El Castillo del Terror (2014) was a professional wrestling event, the tenth annual El Castillo del Terror event produced by the International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG). IWRG has held an Castillo del Terror branded show since 2005, usually late in the year, making this year's event the tenth overall event in the series. The event took place on November 2, 2014, at Arena Naucalpan in Naucalpan, State of Mexico. The main event was the eponymous Castillo del Terror (Spanish for "Castle of Terror") Steel cage match where the last person eliminated was forced to unmasked per the match stipulation. The event was IWRG's Dia de los Muertes ("Day of the Dead") and Halloween holiday celebration.

Background

The event featured five professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers involved in pre-existing scripted feuds or storylines. The Main Event was a 12-Man Steel Cage Match. The last two wrestlers who remained in the ring fought one on one in a Lucha de Apuestas Match ("Bet match"), wagering their mask on the outcome of the match. The event included wrestlers from International Wrestling Revolution Group (IWRG) as well as a number of Mexican freelance wrestlers.

Event

In the second match of the night the group known as Los Comandos Elite added two new members as Comando Rayan and Comando Spartan teamed up with two new masked characters Comando Liderk and Comando Spector. Since both were masked it is possible that IWRG chose to give the ring characters to wrestlers who had worked for IWRG in the past under other names. In their debut Los Comandos Elite faced off against Los Tortugas Ninja (Leo, Mike, Rafy and Teelo) four wrestlers in gear resembling the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, including their masks. Los Tortugas defeated Los Comandos Elite, but the fighting continued after the match, indicating that the end of the match was not necessarily the end of the conflict between the two factions.[1][2] Demon Clown was originally scheduled to team up with El Hijo de Máscara Año 2000 and X-Fly in the third match of the show, but on the day he was replaced by Eterno instead with no explanation given by IWRG. The trio of rudos lost to the team of Grond XXX, Negro Navarro and Toscano in a best two-out-of-three falls six-man Lucha Libre rules match.[1][2]

The fourth match of the night was for the IWRG Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship, IWRG's top ranked singles championship, as champion El Hijo de Dos Caras faced off against Cien Caras, Jr. The challenger was accompanied by Máscara Año 2000, Jr. for the match. Before the match Cien Caras, Jr. promised that the match would be 100% technical and clean, only to start cheating moments into the match, including having Máscara Año 2000, Jr. interfere on his behalf. The match came down to the third and deciding fall, which Cien Caras, Jr. won, pinning Hijo de Dos Caras after Máscara Año 2000, Jr. fouled him behind the referee's back. Cien Caras, Jr.'s victory celebration was cut short when a representative from the Mexico City wrestling commission informed the referee that he had overturned the decision, disqualifying Cien Caras, Jr. With the disqualification El Hijo de Dos Caras was given the championship back.[1][2]

The main event, Castillo del Terror match started with all 10 wrestlers fighting inside the steel cage for 10 minutes before they were even allowed to attempt to escape the cage. Moments after the 10 minute mark Violencia, Jr. escaped the ring, making him the first man to successfully defend his mask. After seven other wrestlers climbed up the side of the cage and over the top the match came down to Golden Magic and relative newcomer Kenshi Kabuki. In the end Golden Magic escaped the cage, winning the mask of his opponent for the third time in Castillo del Terror history. Kenshi Kabuki was to force unmask as a result of the loss as per Lucha Libre traditions. The supposed Japanese wrestler spoke perfect Spanish as he unmasked, revealing that he was indeed Mexican and that his real name was Diego Lopez Reyes, who had previously worked in IWRG under the ring name Chicano, a name he would resume as a result of losing the Kenshi Kabuki mask.[1][2]
