List of CMLL singles wrestling tournaments

On March 20, 1998 CMLL held a one night, single elimination tournament on their annual Homenaje a Salvador Lutteroth show in honor of Salvador Lutteroth, the founder of CMLL.[1] The tournament gathered eight of the top competitors in the promotion at the time including the then reigning CMLL World Heavyweight Champion Universo 2000. The tournament saw Mr. Niebla defeat Universo 2000, Atlantis and Black Warrior to win the tournament.[2] The victory was quickly overshadowed by the actions that took place after the match was over. Universo 2000 ran to the ring and attacked both Mr. Niebla as well as Rayo de Jalisco, Sr. who was in the ring to present the trophy to Mr. Niebla. Moments later Rayo de Jalisco, Jr. came to the ring to help his father, but was attacked by Steel, making a surprise appearance, who attacked Rayo, Jr. pulled Rayo, Jr.'s mask off and then proceeded to light it on fire after he hung it on the ringpost.
