AEW is set to bring its highly anticipated event, AEW: Forbidden Door, to Long Island, NY, with a live pay-per-view on Sunday, June 30th, at UBS Arena. This event promises to be a major spectacle, continuing the tradition of high-caliber wrestling showcases that AEW fans have come to expect.
During a recent episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer discussed the scale of this year’s Forbidden Door event, highlighting the extensive collaboration between multiple wrestling promotions. Meltzer revealed, “This Forbidden Door is going to have STARDOM, CMLL, New Japan, and AEW together. So, maybe some Mexicans. They’re at the Forum in Los Angeles.” This statement underscores the global reach and diversity of talent that will be featured, as wrestlers from at least four different companies come together to compete for company pride.
Meltzer also pointed out the potential marketing strategy for the event, suggesting that including prominent wrestlers like Mistico could significantly boost local interest and ticket sales. He emphasized, “It would be smart to have someone like Mistico help ‘promote the hell out of it in the local market.’ His drawing power could certainly help AEW sell some tickets.” The inclusion of such high-profile talent could play a crucial role in attracting a larger audience and ensuring the event’s success.
AEW: Forbidden Door has consistently raised the bar each year, delivering memorable and exciting wrestling matches that captivate fans worldwide. This year is expected to be no different, with the collaboration between STARDOM, CMLL, New Japan, and AEW promising to bring a unique and thrilling experience to the audience.
As anticipation builds for June 30th, fans eagerly await to see how AEW will once again deliver an unforgettable event. The combination of top-tier talent and strategic promotions suggests that AEW: Forbidden Door at UBS Arena will be a standout moment in professional wrestling for 2024.
