Background

In 2017, Nauman Suleman opened first ever Pakistani professional wrestling academy in Karachi. Many wrestlers were selected. They started to have matches at the PWFP Complex.

Storylines

PWFP features professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Storylines are produced on PWFP Seasons episodes.

The primary feud was between Sammy Guevara and Raja Naveed for the PWFP Ultimate Championship. In March 2019, Sammy Guevara challenged Raja Naveed for the PWFP Ultimate Championship to which Raja Naveed responded and accepted the challenge.

Wrestlers absent from the event

The event was scheduled to have five international wrestlers which included Chris Masters, Carlito, Dmitri Alexandrov and referee Justin King. All of these superstars couldn't participate in the event due to visa issues.
