The arc is named after the arc of the same name from the 2011 revival manga. Pony Canyon describes the story:

Prince Kinnikuman, who came to Earth from Kinnikusei, a planet at the end of the universe, was always ridiculed by people as a useless Chojin. However, by chance, he was given the right to participate in the Chojin World Cup, a tournament to determine the world’s best Chojin, and miraculously won the championship. He even won again the following year!

Since then, he has become a central figure among Seigi Chojin, protecting the peace of the universe. He has managed to defeat the raging forces of the enemy, including Akuma Chojin, who wants to take over the world, and Perfect Chojin, who wants to wipe out the weak Chojin on Earth, with the power of friendship with his friends, including Terryman and Robin Mask.

In recognition of his achievements, Kinnikuman wins the “Battle of Survival for the Kinnikusei Throne,” the final test of his career, and is crowned the 58th Great King of Kinnikusei! He returned from Earth to his home planet, got married, and said goodbye to eight years of fighting. About a year and a half later, peace would reign throughout the universe…

The manga creator duo known as Yudetamago took their original Kinnikuman Wrestling manga as a free web manga in 2011. The creators went back to their first 1979 Kinnikuman plot and continued where they left off in 1987. The original manga has inspired various anime series and films for television.
