Rey de Parejas
The Rey de Parejas (Spanish for "King of Tag Teams") is a professional wrestling round-robin tag team tournament held by Dragongate. It was created in 2003 by Toryumon Japan to determine the strongest tag team of the promotion. In 2004, after Último Dragón left Toryumon with the name and trademarks associated, the Toryumon Japan roster and staff formed Dragon Gate and a second Rey de Parejas tournament was held to establish the inaugural Open the Triangle Gate Championship as a spiritual successor to the UWA World Trios Championship.
From 2007 to 2016, the tournament was held as the Summer Adventure Tag League. In 2011, it was held as a single-elimination tournament under the name of Summer Adventure Tag Tournament. In 2012, the tournament featured trios instead of tag teams. In 2023, the tournament was revived as the Rey de Parejas once again.
The tournament is held under a points system, with 2 points for a win, 1 for a time limit draw, and 0 for a loss, no contest or double decision. The two top-scoring teams in each block advance to a single-elimination playoff to determine the winners of the Rey de Parejas.
The first Rey de Parejas featured eight teams in a single block and was held from October 5 to October 26, 2003.
The 2004 edition of the Rey de Parejas took place from October 3 to November 7. The tournament featured seven trios competing in a single block to win the newly created Open the Triangle Gate Championship. From October 28 onward, Ryo Saito replaced Magnum Tokyo who suffered an injury.
Do Fixer (Magnum Tokyo/Ryo Saito, Dragon Kid and Genki Horiguchi), Final M2K (Masaaki Mochizuki, Susumu Yokosuka and K-ness.) and Italian Connection (Milano Collection A. T., Yossino and Anthony W. Mori) finished tied in second place with 6 points each and equal head-to-head results. An elimination three-way match was held on November 6 to break the tie, which was won by Italian Connection. The next day, they won the final against Aagan Iisou (Shuji Kondo, "brother" Yasshi and Takuya Sugawara) and became the first Open the Triangle Gate Champions.
The first Summer Adventure Tag League was held from August 5 to August 26, 2007. The tournament featured ten teams in a single block, with the top-four scoring teams advancing to a single-elimination bracket. Block matches were fought with a 20-minute time limit; semi-finals with a 30-minute time limit. B×B Hulk and Yamato were originally scheduled to participate in the league, but both men got injured and had to withdraw. They were replaced by Lupin Matsutani and m.c.KZ.
The second edition of the Summer Adventure Tag League was held from August 9 to August 28, 2008. The tournament featured the same format as the previous year, with one fewer team. On the opening day, held at Korakuen Hall, the steel structure of the ring broke during the first match. The ring was dismantled and a wrestling mat taped to the floor without ropes was used for the remainder of the event, as the ring crew was unable to repair it on site and it was deemed too dangerous.
