The CMLL Universal Championship is an annual tournament exclusively for wrestlers who hold a CMLL-recognized championship at the time of the tournament. The tournament was first held in 2009, but not held in 2018 for unexplained reasons, making the 2019 version the tenth overall tournament. Being a professional wrestling tournament, it is not won legitimately; it is instead won via predetermined outcomes to the matches that is kept secret from the general public. In the finals of the 2019 tournament Mexican National Heavyweight Champion El Terrible defeated the CMLL World Light Heavyweight Champion Niebla Roja to become a two-time tournament winner.
