Leyenda de Azul is an annual CMLL tournament to honor the original Blue Demon, similar to the Leyenda de Plata tournament. The Azul tournament is considered a slightly lesser tournament. In recent years, they've try to differentiate the two by having the Azul tournament feature bigger stars, while Plata features better workers. Still, CMLL has been inconsistent about promoting the tournament, seemingly only bringing it back when El Hijo del Santo was unavailable for the Plata tournament, and changing the format in 2005 to accommodate allied promotion New Japan.

The winner of the tournament gets a special belt or plaque. The championship is not defended thru the year.

The tournament has always been held in Arena Mexico.
