The Caravana de Campeones (August 2013), Spanish for "Caravan of Champions", was a major professional wrestling show produced and scripted by the Mexican Lucha libre promotion International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG). The event took place on August 25, 2013 in IWRG's main arena Arena Naucalpan. The August 2013 version of the event was the sixth overall show IWRG has held under the Caravana de Campeones banner.
Four of the six matches were for championships while the remaining two were to determine number one contenders for championships. Due to Heddi Karaoui not appearing at the event IWRG made Oficial 911 face off against El Centvrión to determine the challenger for Dinamic Black's IWRG Rey del Ring Championship, the two wrestled to a draw and both challenged Dinamic Black who retained his title. Imposible successfully defended the IWRG Intercontinental Lightweight Championship, El Hijo del Pirata Morgan successfully defended the IWRG Intercontinental Middleweight Championship and Trauma II retaned the IWRG Junior de Juniors Championship.
Professional wrestling has a long running tradition of holding shows that feature several championship matches, and at times actually promotes shows as an "all championship matches" show. The earliest documented "All-Championship" show is the EMLL Carnaval de Campeones ("Carnival of Champions") held on January 13, 1965. In 2007 WWE held a pay-per-view called Vengeance: Night of Champions, making WWE Night of Champions a recurring theme. Starting in 2008 the Mexican lucha libre promotion International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) has held a regular major show labeled Caravana de Campeones, Spanish for "Caravan of Champions" using the same concept for a major annual show. All Caravana de Campeones shows have been held in Arena Naucalpan, IWRG's home arena, the location of all of their major shows through the years. The August 2013 show was the sixth time IWRG has held a Caravana de Campeones show, having not held one in 2010 but held twice in both 2012 and 2013.
