Juicio Final (1988) (Spanish for "Final Judgement" 1988) was a professional wrestling supercard show, scripted and produced by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), which took place on December 9, 1988, in Arena México, Mexico City, Mexico. The show served as the year-end finale for CMLL before Arena México, CMLL's main venue, closed down for the winter for renovations and to host Circo Atayde . The shows replaced the regular Super Viernes ("Super Friday") shows held by CMLL since the mid-1930s.

The main event of the 1988 Juicio Final show featured Lizmark defeating Fabuloso Blondy to win the NWA World Light Heavyweight Championship, ending Fabuloso Blondy's reign at 168 days. The show was also billed as the farewell show for Ignacio Gómez Ruiz, known under the ring name "El Nazi" as he was retiring due to injuries. In the semi-main event Lola González defeated Pantera Sureña in a Lucha de Apuestas, hair vs. hair match, forcing Pantera to have her hair shaved off as a result. The show featured six additional matches.
