It was the fourth annual event under the "Wrestle Princess" branch, which is considered to be Tokyo Joshi Pro-Wrestling's yearly main pay-per-view.
The event featured ten professional wrestling matches that resulted from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches. [3]
The event started with two preshow matches broadcast live on TJPW's YouTube channel.
