Homenaje a Dos Leyendas 2005 (Spanish for "Homage to Two Legends") is an annual professional wrestling major event produced by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) that took place on March 18, 2005 Arena México, Mexico City, Mexico. The event honored Lucha Libre Legends CMLL founder Salvador Lutteroth (who is always honored at the Dos Leyendas event) and Perro Aguayo, who came out of retirement for the night to wrestle in the main event. The main event of the first ever Homnaje a Dos Leyendas event was a tag team match between the father son team of Perro Aguayo and Perro Aguayo Jr. and the brother team of Cien Caras and Máscara Año 2000 contested under Lucha de Apuestas, hair vs. hair rules. The storyline leading into the main event played off a long running feud between Aguayo and Caras/Máscara 2000 that began in the 1980s. Caras was given the credit for retiring Perro Aguayo some time previous and had targeted Aguayo's son. After a two on one attack Perro, Sr. came to the rescue of his son, challenging Cien Casa and Máscara Año 2000 for "one last mask". The Aguayos won the tag team match and forced Caras and Año 2000 to have their heads shaved bald after the match. The show featured four additional matches all Six-man "Lucha Libre rules" tag team matches. The event featured five professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers involved in pre-existing scripted feuds or storylines. Wrestlers portray either villains (referred to as Rudos in Mexico) or fan favorites (Técnicos in Mexico) as they compete in wrestling matches with pre-determined outcomes.

Production

Background

Since 1996 the Mexican wrestling company Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (Spanish for "World Wrestling Council"; CMLL) has held a show in March each year to commemorate the passing of CMLL founder Salvador Lutteroth who died in March 1987. For the first three years the show paid homage to Lutteroth himself, from 1999 through 2004 the show paid homage to Lutteroth and El Santo, Mexico's most famous wrestler ever and from 2005 forward the show has paid homage to Lutteroth and a different leyenda ("Legend") each year, celebrating the career and accomplishments of past CMLL stars. Originally billed as Homenaje a Salvador Lutteroth, it has been held under the Homenaje a Dos Leyendas ("Homage to two legends") since 1999 and is the only show outside of CMLL's Anniversary shows that CMLL has presented every year since its inception. All Homenaje a Dos Leyendas shows have been held in Arena México in Mexico City, Mexico which is CMLL's main venue, its "home". Traditionally CMLL holds their major events on Friday Nights, which means the Homenaje a Dos Leyendas shows replace their regularly scheduled Super Viernes show. The 2005 show was the tenth overall Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show.
