The 1997 Verano de Escándalo (Spanish for "Summer of Scandal") was the first ever Verano de Escándalo professional wrestling show promoted by Asistencia Asesoría y Administración (AAA). The show took place on September 14, 1997 in Tonalá, Jalisco, Mexico. The Main event featured a Steel Cage Elimination Match, Luchas de Apuestas which meant that the last man left in the cage would have his hair shaved off. The two teams in the cage match were Perro Aguayo, Perro Aguayo, Jr. and Heavy Metal facing Sangre Chicana, El Picudo and El Cobarde.

Background

The event featured five professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers involved in pre-existing scripted feuds or storylines. Wrestlers portray either villains (referred to as Rudos in Mexico) or fan favorites (Técnicos in Mexico) as they compete in wrestling matches with pre-determined outcomes.
