Triplemanía II-C was a major lucha libre, or professional wrestling event Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) that took place at the El Toreo bullfighting arena in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico on May 27, 1994. The show was the final of three Triplemanía II shows held in 1994, preceded by Triplemanía II-A in April and Triplemanía II-B held 12 days prior. 1994 was the first year AAA held multiple Triplemanía shows in a year, a tradition they would continue through 1997, after which Triplemanía became a single annual event. The annual Triplemanía show(s) are AAA's biggest show of the year, serving as the culmination of major storylines and feature wrestlers from all over the world competing in what has been described as AAA's version of WrestleMania or their Super Bowl event. The May 27th show was the fourth overall show produced under the Triplemanía banner.

The main event match was the culmination of a storyline that AAA had been building for a year, starting at the previous year's Triplemanía I show. Portraying the archetypes of "good" and "evil' AAA had created a storyine where the "hero" Konnan sought revenge against the "villain" Jake "The Snake" Roberts. The two faced off in a Lucha de Apuestas, or bet match, which is considered the ultimate "feud settler" in Lucha Libre. For the match both competitors bet their hair on the outcome of the match, with the loser being subjected to the humiliation of being shaved bald in the center of the ring. The show also featured a steel cage match between Los Hermanos Dinamita (Spanish for "The Dynamite Brothers"; Cien Caras, Máscara Año 2000 and Universo 2000) fighting Los Payasos ("The Clowns"; Coco Rojo, Coco Verde and Coco Amarillo) in a rematch from Triplemanía II-A where Los Payasos won the Mexican National Trios Championship from Los Hermanos Dinamita. The show was also supposed to feature a match for the Mexican National Middleweight Championship but the reigning champion Octagón was not medically cleared to wrestle.
