The Leyenda de Plata (2000) was professional wrestling tournament produced by the Mexican wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLLl; Spanish "World Wrestling Council") that ran from September 22, 2000, over the course of three of CMLL's Friday night shows in Arena México with the finals on October 6, 2000. The annual Leyenda de Plata tournament is held in honor of lucha libre legend El Santo and is one of CMLL's most important annual tournaments.

The third annual Leyenda de Plata started with a 16-man torneo cibernetico elimination match. Unlike in 1998 and 1999, CMLL added a semi-final match to the tournament as the last two wrestlers in the cibernetico would meet in a singles match the following week. The semi-finalists were Dr. Wagner Jr. and Negro Casas, outlasting Antifaz del Norte, Atlantis, Astro Rey Jr., Black Warrior, Blue Panther, El Felino, Fuerza Guerrera, Olímpico, Rey Bucanero, Safari, Satánico, Scorpio Jr., Tarzan Boy and Zumbido. The two survivors faced off in a singles match the following week, which Negro Casas won. On October 6, 2000, Negro Casas defeated El Hijo del Santo to win the 2000 Leyenda de Plata.
