Juicio Final (1995) (Spanish for "Final Judgement" 1995) was the name used for two major professional wrestling shows, scripted and produced by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). The shows took place on December 1 and December 15, 1995 in Arena México, Mexico City, Mexico. The shows 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. This was the seventh year that CMLL used the name "Jucio Final" for their year-end show, a name they would use on a regular basis going forward, originally for their year even events but later on held at other points in the year.
The December 1 main event was originally scheduled to be a Luchas de Apuestas, or bet match, where both Shocker and Kahoz were supposed to put their mask on the line. Shocker came down with strep throat prior to the show and the scheduled match had to be replaced with a three way Lucha de Apuestas match between Bestia Salvaje, El Satánico and Héctor Garza. In the replacement main event Garza ended up defeating Bestia Salvaje, forcing Bestia Salvaje to have all his hair shaved off. The December 1 show included three additional matches, including Negro Casas defeating El Hijo del Santo to win the vacant NWA World Welterweight Championship.
The original mask vs. mask match ended up taking place on December 15 instead, with Shocker defeating Kahoz, forcing Kahoz to unmask and reveal his real name, Alberto Leonel Hernández López, as per lucha libre traditions. The main event of the December 15 show saw Héctor Garza defeat El Satánico forcing Satánico to have his hair shaved off. The show included a total of six matches, including Apolo Dantés successfully defending the CMLL World Heavyweight Championship against Vampiro.
