    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.

    House of Black stand tall

    Malakai Black and Brody King won a four-way match that saw Private Party get pinned. To get people interested in the card, all men involved (HOB, Tomohiro Ishii and Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong and Gabriel Kidd, and Private Party) did exactly what they needed to do.

    Grade: B-

    Willow Nightingale and Tam Nakano overpower Kris Statlander and Momo Watanabe

    The UBS Arena/Long Island crowd loved Willow Nightingale. Willow and Statlander were kept separate initially, while Watanabe and Nakano used Strong Style to tear the house down. Statlander dominated Nakano while drawing the ire of Willow. Statlander avoided a pounce attempt. The rivals finally faced off, and Statlander tried to take advantage of a beatdown.

    Statlander and Willow came to blows, with Willow getting the better end of the action. The former forced Willow to spear her partner. Willow almost won the match, and a piledriver by Watanabe almost won it. A pounce by Willow, and she moved Statlander away from the action. Bridging Suplex by Nakano for the win.

    Grade: B+

    Mariah May advances in the Women's Owen Hart Tournament

    Mariah May was one of the most over wrestlers and she will pull double duty tonight. Toni Storm, as expected, was the star of the show. May used a form of her own and Storm’s offense. Hip Attack. Storm tried to help May by getting rid of Harley Cameron but got distracted. Luckily, it did not mean a finish. Submission attempt but May got out of it. May with a rollup for the win to advance.

    Grade: B

    Penta, Fenix, and Mistico beat LIJ

    Wrestlers from AEW, CMLL, and NJPW were all in the ring together, what a world. Titan and Fenix electrified the crowd to start things off. Penta and Tsuji squared off and the crowd was enamored by them. Tsuji has an aura about him.

    Takahashi played teammate in peril until Los Ingobernables de Japon woke up. Mistico was in trouble throughout the contest but managed to catch fire. All six men got dropped down to the delight of the crowd. Lucha Brothers double team Takahashi, who was not legal. Titan and Mistico were the last ones left standing, and Mistico landed an armbar for the win.

    Grade: A

    Hometown hero MJF takes down Hechicero

    Hechicero and hometown favorite MJF opened the show. MJF went crowd surfing, shook Hechicero's hand and blindsided him. Wearing Islander colors, MJF played for the crowd. Hechicero used his technical side to subdue MJF. tilt-a-whirl backbreaker by the masked wrestler. High knee to the face and Hechicero was mocking MJF. With a hurt arm, MJF fought back. A transition to an armbar had the crowd in shock.

    MJF's arm was going through it. He eventually fought back and landed a Canadian Destroyer, or Panama Sunrise, a la his former partner Adam Cole. He earned the win to the roar of the crowd.

    MJF opened the PPV portion of the show to get the crowd going. Back from injury, he appears back in the zone. Hechicero proved why he was a worthy opponent.

    Grade: A-

    Kazuchika Okada, Young Bucks too much for Hiroshi Tanahashi, The Acclaimed

    The Acclaimed teamed up with Hiroshi Tanahashi to face Kazuchika Okada and The Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicolas Jackson). Max Caster had his best rap down to the ring in quite some time. Okada and Tanahashi faced off first, teasing the fans of their old rivalry. Bowens landed a double leg drop to the Bucks. Caster played face in peril while Okada mocked him with dancing.

    Bowens got into the ring. The Bucks tried using Sting's moves but to no avail. Okada and Tanahashi back in the ring. Tanahashi with a top rope rolling senton. Sweeping Okada's leg, Tanahashi tried a submission, but every man in the ring got involved to stop it. Rainmaker attempted turned into a Tanahashi splash attempt but the Bucks stopped it. Splash blocked by knees. Superkicks everywhere.

    Back to Tanahashi and Okada. Elbow drop by Okada, who flips off the crowd. Rainmaker attempt turned into a rollup. Dropkick by Okada followed by a Rainmaker for the three.

    A solid match featuring two top tag teams and two legends from Japan. Tanahashi can still go, and his rivalry with Okada is still something that gets fans going.

    Grade: A
