AEW Forbidden Door 2026 Lineup Confirmed For Tonight

Once again, All Elite Wrestling opens the Forbidden Door. Not only does New Japan come through, but STARDOM and CMLL.

But the bigger point is that we will see who passes through the Owen Hart Finals. Can Maya World beat the CEO in Mercedes Moné, and is Will Ospreay able to get past Swerve Strickland?

That is a question we will soon see on this pay-per-view.

We come to you at the SAP Center in San Jose, CA. And let’s enjoy the…

Forbidden Door Buy In

Yeah, I shoulda covered it, but I should also get a million bucks. You get what ya paid for.

Now for the actual…

Forbidden Door

Excalibur, Nigel McGuinness, and Walker Stewart from New Japan have the call, and your First Match is…

The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) vs. El Sky Team (Místico and Máscara Dorada) vs. Unbound Co. (Shingo Takagi and Titán)

Hey, that’s a fun way to kick off the PPV. Plus Dorada and MÍstico are ROH Tag champs heading in.

Huh. Go figure.

Místico and Títan start and then a tag to Nick, and we see acrobatics like never before. The Bucks display their best hits on El Sky Team, but Dorada has moves, too

Another tag and Títan comes in and shows El Sky Team why they are Unbound. Dorada sends Títan to the outside on Takagi and the Bucks, and seriously, even Windex can’t wipe away these spots, but the fans love it.
The end comes as the Bucks deliver the Meltzer Driver to Titan to secure the victory.

Your Winners: The Young Bucks

Now it’s time for your next match between…

Kenny Omega vs. Zack Sabre, Jr.

Again, get out your special sock, nerds. This is gonna get good.

Right away, there is just good chain wrestling from the two of them that goes into a test of strength. It’s not long before Sabre picks apart The Cleaner. The action spills out of the ring, and he uses joint manipulation on Omega.

He slams Sabre’s head on the commentary desk outside, and hits a double stomp.

They battle on the Spanish Announce Desk and Sabre counters. He continues to pick apart Omega, but he turns it around and takes to the skies. Omega lines up a V-Trigger, but Sabre catches him. It’s a slugfest until it switches to a submission battle between the two. Omega sends him to the top until Sabre gets a sleeper, but he drills him down with an avalanche splash. He nails two knee strikes and a poison ‘rana. Both men go hold for counterhold until Omega delivers the One-Winged Angel to win.

Your Winner via Pinfall: Kenny Omega

Time to get into title action with…

AEW Continental Championship: Jon Moxley (c) vs. Bandido

Moxc is still on top as the Continental champion, but Bandido has some promise and wants to add more gold in addition to his ROH World title.

It’s mostly a grapple fest at the start, but soon they get into a chop fest, and Bandido gets the best of Mox. There’s a tope suicida by Mox, but Bandido flies as well. At one point, Mox uses the steel steps to hit Bandido with a Piledriver.

Bandido starts bleeding above the mask, and Mox tears at it, adding insult to injury. He picks him apart and then mounts with punches, but Bandido gives a running powerbomb.

He gets his second wind and takes the fight to Mox. He attempts a Guerrero frog splash, but Mox gets his knees up in time. The 21 Plex is blocked, and Mox nails the Death Rider for a close two count. Up top Bandido connects with an avalanche Spanish fly.

21 plex is countered with a sleeper into a bulldog choke. Bandido tries to get him to release, but he has it cinched tight, and Referee Aubrey Evens calls it.

Your Winner via Referee Stoppage, and Still AEW Continental Champion: Jon Moxley

After the match, Mox extends a hand and earns his respect.

Now for your next match for the…

IWGP Global Heavyweight Championship: Shota Umino (c) vs. PAC

Apparently, Umino defeated Andrade El Ídolo for the belt, but really, this is just a match between the former disciple of Mox versus the current disciple.

PAC takes him out and slams him across the barricades. Back in the ring they go, and Umino shows he’s no young boy anymore. This is a strike fest, and Umino is in the driver’s seat.

He nails a DDT to PAC outside and sends him back in, only for him to roll out, and he rushes for a running dropkick to the barricades. Another DDT and rolls him in for a powerbomb for a count of two. PAC is in control and nails an avalanche belly to back suplex for a two count. He taunts the champ, and they slug it out until PAC launches him to a table propped outside. Back in the ring, PAC hits the 450 splash for another two count and locks in the Brutalizer until Umino gets a boot on the rope. They’re firing live rounds, but Umino hits a Paradigm Shift and the Northern Lights bomb to retain.

