The '''Lucha World Cup 2017''', is a professional wrestling trios tournament produced by [[AAA|Lucha Libre AAA World Wide]] (AAA). It was the third annual edition of the tournament. All matches will take place outside of Mexico for the first time. It will also be a 2v2 tag team tournament, instead of the usual trios format. 

All matches will take place on [[October 10]]th, at [[Tokyo]]'s [[Korakuen Hall]]. There is now women's division tournament was implemented this year; AAA explained they were unable to get enough participants. 

The match format was slightly changed. The original match is ten minute round. Should there not be a winner in that time, there will be a three minute singles match with a selected person from each team. If there is still not a decision, the other two wrestlers will fight. If there still is not a winner after both singles matches, five judges will select the winner.
