El Protector (2012) was the first annual El Protector professional wrestling event produced by the International Wrestling Revolution Group. It took place on January 12, 2012, at Arena Naucalpan in Naucalpan, State of Mexico. The 2012 El Protector was the first event produced under that name, but was a continuation of the Proyeccion a Nuevas Promesas ("Projecting a new promise") tournament of 2010 and 2011 . The focal point of the show was the El Protector tag team tournament where eight teams competed for the trophy.

The tournament is patterned on Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL)'s Torneo Gran Alternativa ("Great Alternative Tournament") where a young wrestler is teamed up with a veteran wrestler to help profile the young wrestlers.
