Storylines
Into The Fight 2019 featured ten professional wrestling matches involving 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.

Event
During the event, Michael Nakazawa had his final match before going to All Elite Wrestling. Originally, the match was supposed to be a five-on-one handicap match in which Nakazawa would face the team of Sanshiro Takagi, Masahiro Takanashi, Tomomitsu Matsunaga, Keisuke Okuda and Hiroshi Yamato. However, during the match, Yamato hit Nakazawa with a "Sliding X" and pinned him for the win in only 18 seconds. Nakazawa was granted a rematch which he lost when Okuda submitted him with a cross armbreaker in 25 seconds. Eventually, all the participants agreed to change the match to a regular six-man tag team match that Nakazawa's team won.

The event also saw the two main multi-competitor titles change hands; Sendai Girls' Pro Wrestling (Meiko Satomura, Dash Chisako and Chihiro Hashimoto) won the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championship from All Out (Konosuke Takeshita, Akito and Yuki Iino), and Damnation (Daisuke Sasaki and Soma Takao) captured the KO-D Tag Team Championship from Moonlight Express (Mike Bailey and Mao).

The main event was a two-out-of-three falls match between Harashima and Muscle Sakai where each fall was competed under different rules. In the first fall, the competitors were playing a game of Daruma-san ga Koronda while wrestling. Whenever the phrase "Daruma-san ga Koronda!" (だるまさんが転んだ!) was shouted into the microphone, both wrestlers had to freeze. Failing to do so would result in a strike and the first one to get three strikes would be disqualified. Muscle Sakai won the first fall when Harashima got his third strike. In the second fall, both wrestlers had to constantly have a conversation with another person on their phones. Interrupting the call for three seconds would result in a disqualification. Harashima won the fall when Sakai's phone got knocked out of his hands and he failed to retrieve it in time. The final fall could only be won by getting pinned by the opponent for a three-count. Harashima won the fall when he kicked Sakai in the head and Sakai fell on top of him for the unintentional pin. As a result, Harashima retained the DDT Extreme Division Championship.
