The IWRG 10th Anniversary Show was a major lucha libre event produced and scripted by the Mexican International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) professional wrestling promotion on January 3, 2006. The show was held in Arena Naucalpan, Naucalpan, State of Mexico, which is IWRG's primary venue. As the name indicates the event commemorates the anniversary of IWRG, which was founded on January 1, 1996.
The main event was a special six-way match contested under Lucha de Apuestas, or "bet match", rules. For this particular match one of the competitors, Cerebro Negro, Cyborg, El Enterrador 2000, Scorpio Jr., Veneno and Xibalba, would be forced to have all his hair shaved off after losing the match per Lucha de Apuestas traditions. In the end Cyborg lost and left the arena without any hair. Sources were not clear on which of the other five wrestlers were credited with the win. The show include four additional matches, a best two-out-of-three-falls singles match, tag team match and two six-man tag team matches.
Wrestler-turned-promoter Adolfo "Pirata" Moreno began promoting wrestling shows in his native Naucalpan de Juárez, Mexico, bringing in wrestlers from Empresa Mexicana de Lucha Libre (EMLL) to Naucalpan as well as featuring wrestlers from the Mexican independent circuit. Later he would promote shows mainly in "Arena KO Al Gusto" and served as the Universal Wrestling Association (UWA) partner, using the name Promociones Moreno as the business name for his promotional efforts. In 1977 Moreno bought the run down Arena KO Al Gusto and had Arena Naucalpan built in its place, an arena designed specifically for wrestling shows, with a maximum capacity of 2,400 spectators for the shows. Arena Naucalpan became the permanent home for Promociones Moreno, with very few shows held elsewhere.
