Homenaje a Dos Leyendas 2006 (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 17, 2006 Arena México, Mexico City, Mexico. The event honored Lucha Libre Legends CMLL founder Salvador Lutteroth (who is always honored at the Dos Leyendas event). The main event was a Lucha de Apuestas, hair vs. hair match between Universo 2000 and Perro Aguayo Jr.. The background for this match went back beyond the previous year's Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show where Aguayo and his father Perro Aguayo defeated Universo 2000's brothers (Cien Caras and Máscara Año 2000) in an Apuesta match. For the match Aguayo, Sr. was in his son's corner while Cien Caras was Universo 2000's cornerman. Perro Aguayo Jr. won the match two falls to one, forcing Universo 2000 to be shaved completely bald after the match. The show featured five additional matches, all Six-man "Lucha Libre rules" tag team matches.
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.[2] 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[3] 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".[4] Traditionally CMLL holds their major events on Friday Nights, which means the Homenaje a Dos Leyendas shows replace their regularly scheduled Super Viernes show.[4] The 2006 show was the 11th overall Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show.

The event featured six professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers involved in pre-existing scripted feuds, plots and storylines. Wrestlers were portrayed as either heels (referred to as rudos in Mexico, those that portray the "bad guys") or faces (técnicos in Mexico, the "good guy" characters) as they followed a series of tension-building events, which culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.
