CMLL Super Viernes is professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre's (CMLL) Friday night wrestling show that takes place in Arena México every Friday night unless a Pay-Per-View or a major wrestling event is scheduled to take place on that night. CMLL began holding their weekly Friday night "Super Viernes" shows as far back as 1938, with 2012 being no exception. Some of the matches from Super Viernes are taped for CMLL's weekly shows that air in Mexico the week following the Super Viernes show. The Super Viernes show was replaced by four major CMLL events in 2010, Homenaje a Dos Leyendas, Infierno en el Ring, CMLL 77th Anniversary Show, Sin Piedad.
The CMLL World Heavyweight Championship (January 22), Mexican National Welterweight Championship (June 11), Mexican National Trios Championship (June 18), CMLL World Women's Championship (October 29) and the CMLL World Trios Championship (October 29) were successfully defended by the champions. Only one Lucha de Apuesta was held on a Super Viernes show in 2010, which featured Charly Manson defeating Negro Casas for the right to shave Warrior's hair off.
