Road to Redemption will feature the professional wrestling matches that involved wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds or storylines that play out on EAW's primary brands, Showdown, Dynasty, and Voltage. Wrestlers will portray heroes or villains as they follow a series of events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. The main attraction of the event is the Elimination Chamber Match.

After Jacob Senn was crowned the new EAW World Heavyweight Champion at House of Glass, he would kick off the Dynasty right after with his own personal victory speech. However, it wouldn't last long as the man that assaulted him in The Heart Break Boy after his World Heavyweight Championship Match would interrupt him, stating that he returned for one reason: The EAW World Heavyweight Championship. After a few shared words between the two, Lucian Black (now going under the alias of Orion Vileheart) returned and stated that he was coming for Jacob Senn. After that, Sebastian Monroe would arrive before anything violent could happen. He would announce that he would hold a qualifying match each week for the chamber and the following week would host Orion Vileheart and The Mexican Samurai in the first match, while Monroe announced that The Heart Break Boy would have his match the following week with an opponent of his choosing. In the first qualifier match in a Buried Alive Match in celebration of Halloween, The Mexican Samurai defeated Orion Vileheart for the first spot in the chamber. On the following Dynasty, Jacob Senn would be confronted by The Mexican Samurai and it would lead to a match between the two to be made for the next week. In the main event, The Heart Break Boy would come out victorious against Hades, even with an interference from Jacob Senn unable to stop him to qualify for the match. In the match between The Mexican Samurai and Jacob Senn, The Heart Break Boy would be outside the ring. During a moment in the match when Jacob Senn attempted to get Mexican Samurai back into the ring, Jacob took a cheap shot elbow strike against The Heart Break Boy at the announce table before returning to the match. In an attempt to get retribution, The Heart Break Boy would cost The Mexican Samurai his match against Jacob Senn. Both men would argue about the result with Mexican Samurai wanting to take him out with The Mexican Maelstrom before The Heart Break Boy shoved him away and dropped him with The Goldprint. In the main event, Scott Oasis would defeat Atiliano Castillos in a qualifying match to place himself into the Elimination Chamber Match. The following week, The Heart Break Boy would defeat Drake Jaeger and The Mexican Samurai would be defeated by TLA in singles competition. In the main event under Extreme Rules, Methuselah would earn his spot in the chamber match by defeating Tig Kelly.

Ares Vendetta retained his EAW Answers World Championship at Showdown: Rite of Passage, making him the champion leading into Road to Redemption. A day after the event, it was announced that Devan Dubian and Tiberius Jones would face each other in a qualifying match for the Elimination Chamber Match for the world championship at Road to Redemption. In the match, Devan Dubian would win the match through some very concerning circumstances. After being Devan was knocked into the referee, Tiberius Jones would be assaulted by Lannister to cause the count-out victory for Devan to qualify into the match.

At Shock Value, Y2Impact became the new EAW Champion after defeating Aren Mstislav and Matt Miles inside of High Voltage. It would be announced that Y2Impact would be defending his championship inside of the Elimination Chamber Match, with the first qualifier set to be Nathan Fiora going up against Nasir Capitani.

At House of Glass, TLA would retain his EAW Interwire Championship and Drake Jaeger would be deemed the number one contender to the championship after being victorious in the Glass Gauntlet Match. On the Halloween edition of Dynasty, TLA would make his move on one of the harem women of Drake's, starting this rivalry for the championship with disdain made between the two. After a meeting inside The Poon Palace between the two, the championship match would be made between the two at Road to Redemption in a Lumberjack Match where the harem and TLA's "ladies of The Poon Palace" would serve as the Lumberjacks. The following week, Drake Jaeger would be defeated by The Heart Break Boy and TLA would go on to defeat The Mexican Samurai in singles competition.

With the EAW Tag Team Championship left to be vacated at House of Glass, a tournament was set into place to crown a new champion. Deemed the EAW Tag Team Grand Prix, it would be announced that the finals would be held at Road to Redemption and the winners would be crowned the new champions.
