AAA World Cruiserweight Championship

File:Alex_Koslov.JPG became the inaugural champion when he defeated Alan Stone and Xtreme Tiger in 2009]]

The inaugural champion was Alex Koslov, who defeated Alan Stone and Xtreme Tiger at AAA Television Taping on May 21, 2009, in Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes. On August 17, 2014, at Triplemanía XXII, the Cruiserweight Champion Daga defended the title in a 10-man elimination match, where also participated the AAA Fusion Champion Fénix. El Hijo del Fantasma won the match and unified both titles, deactivating the Fusion Championship and renaming the title as AAA World Cruiserweight Championship. On February 10, 2021, the champion Laredo Kid faced the Major League Wrestling's World Middleweight Champion Lio Rush in a title vs. title match. Despite Rush winning the match and being recognized as champion, a few days later AAA did not recognize the title change. Instead, Laredo Kid appeared on AAA show with the title belt. According to Konnan, an AAA booker, Rush lost the title back to Laredo Kid in a un-televised match. On May 5, Laredo Kid appeared in MLW Fusion with the AAA title, making an in-character statement where he refused to recognize Rush as champion.{{cite web|url=https://solowrestling.mundodeportivo.com/new/98105-mlw-aclara-situacion-lio-rush-campeonato-crucero-aaa|title = MLW Fusion: Laredo Kid se presenta en pantalla con el Campeonato Crucero de AAA|date=May 6, 2021}}

Laredo Kid is the longest reigning champion at 1,218 days. During his reign, Laredo Kid was defeated by Lio Rush in a unification match to unify the AAA World Cruiserweight Championship with Rush's MLW World Middleweight Championship – though this reign was not recognized by AAA. The shortest reigning champion was Alex Koslov who held the title for 9 days from August 21, 2009 to August 30, 2009. Koslov and Xtreme Tiger have held the title the most times with 2 championship reigns. The youngest champion is Daga who won at the age of 24 years and 136 days. The oldest champion is Juventud Guerrera who won at the age of 37 years and 178 days.
