## Production

### Background

Noche de Campeones is themed around championship matches, with all but one of the announced matches on the card being contested for a championship.

The event aired on pay-per-view via the FITE TV service.

### Storylines

Noche de Campeones featured seven professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed 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 wrestling matches.
