The EMLL 54th Anniversary Show (Spanish: 54. Aniversario de EMLL) was a professional wrestling major show event produced by Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL) that took place on September 18, 1987, in Arena México, Mexico City, Mexico. The event commemorated the 54th anniversary of CMLL, which would become the oldest professional wrestling promotion in the world. The Anniversary show is EMLL's biggest show of the year, their Super Bowl event. The EMLL Anniversary Show series is the longest-running annual professional wrestling show, starting in 1934.

The show was promoted as Gory Guerrero’s retirement show and featured all four of his sons (Chavo, Mando, and Hector and Eddy) wrestling on the show. The main event of the show was a Lucha de Apuestas ("Bet match) where both As Charro and Mogur wagered their masks on the outcome of the match, with the loser being forced to take off his mask at the end of the show. The show featured an additional Lucha de Apuestas match as Pirata Morgan and Tony Salazar wagered their hair (Both were already unmasked) on the outcome of their match, with the loser being shaved bald after the match was over).
