Torneo Cibernetico
A ''torneo cibernetico'' is a multi-man professional wrestling elimination match that was created and primarily used in Mexican ''lucha libre'' professional wrestling promotions, especially in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). The match format sees two teams of varying sizes face off against each other. It uses standard ''lucha libre'' tag team rules with elimination occurring with a pinfall, submission, disqualification and count out and allows a wrestler to enter the match when their tag team partner exits the ring as well as when they tag out. A special 'batting' order system is used in which the wrestlers are given a specific order and may only tag in and out in this order. If two or more men from the same team remain, they must face each other to determine one individual winner. History in the United States Chikara The ''lucha libre''-inspired, Pennsylvania-based Chikara promotion holds an annual show with a ''torneo cibernetico'' as their main event. The Chikara ''Torne ...

Just about any singles or melee match type can be adapted to tag teams; for example, hardcore tag team matches are commonplace.

The following are match variations that are specific to tag team wrestling. Multiple wrestlers teamed matches Tag team matches can range from two teams of two fighting, to multiple person teams challenging each other.
