From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Crash Lucha Libre, also referred to as simply The Crash, is a Mexican professional wrestling promotion based in Tijuana, Baja California. The promotion largely runs its events in Tijuana, Mexico City, and Monterrey. The promotion currently has working relationships with American promotions DEFY Wrestling,[2] Mexico's International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) and Promociones MDA. The Crash previously had a working relationship with United States's Impact Wrestling, Mexico's Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA), Japan's Pro Wrestling Noah between 2016-2018, China's Oriental Wrestling Entertainment between 2017-2019 and PCW Ultra, also completely between 2016-2024.[3][4] until Konnan, the intermediary between the promotions, left The Crash.[5][6][7][8][9] On February 21, 2019 The Crash announced a partnership with Mexico's Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), United States's All Elite Wrestling (AEW), sister's promotion Ring of Honor and Japan's New Japan Pro-Wrestling, although that which would come to an end the following September.[10] On August 12, 2019, Major League Wrestling and The Crash Lucha Libre announced a working relationship which ended in November of that year when Major League Wrestling would work full time with AAA.[11]

The Crash is considered the fourth largest professional wrestling promotion in Mexico after the much older CMLL, AAA and IWRG promotions[12] and has been touted as the fastest growing company in the world.[2] The promotion uses wrestlers from the Mexican and American independent circuit, notably wrestlers from Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. On April 6, 2018, The Crash held its first independently promoted show in the United States at The Sugar Mill in New Orleans, Louisiana.[13] The Crash has historically served to create new Mexican talents to later export them to the aforementioned three companies or large companies abroad such as WWE and NJPW.
