Triplemanía XXI was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) produced by the Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA) promotion, which took place on June 16, 2013, at Arena Ciudad de México in Mexico City, Mexico. The event was the twentyfirst annual Triplemanía, which is AAA's biggest show of the year, and featured eight matches, including a Lucha de Apuestas, or "Bet match" between Cibernético and El Hijo del Perro Aguayo where both men will wager their hair on the outcome of the match, a five-way match for the vacant AAA World Tag Team Championship, a match between Blue Demon, Jr. and El Mesías for the vacant AAA Latin American Championship, and a singles match between Chessman and Heavy Metal, with the winner earning a shot at El Texano, Jr.'s AAA World Heavyweight Championship later in the event. In addition to airing on regular pay-per-view, the event was also scheduled to become AAA's first ever internet pay-per-view (iPPV). However, due to technical difficulties Ustream was unable to air the event, leading to the company offering refunds to all those who had purchased it through its site. On June 18, 2013, AAA posted the entire event for free on YouTube.
Background[]
The event featured eight professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers involved in pre-existing scripted feuds, plots and storylines. Wrestlers portray either villains (referred to as "rudos" in Mexico) or fan favorites ("technicos" in Mexico) as they follow a series of tension-building events, which culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.
