ToggleThis weekend, pro wrestling will be up for a treat when two big wrestling promotions in the world present a joint venture, Forbidden Door 2023. All Elite Wrestling and New-Japan Pro Wrestling will be presenting the second annual edition of the pay-per-view that has already been touted as perhaps the best event of this year. After all, it’s coming with several cross-brand mouth-watering matches.
Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay are considered two of the best technical wrestlers in the pro wrestling business and they’re scheduled for a rematch at Forbidden Door 2023. The two previously paved the way to earn fame even outside the radar of the WWE and now they’re looking forward to one-upping each other.

The Cleaner Kenny Omega won the IWGP United States championship back in January by defeating Will Ospreay in one of the greatest matches in NJPW history. But it was teased that the feud was far from over. Earlier this month, it was confirmed that Ospreay will challenge Kenny Omega for the title at the AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2023. Last week, Ospreay even made a shocking return to AEW television and attacked Omega to close the show.
