AAA Americas Trios Championship

The AAA Americas Trios Championship was a six-man tag team title contested for in the Mexican lucha libre promotion AAA. The last recorded title defense for Los Villanos (Villano III, Villano IV and Villano V) was in 1997; no official announcement has been made but the title was quietly eliminated at some point after 1997 when Los Villanos stopped working for AAA. Being a professional wrestling championship, it was not won legitimately: it is instead won via a scripted ending to a match or awarded to a wrestler because of a storyline.
