History
The Campeones de Parejas were introduced in February 2006. The creation of the titles was the foundation of that year's Tag World Grand Prix tag team tournament, scheduled to be the final TWGP for the promotion. The titles were to be awarded to the winning team of the tournament. The eventual winners were the team of Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli, the Kings of Wrestling who defeated Milano Collection AT and Skayde (Team Dragondoor) in the finals of the tournament to be crowned the first Campeones de Parejas.
Earning a title shot
This title, when compared to other titles is unorthodox due to the nature of how a team earns a title shot. A team becomes eligible to challenge for the Campeones de Parejas as soon as they earn 3 points. Teams rack up points by winning tag team matches, as soon as they get the 3 points, they can challenge the reigning Campeones for the titles. However, if they lose a match the team loses all of their points and must start again. Essentially, when a duo wins three tag team matches in a row they are eligible to have a title shot. Per Lucha Libre tradition, the actual title defense will be Campeones vs. Retadores in Two out of Three Falls match.
Current champions
The current campeones are Fire Ant and Worker Ant, collectively known as The Colony. They wont the titles from Amasis and Ophidian at Hiding In Plain Sight in Nashua, New Hampshire on September 13, 2009.
