While the two previous Peña memorial shows were labeled with the Roman numerals III and IV, the 2011 event was simply known as Héroes Inmortales.
[3] The main attraction of the event was the Mexican debut of Sting, who took part in the ongoing storyline invasion of wrestlers from American promotion Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).
[8] Other matches taking place at the event included the fifth annual Copa Antonio Peña, Dr. Wagner Jr. defending the AAA Latin American Championship against El Hijo del Perro Aguayo and the culmination of the yearlong rivalry between Los Perros del Mal and Los Psycho Circus in a Lucha de Apuestas Masks vs.
The Héroes Inmortales show featured seven professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers involved in pre-existing, scripted feuds, plots, and storylines.
[14] On the September 10 edition of AAA's Sin Límite television program La Sociedad leader Konnan informed Jarrett that Wagner Jr. and Park were no longer going to be a problem for him, but that El Mesías, who had a history with TNA, having worked for the promotion from 2007 to 2008, was after his title.
[15][16] In the buildup to the match, AAA noted Sting's and El Mesías' history against each other back from 2007, when the latter worked for TNA under the ring name Judas Mesias.
[18][19][20] Sting appeared on the September 23 edition of Sin Límite, talking about his upcoming match and praising both his opponent and the country of Mexico, making a clear distinction between himself and La Sociedad.
[25] However, a month later, just days prior to Triplemanía XIX, Aguayo was forced to pull out of the event due to his body's adverse reaction to the medication given to him as part of his tumor treatment.
[28] On September 11, Wagner Jr., El Mesías and Extreme Tiger defeated Aguayo, Damián 666 and Halloween in a six man tag team match.
After the match, La Sociedad overpowered their opponents, giving Aguayo the opportunity to reveal that at Héroes Inmortales he would be challenging Wagner Jr. for the AAA Latin American Championship with Monterrey-based independent professional wrestler, television host and rapper Konan Big in his corner.
[31] This marked the fifth major AAA event in a row, where the two groups battle each other and continued the storyline from Verano de Escándalo, where Los Perros del Mal member X-Fly lost his hair in a similar match contested inside a steel cage.
[32][33] At the final television tapings, taking place six days prior to the pay-per-view, Damián 666, Halloween and X-Fly successfully defended the AAA World Trios Championship against Los Psycho Circus, while Aguayo pinned Wagner Jr. in a six-man tag team match.
[14] On the September 10 edition of Sin Límite, it was revealed in a secret conversation between Jarrett and Konnan, that the person who had interfered in the match was in fact La Sociedad member Chessman, not El Zorro.
[16] Chessman was rewarded for his deed on September 16, when Konnan named him La Legión Extranjera's new general, taking over the spot previously held by El Zorro.
The four attacked Escarlata at the August 19 tapings, leading to the match at Héroes Inmortales, where the new group would be represented by Polvo de Estrellas.
The match ended with Sexy pinning Mari for the win, after hitting her with a steel chair and La Sociedad referee Hijo del Tirantes performing a fast count.
After Escarlata submitted Stone with a modified figure-four leglock for the win, he was once again attacked by Nygma, Pasión Cristal and Polvo de Estrellas.
This led to exotico Cassandro making a surprise return to AAA, after over a three-year absence, to chase the rudos away and save his former partner.
After Tiger had jumped off a ladder with a diving guillotine leg drop onto Chessman who was lying on the guardrail, the Tag Team Champions set up two tables in the ring, only to be taken out by Abyss, before they could use them.
As Park celebrated the elimination by dancing and making fun of the Jarretts, all the while dominating Electroshock, hitting him with a double knee backbreaker, Karen grabbed his leg from outside the ring.
El Mesías used to distraction to hit a spear on Sting, but Abyss broke up the following pinfall by pulling the Puerto Rican out of the ring.
Eventually the competitors, both bleeding from their foreheads, entered the ring, where Wagner Jr. took control of the match by beating Aguayo with a steel chair and hitting both Konan Big and Silver King with the chain.
As Wagner Jr. celebrated his victory, Octagón entered the ring, hit him over the head with a steel chair and then started stomping him along with Aguayo, Konan Big and Silver King, turning rudo for the first time in his career.
Octagón and La Parka, arguably two of AAA's top técnicos prior to the event, were met with a chorus of boos as Aguayo celebrated holding his rival's mask.
The match started with Los Psycho Circus' midget companion, Mini Clown, entering the ring and taking a Martinete from Halloween.
[63] Following the event, El Brazo introduced his exótico persona named "La Braza" and sided with Cassandro and Pimpinela Escarlata in their rivalry against Nygma, Pasión Crystal, Polvo de Estrellas and Yuriko.
Following the event, sports website MedioTiempo's number one story was the double turn of Octagón and La Parka, which the site referred to as one of the most shocking moments in the history of AAA.
[54][59] Mexico's number one professional wrestling publication, Súper Luchas, offered praise to the Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match, calling it "excellent".
