The Crockett Cup was created by Jim Crockett Promotions to pay tribute to the late Jim Crockett Sr. The first event was held in 1986, won by The Road Warriors. Two subsequent tournaments were held, won by Nikita Koloff and Dusty Rhodes in 1987 and Sting and Lex Luger in 1988. The tournament did not continue after Turning Broadcasting purchased Jim Crockett Promotions in late-1988, transforming it into WCW.
Under Billy Corgan's ownership, the NWA revived the Crockett Cup Tournament for the first time since 1988 in 2019, with Villain Enterprises winning the tournament. In 2020, the planned Crockett Cup tournament was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year will be the return for the event.
