Hello everyone and welcome to 411mania’s LIVE coverage of AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, I’m Robert Winfree and I’ll be your host. Forbidden Door is usually a fun enough event with some decent crossover matches so let’s see what’s on the docket. The main event is pure chaos as Mark Briscoe, Orange Cassidy, Roderick Strong, Kyle O’Reilly, Konosuke Takeshita, and Darby Allin team up to take on Maxwell Jacob Friedman, Kevin Knight, Kyle Fletcher, Jake Doyle, Kazuchika Okada, and Andrade El Idolo. The whole point there is if Briscoe’s team wins he’ll get a title shot for MJF’s AEW world title. As mentioned, expect lots of chaos there. We’ve also got the Owen Hart Cup final matches, Mercedes Mone takes on Maya World and Will Ospreay battles Swerve Strickland. Ospreay and Swerve should be a great match, with Swerve leaning heel these days and Ospreay throwing his lot in with the Death Riders in a bid to finally win the big one in Wembley. Jon Moxley defends the Continental title against Bandido, Pac gets a crack at the IWGP Global title held by Shota Umino, Thekla defends the AEW women’s title against Starlight Kid as well. There’s also a three way tag match with the Middle Aged Bucks taking on El Sky Team of Mistico and Mascara Dorada along with Shingo Takagi and Titan as the third team. Cope and Cage will defend the tag belts against The Dogs of David Finlay and Clark Connors. All in all it’s a solid card on paper, if maybe a little over stuffed. Forbidden Door tends to be a fun event though rarely sees major shifts in titles, so let’s see how tonight plays out.
