Bryan Danielson Vs. Kazuchika Okada Official For AEW X NJPW Forbidden Door

A dream match has been booked for Sunday June 25th.

At the end of the New Japan pay-per-view Dominion, Bryan Danielson appeared onscreen to issue a challenge to Kazuchika Okada. The American Dragon stated that he wants to face The Rainmaker at Forbidden Door to find out who the best wrestler in the world truly is.

New Japan presented a press conference on June 6th, where the match was made official.

Okada stated that he wrestled last year at Forbidden Door, but that the opponents of Adam Cole, Jay White and Hangman Adam Page, were against people he has previously been in the ring with. However, the former IWGP Heavyweight Champion has never competed against Danielson before.

Also appearing at the press conference was Will Ospreay, who is scheduled to face Kenny Omega for the IWGP United States Championship at the pay-per-view. Ospreay stated that he was embarrassed by Omega at Wrestle Kingdom, and intends on returning the favour in Toronto.

The announced card for AEW X NJPW Forbidden Door is as follows:

  • Bryan Danielson vs. Kazuchika Okada
  • Kenny Omega (c) vs. Will Ospreay – Singles match for the IWGP United States Championship
