Since its creation in 1942, the championship has not been promoted by one specific promotion throughout its existence, but shared between many Mexican promotions. Among others, Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL), Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA), the ENSEMA promotion and the Independent circuit but since December 2007 Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) has had the exclusive rights to the championship. 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 The official definition of the Light Heavyweight weight class in Mexico is between 92 kg (203 lb) and 97 kg (214 lb), but the weight limits for the different classes are not always strictly enforced.