Your Winner, and Still IWGP Global CHampion: Shota Umino

Mox and Shafir come out to face Umino, until New Japan President Hiroshi Tanahashi comes out. Let’s hear it for the Ace of Shin Nihon Puroresu.

Tony Schiavone joins the commentary as now is the time for some revenge and retribution as this match is for the…

AEW Women’s World Championship: Thekla (c) vs. Starlight Kid

Folks, if you wanna learn how to get back at your former employers, take notes here. Plus, STARDOM president Taro Okada is in attendance at ringside.

The match begins, and Starlight is in control. After a breather outside, Thekla gets toxic in a hurry. She throws Starlight around and then gets in Okada’s grill.

Starlight then attacks her leg and picks the Toxic Spider apart. She drives Thekla to the apron edge. Then she follows with a suplex and attempts a moonsault, but there’s no water in the pool. Two double stomps later, and the Toxic Spider hangs on.

Your Winner and Still AEW Women’s World Champion: Thekla

After the match, Skye Blue and Julia Hart come in as Thekla rips off Starlight’s mask and spits in it, and rubs it in Okada’s face

Next, we have a heated feud for the…

AEW World Tag Team Championship: Cope and Cage (Adam Copeland and Christian Cage) (c) vs. The Dogs (David Finlay and Clark Connors)

Cage has the brace on his arm, which will play a part in this match. Plus, give props to the fans chanting, “Who’s your Daddy?”

Heh, classic.

Cage and Connors start, and the vet shows the young pup a thing or two. Tag to Cope and Finlay, and it’s more of the same. A double team by Cope and Cage, and they hit Connors’ head right into Findlay’s…err, little shillelaghs.

A bad turn by Cage and the Dogs isolate him and makes sure this Father Figure is in Peril, even targeting the brace on his arm. He fights his way out, but they try to slam the steel steps on the brace until Cope makes the save and gets the hot tag, and he is a Rated R Superstar en Fuego. A spear is averted, and The Dogs double tackle Cope. It’s bedlam in and out of the ring until The Dogs get a chop block/spear combo on Cope for a two count. The Full Clip is countered, and Cope and Cage hit a double team, but the ref is knocked out.

Finlay clocks Cage with the shillelagh and goes for Cope until the lights go out. Then we see The Bang Bang Gang appear at the top of the ramp. Then the lights go out again and when they come back, it’s Jay White in the ring who gives a Blade Runner to help[ Cope and Cage retain.

Your Winners, and Still AEW World Tag Team Champions: Cope and Cage

Now for the first three main events, with the…

Women’s Owen Hart Cup Final: Mercedes Moné vs. Maya World

The winner receives an AEW Women’s World Championship match at the All In PPV. World has had quite the push in this tournament and somewhere Miranda Alize and Tegan Nox are kicking themselves for not staying with the program. As for Moné, this is her chance to become a repeat winner of the tournament, so the pressure is on her to make history.

At the start, World goes for quick pins, and Moné ducks out to compose herself, while fans hit dueling chants of “Let’s go My-ah/C-E-O!” The CEO is in control, but World is not making it easy for Moné. They battle up top, but Moné hits a Meteora on the edge and again on the outside.

She nails a third one in the ring to cover, and World kicks out. She sends her out and then throws World back in to give her a backstabber to a straitjacket choke. World stages a comeback, and both women go back and forth, as World shows pluck throughout. Moné gives World a sunset flip turnbuckle bomb and covers for a two count. A Moneymaker also gives her a near fall.
The action goes outside as World gives a sunset flip powerbomb to the floor, followed by a moonsault.

Back in for another moonsault press, and World gets another count of two. She gets Moné in a Bank Statement, but the CEO reverses it and hits Another Backstabber to a Bank statement and World finally taps out.

Your Winner via Submission: Mercedes Moné

She is now a two-time winner of the Owen Hart Foundation tournament. Amazing what happens when you step away from World Wrestling Entertainment.

Renee Paquette is backstage with Athena, with some harsh words on Maya World.

Leave it be said that the Fallen Goddess has some unfinished business with her former protege.

