Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre

Mexican professional wrestling promotion

Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL; "World Wrestling Council") is a Mexican professional wrestling promotion based in Mexico City. Founded in 1933 as Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL; "Mexican Wrestling Enterprise") by Salvador Lutteroth, it is the oldest professional wrestling promotion still in existence. Prior to 1933, professional wrestling shows in Mexico were primarily promoted by foreign promoters, who typically brought in European or American professional wrestlers as their main attractions.
