EMLL (FRI) 12/13/1968 Arena México [Box y Lucha 980, DJ Spectro, SL NEW 17]
1) Espectro DRAW Sergio Borrayo
2) Renato Torres b Rafael Valenzuela
3) El Enfermero b Raúl Torres
4) Alfonso Dantes b Raúl Reyes
5) Huracán Ramírez & Mil Máscaras b Dr. Wagner & Gran Markus
6) El Solitario b Ray Mendoza [hair]
Solitario had his mask on the line. Mendoza was hurt early in the first fall, submitted, and ruled unable to continue. Fans were fine with Mendoza not getting shaved (because he was hurt and he was the tecnicos) but he shaved himself out of respect on the Tuesday. Seen as a big upset and a career defining win for Solitario.
7) El Santo DQ Rene Guajardo [NWA MIDDLE]
Missing from title histories, but appears to be correct. Rene loses the title by DQ for illegal punches (and disappears from EMLL for a while.)
