Four-way match for Forbidden Door IWGP title shot set for next AEW Collision
A four-way match will determine Zack Sabre Jr.’s challenger for Forbidden Door.
It was announced on Saturday that next week’s Collision will see Hechicero, Lee Moriarty, Daniel Garcia, and Nigel McGuiness do battle in a match where the winner will face Sabre for the IWGP World title at the joint NJPW/AEW pay-per-view on August 24 in London.
The match will be a clash between four of the top technical wrestlers in the company as they prepare to take on someone who has won the Best Technical Wrestler award in the Wrestling Observer Awards eight times. This will be McGuiness’ first match since Double or Nothing earlier this year when he and Garcia lost to FTR.
Hechicero, meanwhile, continued to build momentum ahead of his ROH World title match against champion Bandido at Death Before Dishonor by defeating AR Fox on Saturday. Lee Moriarty, the current ROH Pure Champion, recently lost to Dustin Rhodes in a match that was for the TNT title.
Here is the updated lineup for next week’s Collision:
AEW Collision (August 16):
- Four-way match, winner faces Zack Sabre Jr. at Forbidden Door: Hechicero vs. Lee Moriarty vs. Daniel Garcia vs. Nigel McGuiness
