Homenaje a Dos Leyendas 2015 (Spanish for "Homage to Two Legends") was a major professional wrestling event produced by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) as part of their annual Homenaje a Dos Leyendas event series that started in 1996. The 2015 event was the 20th event in the series and took place on March 20, 2015 in Arena México, Mexico City, Mexico, making it the first major CMLL event of 2015. The event paid tribute to CMLL founder Salvador Lutteroth, who is always honored at Dos Leyendas, and will also pay tribute to luchador El Faraón. The main event was a tag team Lucha de Apuestas, or bet match, where each team bet their hair on the outcome of the match as the team of Máximo and Volador Jr. faced the team of El Terrible and Rey Bucanero, where the losing team would be shaved bald after the match. The show featured an additional Luchas de Apuestas match where both competitors wagered their masks on the outcome of the match. Mexican wrestler Dragon Lee faced Japanese wrestler Kamaitachi. The 2015 Dos Leyendas show was broadcast live in 60 Cinépolis theaters in Mexico, which was the first time this format was offered in Mexico.

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 2015 show was the 20th overall Homenaje a Dos Leyendas show.
