Plans for a potential Nigel McGuinness’ AEW Forbidden Door title match have been confirmed.

Tonight’s AEW Collision saw the announcement of a number one contender’s match for Zack Sabre Jr.’s IWGP World Heavyweight Championship.

Billed as a “technical spectacle”, it was announced that AEW commentator Nigel McGuinness will be taking on Daniel Garcia, Hechicero and Lee Moriarty in a four-way on next Saturday’s episode of Collision August 16 – with the winner of the match advancing to face Sabre Jr. in London.

While we won’t know who will earn the shot at Sabre Jr. until next week, a match between he and McGuinness would be the first time the two technical greats have faced off in a singles match.

AEW Forbidden Door 2025 is also set to take place in both men’s home country of England – at London’s 02 Arena.

We will provide updates on any more AEW Forbidden Door 2025 match announcements as they happen.
