The finals of the tournament to crown the first champions saw "Los Infernales" ("The Infernal Ones"; the team of MS-1, Pirata Morgan, and El Satánico) defeat "Los Brazos" ("The Arms"; El Brazo, Brazo de Oro, and Brazo de Plata) to become the first champions. "Los Brazos" would win the championship 9 months later but only hold them for a short while. In February 1986 "Los Brazos" became the first team to hold the title twice as they defeated Dos Caras, Villano III, and Villano IV for the championship. EMLL rebranded themselves "Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre" ("World Wrestling Council") in 1991 and created the CMLL World Trios Championship but also kept the rights to the Mexican National Trios Championship. In 1992 Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) was formed by a group of officials and wrestlers who broke away from CMLL. The then-reigning champions Cien Caras, Máscara Año 2000, and Universo 2000 left CMLL to join AAA and brought the Mexican National Trios Championship with them as it was not a CMLL owned title. The Commission granted AAAthe right to control the title from 1992 on, later on when AAA began working with Promotora Mexicana de Lucha Libre (PROMELL) both promotions were allowed used the Trios title by the commission. In 1996 AAA and PROMELL stopped working together and the title was vacated. PROMELL was granted the right to promote the title from that point on and held a tournament to crown new champions. Blue Panther, Fuerza Guerrera, and El Signo won the tournament and would go on to hold the titles for 1,728 days, although for the majority of the time the three did not team up and the Trios championship was inactive. In 2001 the trio worked a couple of matches for CMLL, just long enough for them to lose the championship to Mr. Niebla, Olímpico, and Safari, bringing the championship back under CMLL's control, where it has remained ever since.
