Reyes del Aire (Spanish for "Kings of the Air") is an annual professional wrestling tournament produced by Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). Established in 2005, the event has been held annually except in 2010, 2018, and 2021. Two editions of the tournament took place in 2007, 2012, 2014, 2017, 2024, and 2026. As of March 2026, 18 different wrestlers have won the tournament out of 119 total competitors across 25 editions in the tournament's history; CMLL only officially recognizes 22 editions and 15 different tournament winners. The current winner is Raider, who won the 2026 Puebla edition, but this tournament is not officially recognized by CMLL.
Unlike the standard single-elimination tournament format, the Reyes del Aire tournament only consists of a single round and a single elimination match with a varying even number of competitors. The tournament typically features wrestlers whose style consists of high-flying aerial techniques. Its format is a torneo cibernetico, where the field of competitors is evenly split into two factions: técnicos and rudos. The last remaining competitor in the match is declared the winner of the tournament and named the Rey del Aire. The winner of the tournament also receives a trophy.
CMLL holds a similar tournament for their Mini-Estrella division called Pequeños Reyes del Aire (Spanish for "Little Kings of the Air").
Format
Unlike the standard single-elimination tournament format, the Reyes del Aire tournament only consists of a single round and a single elimination match with a varying even number of competitors. The tournament format is a torneo cibernetico, a multi-man elimination match where two teams face off against each other. It uses standard lucha libre tag team rules with elimination occurring with a pinfall, submission, disqualification, and countout and allows a wrestler to enter the match when their tag team partner exits the ring as well as when they tag out. A batting order system is occasionally used to impose a strict order of entry for every competitor. If two or more competitors from the same team remain, they must face each other to determine a sole winner.[1]
The tournament typically features wrestlers whose style consists of high-flying aerial techniques.[2] The field of competitors is evenly split between técnicos and rudos. Despite the tournament not being a standard tag team match, competitors mainly work as a faction depending on whether they are a técnico or a rudo. The last remaining competitor in the match is declared the winner of the tournament and named the Rey del Aire. The winner of the tournament also receives a trophy.[1]
List of Reyes del Aire winners
As of March 2026, there have been 25 tournaments with 18 different winners. Although, only 22 tournaments and 15 different winners are officially recognized by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre.[2] Volador Jr. is the inaugural tournament winner, winning it in 2005.
