6]
The 2014 Torneo has been announced as starting on February 20 and if it stays with the traditional format will hold the finals on March 6, 2015.

Over the course of the five tournaments so far 57 individual wrestlers have competed in the 70 matches and only four individuals have won the tournament,

Diamante Azul, who participated in the 2011 tournament under his previous ring identity of "Metro" and in the 2013 under his current ring character Diamante Azul. Rush worked under the name "Rouge" in 2010 and Rush in 2011 and since then, this does not signify two different ring personas, just a slight name change.[Note 1]

At times the team members will be part of a pre-existing

Marco Corleone, participated.[18]
