My Top 5 Matches That I'm Looking Forward To At AEW And NJPW Forbidden Door.

Intro.

Ok, lets get the obvious stuff out of the way. I'm not going to Forbidden Door, this is due to money concerns, but I have plans to sit back with an oversized bag of Sour Patch Kids, and review the show. So I thought that I would run through the Matches that i'm most looking forward to, so here goes nothing.

5. Swerve Strickland vs Kazuchika Okada.

This Match pretty much speaks for itself. Their styles are very similar, so this is going to be exciting to watch. Okadas Match against Kenny Omega from All In last month, is one of my Matches of the year, and I have high hopes for this Match.

4. Timeless Toni Storm vs Athena AEW Womens Championship.

This has been the most solid build on this card. I have really enjoyed this build. I think their interactions have been the right balance between them.

3. Kyle Fletcher vs Hiromu Takahashi AEW TNT Championship.

This Match screams lofi Barnburner, and I can't wait to see it unfold. Both men have great in-ring styles, and fantastic counteractions, and yes I get the that there won't be much of a story to this, but sometimes you don't need a story in wrestling, because the Match itself is the story.

2. MJF vs Hangman Adam Page AEW Heavyweight Championship.

It's no secret that I think that MJF has been the best thing about AEW Television over the past few months, and his back and forths with Hangman have been excellent, so this going be something special. I'm a big fan of MJF, and I love Hangman, so the sight of two of my modern favourites clashing has me very excited.

1. Lights out Steel Cage Match.

What do you get when you mix together, a pair who are Golden in with an ace, a raving nutter, and a man who loves Greggs Sausage Rolls, in with death doom, and despair, if your answer is the lights out Steel Cage Match, then you'll be right. This screams all out carnage, and i'm not talking about a Chicago native eating baked goods, and burying a company in a press conference. This will be a perfect balance of visceral violence, and sickening compulsion, and I can't wait to see how this match unfolds.
