Storylines
editThe Ryōgoku Peter Pan 2013 event featured ten professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[3]
By winning the King of DDT tournament on July 7, Harashima earned a title match in the main event against KO-D Openweight Champion Shigehiro Irie.

Similarly, the first match of the main card was a four-way tag team match to determine the next challengers to the KO-D Tag Team title who would go on to face the champions at the Who's Gonna Top? 2013 event on September 29.
