The Arena Mexico 57th Anniversary Show was a major professional wrestling event produced by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) that took place on April 26, 2013, in CMLL's home arena Arena México in Mexico City, Mexico. The event commemorated the 57th anniversary of the completion of Arena México in 1958. Upon its completion Arena Mexico became CMLL's main venue and has served as the host of almost all major shows since then.

The event featured six professional wrestling matches, in which some wrestlers are involved in pre-existing scripted feuds or storylines and others are teamed up with no backstory. Wrestlers themselves portray either villains (referred to as "Rudos" in Mexico) or fan favorites ("Technicos" in Mexico) as they compete in matches with pre-determined outcomes.

The main event of the six-match show was for the vacant Mexican National Welterweight Championship between tecnico Místico La Nueva Era and the rudo Averno. The Mexican National Welterweight Championship was vacated on March 20, 2013, when the then-Champion Titán had to relinquish the title due to an injury. CMLL held a 10-man Torneo cibernetico, elimination match on the April 19, 2013, Super Viernes where the last two wrestlers in the match would face off on the Arena Mexico 57th Anniversary Show to determine the new champion. The elimination match included Averno, Fuego, Guerrero Maya, Jr., Místico La Nueva Era, Namajague, Rey Cometa, Tiger, Valiente, Volador, Jr. and Sangre Azteca. Of the group Valiente and Sagre Azteca have held the Welterweight championship before. Of the ten competitors Sange Azteca and Valiente had both held the Mexican National Welterweight Championship. The Torneo Cibernetico saw Sangre Azteca eliminated as the first man by Fuego, followed by Guerrero Maya, Jr. (by Volador, Jr.), Fuego (Tiger), Namajague (Disqualified for a low blow against Rey Cometa), Rey Cometa (by Averno), Tiger (by Valiente), Valiente (by Volador, Jr.) and finally Volador, Jr. was pinned by Místico, leaving Místico and Averno as the last two competitors. Averno had a long history with the character Místico, that had left CMLL in 2011 and Místico La Nueva Era was created to follow in his footsteps.