But now we have something for the sickos in a…

Steel Cage match: MJF and The Don Callis Family (Kevin Knight, Kyle Fletcher, Jake Doyle, Kazuchika Okada, and Andrade El Ídolo) vs. Team Briscoe (Mark Briscoe, Orange Cassidy, Roderick Strong, Kyle O’Reilly, Konosuke Takeshita, and Darby Allin)

If Briscoe’s team wins, he will earn an AEW World Championship match against MJF. Also, it’s interesting to note that the cage is circular, which encompasses the ring and the floor. Justin Roberts calls it “Death’s Door.”

Cute.

As for the match, let me explain…no, there is too much. Let me bullet point this with the major parts of the match:

  • Strong comes in with a bag, as do the rest of The Conglomeration
  • It’s a Pier Twelve brawl, and somewhere Teddy Long is wishing he had come up with this concept. Holler if ya hear me playa.
  • Tables come out with Team DCMFJ logos. Funny.
  • Things get heated between MJF and El Ídolo during the melee
  • The conglomeration uses an original Nintendo to beat Team MJF
  • Tacks come into play, as Fletcher slams him into it back first, and Allin goes into them face first. Dear God, the man has no fear (or sense)
  • Cassidy breaks out orange slices for a hydration break, and then squirts the juice into Fletcher’s eyes
  • The Jet hits a Van Terminator on Allin
  • Team MJF unzips the bag Strong carried in, and Lio Rush appeared until team DCMJF stuff him back in
  • Fletcher and Takeshita battled on the apron edge until The Alpha hits a Blue Thunder bomb on a table
  • The Jet tries to open a bag that was booby-trapped, and he descends to a table on the floor
  • El ídolo turns on MJF and wears a shirt that says, “F*** Don F*** MJF”, and that allows Briscoe to hit the Jay Driller on Doyle to gain the win.

Your Winners: Team Briscoe

After the match, Lexy Nair is with Mark Briscoe on his team’s win, and despite audio issues, he wants to challenge MJF for the title this Wednesday on Dynamite

There is a video montage on how Strickland and Ospreay advanced

The stakes are high for the main event in the…

Men’s Owen Hart Cup Final: Swerve Strickland (with Prince Nana) vs. Will Ospreay

The winner will receive an AEW World Championship match at All In. Ospreay comes out in a Bane mask, and Strickland comes out on a Harley, channeling his inner Lobo, ya bastich.

After the boxing-style intros by Justin Roberts, both men swing for the fences. They go for their finishers early to no avail. Ospreay is in control, dives outside, and then presses the attack. A rolling flatliner by Strickland gets a two count. He connects with three neckbreakers and then a back drop to weaken Ospreay’s neck.

The Aerial Assassin stages a comeback and evens things up with attacks to Strickland’s neck. The Hidden Blade is thwarted, and Strickland taunts him until he unloads on the Most Dangerous. As Strickland exposes the steel of the turnbuckles, he goes after Ospreay, who throws him to the steel post and then cinches an armbar.

Strickland gets the upper hand and sends him to the steel steps. Ospreay is busted open, and Strickland picks his moments while taunting him, but runs into a Spanish Fly.

A Styles Clash almost gets Ospreay a two count. The Hidden Blade finds the mark, but Strickland shrugs it off and levels him. The big spot of the night has Ospreay counter an avalanche powerbomb to a huracanrana
Both men unload big moves, but neither gets the advantage. Now Strickland is thrown to the steel steps and is showing crimson that is possibly a 4 on the Muta Scale. Ospreay clears the commentary desk, but after interference by Nana, Strickland hits a House Call. He goes to slam him on the steps until Ospreay reverses and nails the Styles Clash on commentary.

Back in the ring, both men are running on empty, but Ospreay displays his Death Rider teachings. The ref starts to count Strickland out, but he bounces up and eats a Hidden Blade for a near fall. Strickland counters with a Vertebreaker that gets two, and neither man is staying down. Mox and the Death Riders come out to cheer on Ospreay. A Paradigm Shift, followed by a Death Rider and the Tiger Driver, finally takes Ospreay over the top in one, two, and three.

Your Winner via Pinfall: Will Ospreay

Ospreay has done it and punched his ticket to Wembley Stadium. While there were some misgivings as his missus, Alex Windsor, comes to his side, Ospreay looks at The Death Riders as the show comes to a close.
