Background
The Mexican
IWRG had originally announced that Silver King would be participating in the Rey del Ring match, but Silver King died from a heart attack on May 10, 2019 during a wrestling event.[6] After Emperador Azteca had won the Rey del Ring Championship the previous year, he defended the championship only once in the interceding year, successfully defending it against Imposible on a FILLM show in September before being forced to vacated it for the 2019 tournament.[7]
Storylines
The event featured four professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers involved in pre-existing scripted feuds, plots and storylines. Wrestlers were portrayed as either heels (referred to as rudos in Mexico, those that portray the "bad guys") or faces (técnicos in Mexico, the "good guy" characters) as they followed a series of tension-building events, which culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[8] IWRG promoted the show without announcing a single participant ahead of time.[9]
