===Background===
The Crockett Cup, held in honour of Jim Crockett Promotions (JCP) founder Jim Crockett, Sr., first took place in 1986. The concept was a single elimination tag team tournament, with the winners earning a prize of $1 million. The event would take place again in 1987 and 1988. The National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) would go on to revive the event in 2019, before holding the tournament again in 2022. On April 7, 2023, the NWA announced that the sixth Crockett Cup would take place on June 3 and 4 at the the Winston-Salem Fairgrounds Annex in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
===Storylines===
The Crockett Cup tournament took place over the two night event, with the winning team earning a match for the NWA World Tag Team Championship.
At NWA 312 on April 7, Silas Mason won the Bub Luce Memorial Battle Royal, earning a match against NWA National Heavyweight Champion EC3 at the Crockett Cup.
On May 15, during an episode of the "This is the NWA" YouTube show, it was announced that Pretty Empowered (Ella Envy, Kenzie Paige, Kylie Paige, and Roxy) would face La Rosa Negra, Madi, Missa Kate, and Samantha Starr in a Hardcore Team War Match on Night 1 of the Crockett Cup.
