Antonio Peña Memorial Show (2008)

The 2008 Antonio Peña Memorial Show (Homenaje a Antonio Peña in Spanish) was the second show held in honor of the deceased Antonio Peña, owner and creator of the Mexican Lucha Libre, or professional wrestling, company AAA. The show was held near the second anniversary of Peña's death from a heart attack. The main focus of the show was the second annual Copa Antonio Peña which was won by El Mesias as he survived a 13-man Gauntlet match defeating Pirata Morgan, El Elegido, Psicosis II, Dark Escoria, Silver King, Crazy Boy and Dark Cuervo one by one to win the Copa. The main event of the show saw La Legión Extranjera (Electroshock, Konnan, Rellik and Kenzo Suzuki) defeat "Team AAA" (Latin Lover, Octagón, La Parka and Super Fly). As a result of the win Konnan became the storyline owner of AAA. In the third main event of the evening Cibernético successfully defended the AAA Mega Championship against Chessman and El Zorro. The event has since been retrospectively renamed Héroes Inmortales II ("Immortal Heroes II").
