Paid Members gmoney Posted June 11 Paid Members Posted June 11 (edited) I hope not, for sadness reasons. But also Mick's on record saying he hates cage matches as he's shit in them, so it wouldn't exactly be a fitting tribute, if that's what they're going for. Edited June 11 by gmoney Quote

TK will probably just stick a roof on the cage and have MJF throw Foley off it. Quote
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted June 11 Paid Members Posted June 11 Classic AEW booking here. On one hand you've got Ospreay/Swerve and Omega/Sabre which are going to be a perfect blend of absolutely bonkers fun madness that'll blow the roof of the place. Then on the other side you've got a huge gimmick match with possible the lamest stipulation ever. Six blokes have to go through a brutal cage just so one of them can get a title shot later (which he is obviously going to lose). A right load of bollocks. Quote

I think a better stipulation is that if Briscoe's team win then all the members of that side get a title shot in July on Dynamite/Collision before the next PPV. The caveat for the heels is obviously a big pay day from MJF. I'm not sure how it's going to go, and I'm still not 100 convinced it's going to happen but Omega has to be taking the belt at Redemption next month to face Ospreay at Wembley hasn't he?!

That'd work. Do a big 7 man clusterfuck title party match on TV would be a lot of fun. Quote

Paid Members BomberPat Posted June 11 Paid Members Posted June 11 yeah, it feels like every time MJF gets the belt they make a show of having a bunch of different people all gunning for him, and the one thing they haven't done with that is have him defend against all of them at once. Quote

The King Of Swing Posted June 11 Posted June 11 I'm usually one of the more optimistic people on here, but even I'm struggling to care. Quote
Paid Members Supremo Posted June 19 Paid Members Posted June 19 Okada in the cage match is brilliant. Second to the three times a year when he actually tries and becomes the best wrestler in the world, my other favourite version of Okada is when he’s booked in wild, violent stipulation matches, but just mooches about aimlessly, hitting weak-as-piss Lance Storm chair shots.

Paid Members LaGoosh Posted June 19 Paid Members Posted June 19 Apparently visa issues have massively affected them being able to bring people in for Forbidden Door this year so that'll explain why it's mostly a standard AEW PPV. Quote
FTR2020 Posted June 19 Posted June 19 This doesn't seem like it will be a A+ ppv but it should have some good matches on there. I think if Athena is in the final that her and Mercedes Mone can have a really good match. I think Ospreay Vs Swerve will be the best match of the night. Quote
Paid Members Supremo Posted June 19 Paid Members Posted June 19 (edited) The Forbidden Door concept feels close to dead regardless. At this point, it only exists as a sort of annual Advent Calendar, where everyone get a little sweet treat as we count down until Zack Sabre Jr’s New Japan contract expires.
