Franco Colombo was listed in the final despite not being in the tournament at any point previously. There was a Occidente Middleweight Tournament taking place simultaneously where Colombo advanced to the semifinal. Leopardo moved from the semifinal of this tournament to the final tournament. It's unclear why this switch happened or if it was just a typo. Box Y Lucha 1406 lists Franco Colombo as the winner.
