Verano de Escándalo (2005) (Spanish for "Summer of Scandal") was the ninth annual Verano de Escándalo professional wrestling show promoted by AAA. The show took place on September 18, 2005, in Naucalpan. The main event featured an "electrified" steel cage match Lucha de Apuestas where the last man in the cage would have to remove his mask or have his hair shaved off. The participants were Cibernético, Chessman, Shocker, and Latin Lover.

First held during the summer of 1997 the Mexican professional wrestling, company AAA began holding a major wrestling show during the summer, most often in September, called Verano de Escándalo ("Summer of Scandal"). The Verano de Escándalo show was an annual event from 1997 until 2011, then AAA did not hold a show in 2012 and 2013 before bringing the show back in 2014, but this time in June, putting it at the time AAA previously held their Triplemanía show. In 2012 and 2013 Triplemanía XX and Triplemanía XXI was held in August instead of the early summer. The show often features championship matches or Lucha de Apuestas or bet matches where the competitors risked their wrestling mask or hair on the outcome of the match. In Lucha Libre the Lucha de Apuetas match is considered more prestigious than a championship match and a lot of the major shows feature one or more Apuesta matches. The 2005 Verano de Escándalo show was the ninth show in the series.
