Storylines

This professional wrestling event featured professional wrestling matches, which involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines that played out on ROH's television programs. Wrestlers portrayed villains or heroes as they followed a series of events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.

Through partnerships with New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) and Mexico's Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), wrestlers from those two promotions also appeared on the card. NJPW wrestlers Jushin Thunder Liger and Yoshi-Hashi were originally scheduled to take part in the event, but were forced to pull out due to visa issues. They were replaced by Guerrillas of Destiny (Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa). [4]
