Worlds collide when All Elite Wrestling presents Forbidden Door on June 30. The event on Long Island, featuring talent from New Japan Pro Wrestling, Stardom, CMLL, and more, airs on DAZN in the U.S.
One of the main events will feature Swerve Strickland defending the AEW World Title against Will Ospreay. Two of the top AEW signings of the past few years, Swerve and Ospreay have elevated their games since joining the company. Ospreay, the AEW International Champion, looks to become a double champion, while Swerve looks to extend his historic reign.
Mercedes Mone, the former Sasha Banks, also looks to become a double champion, but so does opponent Stephanie Vaquer. They compete in a “Winer Takes All” match for the AEW TBS (Mone) and the NJPW Strong (Vaquer) Women’s Titles. They have fought one another before, as Mone beat Vaquer in 2023 in a tournament to crown the Strong Women’s Champion.
