The two March Juicio Final events were also promoted under the name Homenaje a Dos Leyendas ("Homage to two legends"). The exact number of matches is unclear as only three matches for the 1991 Juicio Final show were documented and confirmed, leading to at least 94 wrestlers who have wrestled in a total of at least matches 28 matches over the six shows, six female wrestlers, four Mini-Estrellas and 84 male wrestlers from the regular division.
