The 2018 Guerra del Golfo (Spanish for "Gulf War") was a major lucha libre event produced and scripted by the Mexican professional wrestling promotion International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) that took place on April 15, 2018. The show was the 11th year in a row that IWRG has held a Guerra del Golfo show, which usually takes place around March or April.
The eponymous Guerra del Golfo tournament consists of three matches in total, with two "qualifying matches", multi-man steel cage matches where the last person left in the cage is "punished" by advancing to the main event of the night. The two losers were then forced to wrestle inside the steel cage under Lucha de Apuestas, or "bet match", rules. For the 2018 Guerra del Golfo, Teelo and Mike, both representing the group Los Tortugas Ninjas ("The Ninja Turtles"), lost their respective cage matches and were forced to fight each other. In the end, Teelo lost and was forced to unmask and reveal his given name, Mario Rodolfo Martinez Sanchez, to the audience. The show featured three additional matches
