Production edit
Background edit
Starting in 1997 the Mexican professional wrestling, company AAA has held a major wrestling show late in the year, either November or December, called Guerra de Titanes ("War of the Titans"). The show often features championship matches or Lucha de Apuestas or bet matches where the competitors risked their wrestling mask or hair on the outcome of the match. In Lucha Libre, the Lucha de Apuetas match is considered more prestigious than a championship match and many major shows feature one or more Apuesta matches. The Guerra de Titanes show is hosted in a new location each year, emanating from cities such as Madero, Chihuahua City, Mexico City, Guadalajara, Jalisco and others.[2] In 2016, AAA moved the Guerra de Titanes show to January but in 2018[3] the show was held in December which continued with the 2019 event.
On September 26, 2023, it was announced that Guerra de Titanes would take place on November 19, 2023, at Gimnasio Municipal Josue Neri Santos in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua.[4]
Storylines edit
Guerra de Titanes will feature several professional wrestling matches, with different wrestlers involved in 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.[5][6]
