Rey de Reyes (2017)
- ... that at the 2017 Rey de Reyes professional wrestler Johnny Mundo became a triple champion, holding the AAA Mega, Cruiserweight and Latin American Championships?
Dark Angelita (March 20, 2017). "AAA: Resultados "Rey de Reyes 2017" – 19/03/2017 – Johnny Mundo triple monarca; Argenis gana la espada y Ayako Hamada es la nueva reina". Superluchas (in Spanish). Retrieved March 20, 2017.

- Comment: He is the first ever Triple Champion but the sources don't outright state. The articles for each championship prove it but no source state it as such, so I scaled the claim back. Source is in Spanish but has the "Triple Monarca" claim in the title (monarca is the term used for champion)

I have a couple of questions. Is the "Triple Champion" in AAA similar to the Triple Crown? In that article, it seems that the AAA isn't listed there, so it seems that this achievement is not recognized (yet?). Either way, Johnny Nitro was still named as having won "triple monarch" ("monarca" actually translates to "monarch" in Spanish), so it makes sense that the best translation for this achievement is the "Triple Crown". Also, it seems that this is a "champion vs. champion vs. champion" match, which I guess makes "triple champion" makes sense, as Seth Rollins was a "double champion" when he won both the U.S. and WWE titles in one night. I would like to see references though that the AAA Triple Crown exists/is recognized, or even subsequent broadcasts where the term "triple champion" has been used. If you can't find one, perhaps we can just say that he has won three titles in AAA without using terms such as "triple champion" or "triple crown".
"* Finally, a made a minor edit on the blurb. Length, referencing, newness are okay, and it seems that no policy was violated in this article. –HTD 19:31, 26 March 2017 (UTC)
