The match will take place in a promotion named Adrenaline Wrestling. Ellsworth posted the match graphic on his official Instagram account, and revealed that Gillberg picked him to wrestle in his very last match.

Gillberg made several appearances in WWE during the Attitude Era, and was featured as a parody of one of the biggest Superstars in pro-wrestling at the time, Goldberg. Gillberg won the WWE Light Heavyweight Championship on one occasion during his WWE stint, after defeating Christian. He held the belt for 15 months, and thus became the longest-reigning Light Heavyweight Champion in WWE history.

The original booking plans for Gillberg were to have him lose 173 consecutive bouts, as a shot at Goldberg's record 173 straight victories in WCW. Gillberg's gimmick parodied several aspects of Goldberg's character, including his entrance, mannerisms, and a catchphrase stating "Who's first?".
