Japanese fans should check NJPW World for coverage options and any special local arrangements. NJPW World has previously offered live streams and big event coverage, and may publish details for Forbidden Door closer to the event date.

How viewers in other territories can watch the show live

AEW confirms select international partners from time to time, including Triller and additional digital PPV platforms in certain markets.

The preshow, often called the Buy-In or Zero Hour, will stream free on AEW’s official YouTube channel, making it easy to catch undercard action and match build before the paid main card begins.
