Homenaje a Dos Leyendas 2009 (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 20, 2009 in Arena México, Mexico City, Mexico. The two legends honored this year was CMLL founder Salvador Lutteroth, who is always honored at Dos Leyendas and Cavernario Galindo. The two feature matches were two singles, two out of three falls, matches. The first feature match saw Negro Casas defeate Místico to win the CMLL World Welterweight Championship two falls to one. The second feature match and last match of the evening saw Último Guerrero defeat Villano V, two falls to one, in a match where the loser was forced to unmask. The event featured four additional Six-man tag team match, including a six-Mini-Estrellas match.
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 2009 show was the 14th overall Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show.
