The first tournament was hosted exclusively in [[Arena Coliseo Guadalajara]], on the weekly ''Martes de Glamour'' show.<ref>https://thecubsfan.com/cmll/2022/04/13/cmll-lucha-tour-guerra-del-golfo/</ref> It consisted of 4 teams of 4 ''luchadors'', representing 4 cities:
* Guadalajara: [[Obelisk]], [[Persa]], [[Rav|Raven]], [[Temerario]]
* Mexico City: [[Huitzil]], [[Sangre Imperial]], [[Capitán Suicida|Suicida]], [[Valiente Jr. (2020s)|Valiente Jr.]]
* Queretaro: [[Ángel Rebelde (Querétaro)|Ángel Rebelde]], [[Espíritu Negro Jr.]], [[Halcón Negro Jr.]], [[Samuray Azteca]]
* Torreon: [[Hijo de Blue Panther|Cachorro]], [[Misterio Blanco (2021)|Misterio Blanco]], [[Misterio Negro (2021)|Misterio Negro]], [[Mascara Dorada 2.0|Panterita del Ring Jr.]]

Unlike all subsequent tournaments, this was a Round Robin format, entirely consisting of 2-out-of-3 falls [[Relevos atómicos|Atomicos matches]]:

Instead of a 6th tiebreaking match between Escuela Lagunera and Escuela Capitalina on May 24, the tournament seemingly skipped a week & reset, with all 4 teams competing in a one-night round robin tournament of one-fall Atomicos matches on [[May 31]] (ironically, started by Lagunera vs Capitalina):

Somehow, this culminated in:

* a final in which Escuela Capitalina beat Escuela Queretana to win the whole tournament

This year expanded the tournament from four schools to six. A [[Queretaro]] team was added, and the “Comarca Lagunera” regional team was split into the two major cities in the area: [[Torreón|Torreon]], [[Coahuila]], and [[Gomez Palacio]], [[Durango (state)|Durango]]. The teams were also lowered to 5 members each, and the format was changed to allow for three semifinals and a 3-way 5v5v5 final.

CMLL held the tumbler draw for the team seedings on the [[February 12]] CMLL Informa. On the same show, they announced that [[Angel Azteca Jr. (2020s)|Angel Azteca Jr.]] (Gomez Palacio) and [[Turbo (Laguna)|Turbo]] (Torreon) did not pass medical testing and thus would not participate. CMLL did not book in alternates, which put the Laguna teams at a disadvantage.

== 2026 ==
This year's format was drastically revamped (presumably to accommodate a far higher percentage of Mexico City trainees that year). It was instead a single-elimination tag team tournament, featured 12 teams who had been paired up based on their individual trainer. Each team also wore matching armbands of different colors.

Latest revision as of 10:56, 17 June 2026

Torneo de Escuelas is a tournament held since 2023 that pits the latest graduates from CMLL's multiple training schools against one another, to both showcase them and prove the supremacy of their specific trainers.

Edition Date Winner
2022 May 31, 2022 Team CDMX
2023 March 3, 2023 Team Guadalajara
2024 February 23, 2024 Team CDMX
2025 February 28, 2025 Team CDMX
2026 February 27, 2026 Team CDMX (Magia Blanca)

2022

The first tournament was hosted exclusively in Arena Coliseo Guadalajara, on the weekly Martes de Glamour show.[1] It consisted of 4 teams of 4 luchadors, representing 4 cities:

Unlike all subsequent tournaments, this was a Round Robin format, entirely consisting of 2-out-of-3 falls Atomicos matches:

April 191 Capitalina (1-0) Queretana (0-1)
April 26 Lagunera (1-0) Tapatia (0-1)
May 3 Queretana (1-1) Tapatia (0-2)

Instead of a 6th tiebreaking match between Escuela Lagunera and Escuela Capitalina on May 24, the tournament seemingly skipped a week & reset, with all 4 teams competing in a one-night round robin tournament of one-fall Atomicos matches on May 31 (ironically, started by Lagunera vs Capitalina):

Match Winner Loser
1 Lagunera (1-0) Capitalina (0-1)
2 Queretana (1-0) Tapatia (0-1)
32 Lagunera (2-0) Tapatia (0-2)
4 Capitalina (1-1) Queretana (1-1)
5 Queretana (2-1) Lagunera (2-1)
5 Capitalina (2-1) Tapatia (0-3)

Somehow, this culminated in:

  • a 3rd place decider in which Escuela Tapatia beat Escuela Lagunera, and
  • a final in which Escuela Capitalina beat Escuela Queretana to win the whole tournament
POS Wrestler W L
1 Escuela Capitalina 4 1
2 Escuela Queretana 3 3
3 Escuela Lagunera 4 1
4 Escuela Tapatia 0 6


(Hypothetically, the standings might make mathematical sense if we assume each individual fall in the first stage counted for a point, and ended up as:

POS Wrestler W L
1 Escuela Capitalina 6 2-3
2 Escuela Queretana 6 5-6
3 Escuela Lagunera 6 2-3
4 Escuela Tapatia 0-3 9

with Escuela Queretana having advanced for beating Escuela Lagunera on the night of the final.

...Alternatively, the results are simply in error - see below for examples of inconsistency - and/or CMLL didn't keep track of the maths themselves.)

The inaugural tournament featured 4 teams:

2025

This year expanded the tournament from four schools to six. A Queretaro team was added, and the “Comarca Lagunera” regional team was split into the two major cities in the area: Torreon, Coahuila, and Gomez Palacio, Durango. The teams were also lowered to 5 members each, and the format was changed to allow for three semifinals and a 3-way 5v5v5 final.

CMLL held the tumbler draw for the team seedings on the February 12 CMLL Informa. On the same show, they announced that Angel Azteca Jr. (Gomez Palacio) and Turbo (Torreon) did not pass medical testing and thus would not participate. CMLL did not book in alternates, which put the Laguna teams at a disadvantage.

Turbo was medically disqualified from competing for Team Torreon, making the match a 5-on-4 handicap.

2026

This year's format was drastically revamped (presumably to accommodate a far higher percentage of Mexico City trainees that year). It was instead a single-elimination tag team tournament, featured 12 teams who had been paired up based on their individual trainer. Each team also wore matching armbands of different colors.
