Production.
Background.
First held on October 5, 2017, MLW One Shot was the inaugural event of MLW's 2017 relaunch as a professional wrestling promotion. On May 2, 2023, a new partnership between MLW and FITE was announced, in-which the promotion would produce live events for FITE+ subscribers. MLW would subsequently announce four upcoming FITE+ specials on July 8, 2023, with One Shot announced to be taking place on December 7, at the Melrose Ballroom in Queens, New York.
Storylines.
The card will consist of matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches, with results predetermined by MLW's writers. Storylines are played out on MLW's television program, "Fusion", and the league's social media platforms.
As part of MLW's Open Door Policy, several free agents and freelancers would appear at the event. Announced names include the debut of Tokyo Joshi Pro-Wrestling (TJPW) Princess of Princess Champion Miyu Yamashita and the return of former MLW World Heavyweight Champion Satoshi Kojima
After Alex Kane defended the MLW World Heavyweight Championship at Slaughterhouse, he was confronted by Matt Cardona and his promoter Mister Saint Laurent of the World Titan Federation. Cardona claimed that as the show was being held in the 2300 Arena (the home venue of Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) for years), and that he was the "Deathmatch King", he should be world champion. On the October 26 episode of "Fusion", executive producer for the night Salina de la Renta granted MSL the duty of producing One Shot, with the bonus that one of his WTF clients will have a world title match with Kane at the event. On November 2, MLW announced on social media that Cardona would challenge Kane for the title at the event.
