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.

The event was main evented by R.E.D (BxB Hulk and KAI) defending the Open The Twin Gate Championship against Dragon Gate (Kzy and YAMATO). On November 15 at Kobe Pro-Wrestling Festival, Hulk and KAI defeated Kota Minoura and YAMATO to win the vacant Open The Twin Gate Championship. After the match, KAI and Hulk began attacking Minoura and YAMATO, until their Dragon Gate stablemate Kzy made the save.

Afterwards, SB KENTo began berating Yoshino's retirement, before entering in a heated confrontation with the rest of Yoshino's Toryumon stablemates, who felt disrespected by R.E.D.
