Homenaje a Dos Leyendas (2006) (Spanish for "Homage to Two Legends") was a professional wrestling supercard show event, scripted and produced by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL; "World Wrestling Council"). The Dos Leyendas show took place on March 17, 2006 in CMLL's main venue, Arena México, Mexico City, Mexico. The event was to honor and remember CMLL founder Salvador Lutteroth, who died in March 1987. Starting in 1999 CMLL honored not just their founder, but also El Santo, the most famous Mexican professional wrestler ever.[2] This was the seventh March show held under the Homenaje a Dos Leyendas name, having previously been known as Homenaje a Salvador Lutteroth from 1996 to 1998.

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.
