The '''Palacio de los Deportes Torneo De La Muerte, 1981''' was a [[Ruleta de la Muerte]] tournament held on [[July 12 | July 12th]], [[1981]], at [[Palacio de los Deportes]]. This was a loser's advance tournament with the final two teams being forced to compete in a double mask vs double mask match.

==Format==

The tournament was an unusual 12 team tournament. Due to the strange number of teams and due to there not being any buys, the first round contained six matches. The losers of the six matches advanced to the second round, which contained three matches. The losers of the three matches in the second round advanced to the three team final round. Due to the odd number of teams in the final round, the final was split into legs. It is unknown how it was decided, but the losers of Match 7 fought the losers of Match 8, with the losers advancing to the final match versus the losers of Match 9.
