The participants in the finals were a mixture of AAA mainstays (La Parka (the AAA version), Octagón, Abismo Negro), a Total Nonstop Action Wrestling representative (Rhino) and two wrestlers making special appearances (Fuerza Guerrera and Latin Lover).

Included in the show was the finals of a tournament to crown the first AAA World Tag Team Champions.

The undercard included a storyline between Billy Boy and his real life father-in-law Gran Apache, which culminated in a Lucha de Apuestas match where both wrestlers put their hair on the line.

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.

During the event Antonio Peña and Rey Mysterio, Jr. were announced as the first inductees into the AAA Hall of Fame.
