Will Ospreay is heavily featured in the marketing for the event, as it will be his first time wrestling in Mexico.

While speaking with Q101 for a new interview, Ospreay talked about the event and pitched two names that he'd like to possibly face at the event.

“Dorada might be a cool one, I think that would be good. Mistico is always great as well just because he’s an icon in Mexico, he’s like super super famous. I feel like I would love to experience that. I feel like there’s a small list of people Tokyo Dome, Wembley Stadium, Madison Square Garden, and Arena Mexico. There’s a small list of people and now I get to be one of those guys on that list, which is such an honor. I’m dead excited, it’s been a long time coming but the one thing I am going to ask is that I need someone of a high standard in CMLL to take me to go get some proper tacos. I am so flipping excited, I cannot tell you how much I’m excited for Mexican food. I love Mexican food so much and to actually get authentic tacos is going to be one of be one of the greatest things i'll ever do in my wrestling career.”
