Production

Background

In June 2018, it was officially announced that Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro-Wrestling would be running a show at Madison Square Garden.[1] One month later, it was reported that the event would have been canceled due to interference by WWE.[2] The issues were eventually resolved and tickets went on sale for the event in August. During the pre-sale, 60% of tickets were sold,[3] with the remaining of the 15,000 tickets selling within 16 minutes of going on sale.[4] The G1 Supercard was the first professional wrestling event at Madison Square Garden by a promotion not owned by the McMahon family since November 14, 1960.[5]

On March 26, 2019, Ring of Honor announced that Flip Gordon would not be competing on the March 31, 2019 show in Baltimore due to a knee injury.[6]

Storylines

Road to G1 Supercard featured multiple professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Storylines were produced on ROH's weekly television Ring of Honor Wrestling and various ROH pay-per-view and livestreaming events.[7]
