Homenaje a Dos Leyendas 2008 (Spanish for "Homage to Two Legends") was a professional wrestling major show event produced by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), which took place on March 21, 2008 in Arena Mexico, Mexico City, Mexico. The two legends honored at that year's event was CMLL founder Salvador Lutteroth, who is always honored at Dos Leyendas and Black Shadow. The main event was a singles match between Perro Aguayo Jr. and Héctor Garza under Lucha de Apuestas rules, with both men putting their hair on the line. The card featured five further matches, all Six-man "Lucha Libre rules" tag team match, one being an all-female match and one featuring CMLL's Mini-Estrella division.

Since 1996 the Mexican wrestling company Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (Spanish for "World Wrestling Council"; CMLL) has held a show in March each year to commemorate the passing of CMLL founder Salvador Lutteroth who died in March 1987. For the first three years the show paid homage to Lutteroth himself, from 1999 through 2004 the show paid homage to Lutteroth and El Santo, Mexico's most famous wrestler ever and from 2005 forward the show has paid homage to Lutteroth and a different leyenda ("Legend") each year, celebrating the career and accomplishments of past CMLL stars. Originally billed as Homenaje a Salvador Lutteroth, it has been held under the Homenaje a Dos Leyendas ("Homage to two legends") since 1999 and is the only show outside of CMLL's Anniversary shows that CMLL has presented every year since its inception. All Homenaje a Dos Leyendas shows have been held in Arena México in Mexico City, Mexico which is CMLL's main venue, its "home". Traditionally CMLL holds their major events on Friday Nights, which means the Homenaje a Dos Leyendas shows replace their regularly scheduled Super Viernes show. The 2008 show was the 13th overall Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show.
