IWRG Caravana de Campeones


Caravana de Campeones is a major professional wrestling show series produced and scripted by the Mexican lucha libre promotion International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) on a near-annual basis since its inception in 2008. The focal point of the shows are the various championships promoted by IWRG, both those actually branded as IWRG championships as well as other championships promoted by IWRG. These can be either long term or short term such as the Distrito Federal Trios Championship which has been under IWRG's control since 2007, or the WWS World Welterweight Championship which IWRG has on occasion used on their shows.

For most major lucha libre shows the main events are usually a Lucha de Apuesta, or "bet match", where competitors risk their wrestling mask or hair, but for the Caravana de Campeones series the main event has always been a championship match, with several championship matches on the undercard as well. The 2015 Caravana de Campeones show was the ninth show held under that banner since 2008, with two held in both 2012 and 2013 but none in 2010. In addition to the official IWRG championships the IWRG promoters have also used both the WWS World Welterweight Championship and the AIWA Argentinian National Cruiserweight Championship despite not being official championships.

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". They did not hold a Caravana de Campeones show in 2010, but in both 2012 and 2013 held two shows during the year under the Caravana de Campeones banner.
