AAA Reina de Reinas
Current Champion
The championship is current vacant, pending a title tournament.
Championship History
Reina de Reinas was an annual AAA tournament, similar to it's male counterpart, Rey de Reyes. The championship was more an award than an defended championship, though it is put on the line in between Reina de Reinas matches occasionally. Early Reinas de Reinas followed the same format as the male tournament - 16 person tournaments made up of 4 four way semifinals and a final - but the format changed to a battle royal where the final four would advance in later years.
After 2008, the annual tournament format was abandoned, and the title belt instead become a defended women's championship.

Transition To Regular Championship
AAA ceased running annual Reina de Reinas tournaments after the 2008 tournament. The Reina de Reinas belt was defended like a standard women's championship from that point on. Defenses are listed in the title history.
On September 26, 2009, as part of the Heroes Inmortales III show, Sexi Star beat Fabi Apache in a bull terrier match to win the championship.
Mari Apache's championship win came in a trios match, where the AAA World Mixed Tag Team Championship were also on the line and whoever got the pin got the championship of whoever lost.
Mari lost the championship in a multi-woman match. She was beat before the finish by guest wrestler Mickie James, but James was kissed and defeated by Pimpinela Escarlata to win the match. Pimpinela, an exotico, became the first male to win the championship in 2011.
Sexi Star won the title a second time at Guerra de Titanes, 2011. The match versus Pimpinela Escarlata was a lumberjack strap match, with a distraction caused by the lumberjacks leading to the title switch.
Sexi Star held the championship for more than a year before vacating the championship on AAA TV in February 2013 for reasons not totally explained.
2012
AAA brought back the Reina de Reinas tournament format for a special co-promoted show with WAVE promotion from Japan on November 27, 2012 in Korakuen Hall. There was a four lucahdora field for a one night tournament.
