The CMLL World Women's Championship (Campeonato Mundial Femenil de CMLL in Spanish) is the championship in women's professional wrestling that is most highly promoted by the Mexican lucha libre promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). The championship has existed since 1992 and is one of two women's championships currently promoted by CMLL; the other is the Mexican National Women's Championship. As it is a professional wrestling championship, it is not won legitimately; it is instead won via a scripted ending to a match or awarded to a wrestler because of a storyline. All title matches take place under two out of three falls rules.

Bull Nakano became the first CMLL World Women's Champion after winning a 12-woman battle royal to receive the title on June 12, 1992. Princesa Sugehit is the current CMLL World Women's Champion, having defeated Marcela on October 23, 2020. This is Sugehit first reign with the title; she is the 20th overall champion.[2] La Amapola holds the record for the longest reign with 1,442 days. Marcela has had the most reigns, with five. Marcela has had the shortest title reign, at 29 days. The CMLL World Women's Championship is the only Women's Championship and one of the only of two championships, the other being the IWGP Heavyweight Championship to be defended in the country of North Korea at the event Collision in Korea in a match between at the time CMLL World Women's Champion Akira Hokuto successfully defeated against Bull Nakano.[3]
