Current Champion
Atlantis with title, 2005
Atlantis is the current NWA Light Heavyweight Champion, having beaten Dr. Wagner Jr. on 05/07/22 in Arena Mexico.
History of Championship
The NWA World Lightweight Championship was created in the early 1950s. In it's first years, it was a United States title, but was given to EMLL in 1958, and has remained mostly in Mexico for it's lifespan. The NWA name and the long existence of the belt give it a lot of credibility in Mexico, but it's no different from other modern championships in it's many breaks between defenses.
