IWRG Legado Final


The Legado Final (Spanish for "Final Legacy") is a series of major wrestling shows produced and scripted by the Mexican lucha libre professional wrestling promotion International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG; sometimes referred to as Grupo Internacional Revolución in Mexico). The first Legado Final show was held on June 2, 2011 at IWRG's main venue Arena Naucalpan, with a second held in 2012 and a third show held in 2015. The event celebrates, or pays tribute to, the fact that lucha libre is a family tradition with a main event tournament where fathers and sons team up for a tag team elimination match.

Previous winners include El Brazo and El Hijo del Brazo in 2011, Pirata Morgan and El Hijo de Pirata Morgan in 2012 and finally El Hijo del Diablo and Dragón Celestial in 2015. After the 2015 match Dragón Celestial took the name "El Diablo Jr. I" and began teaming with his father on a regular basis.

professional wrestling has been a generational tradition in Lucha libre since its inception early in the 20th century, with a great deal of second or third generation wrestlers following in the footsteps of their fathers or mothers. Several lucha libre promotions honor those traditions, often with annual tournaments such as Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre's La Copa Junior. In addition to actual second or third generation wrestlers lucha libre also has a number of wrestlers who are presented as second or third generation wrestlers by the promoters without actually being a second or third generation wrestler. These are normally masked wrestlers promoted as "Juniors", on a few occasions billed as "El Hijo de" (Literally "The Son of") These wrestlers normally pay a royalty or fee for the use of the name, using the name of an established star to get attention from fans and promoters. Examples of such instances of fictional family relationships include Arturo Beristain, also known as El Hijo del Gladiador ("The Son of El Gladiador) who was not related to the original El Gladiador, or El Hijo de Cien Caras who paid Cien Caras for the rights to use the name.
