With championships on the line, dream matches booked, and rivalries reaching their boiling point, fans can expect a night full of unforgettable moments. Let’s break down the match card and give predictions for each bout.
Adam Copeland & Christian Cage vs. The Matriarchy (Killswitch & Kip Sabian)
This match has a mix of nostalgia and intensity. The reunion of Adam Copeland and Christian Cage is too big of a story for AEW to let pass by with a loss. Expect the veterans to pick up the win and deliver a feel-good moment.
Prediction: Adam Copeland & Christian Cage win.
TBS Championship: Mercedes Moné (c) vs. Alex Windsor vs. Persephone vs. Bozilla
Mercedes Moné has been positioned as the face of AEW’s women’s secondary title since her arrival. While the challengers bring diversity and intrigue, this doesn’t feel like the night her reign ends.
Prediction: Mercedes Moné retains the TBS Championship.
TNT Championship: Kyle Fletcher (c) vs. Hiromu Takahashi
Hiromu Takahashi will push Kyle Fletcher to his limits, but the TNT Championship feels like it’s being built around Fletcher right now. AEW is likely to give him a longer run before a major challenger dethrones him.
Prediction: Kyle Fletcher retains the TNT Championship.
AEW World Tag Team Championship: The Hurt Syndicate (c) vs. Brodido vs. FTR
Three powerhouse teams collide, but FTR remains one of the most decorated tag teams in modern wrestling. A big stage like Forbidden Door feels like the perfect spot for them to reclaim tag team gold.
Prediction: FTR win the AEW World Tag Team Championship.
AEW Women’s World Championship: Toni Storm (c) vs. Athena
Toni Storm has been one of the strongest champions in AEW history, and her momentum doesn’t look to be slowing down. Athena will make this competitive, but Storm is walking out of London still champion.
Prediction: Toni Storm retains the AEW Women’s World Championship.
Lights Out Steel Cage Match: Golden Lovers, Will Ospreay, Darby Allin & Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Death Riders, The Young Bucks & Gabe Kidd
This stacked 10-man war could easily steal the show. While Moxley’s group has the grit, Forbidden Door is taking place in London — the home turf of Will Ospreay. Expect the crowd to explode when Ospreay’s team stands tall in victory.
Prediction: Team Ospreay wins.
IWGP World Heavyweight Championship: Zack Sabre Jr. (c) vs. Nigel McGuinness
A dream match that blends technical wrestling mastery with storytelling history. Nigel wrestling in London again adds drama, but Zack Sabre Jr. is in his prime and too strong to dethrone here. Expect a technical classic with ZSJ retaining.
Prediction: Zack Sabre Jr. retains the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship.
AEW Unified Championship: Kazuchika Okada (c) vs. Swerve Strickland
Swerve has been incredible since rising to the main-event scene, but Okada is on another level and still in the middle of a dominant run. This one should be an instant classic, but Okada keeps his crown.
Prediction: Kazuchika Okada retains the AEW Unified Championship.
AEW World Championship: “Hangman” Adam Page (c) vs. MJF
The added stipulation that the title can change hands on DQ or count-out makes this interesting, but Hangman Page’s reign has been built to withstand these challenges. Expect drama, underhanded tactics from MJF, but ultimately, the champion survives.
Prediction: Hangman Page retains the AEW World Championship.
Final Thoughts
Forbidden Door 2025 is shaping up to be one of the most stacked cards AEW and NJPW have ever put together.
