Ospreay and Mercedes Moné Win Owen Hart Cups as Andrade Turns on MJF at Forbidden Door

The June 28 crossover show delivered two tournament winners who earned All In title shots and a cage-match betrayal that books Mark Briscoe a world-title match on Dynamite.

Overview

  • At the AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door event on June 28, 2026, Will Ospreay won the men’s Owen Hart Foundation tournament and Mercedes Moné won the women’s tournament, with each earning a world-title opportunity at All In in London.
  • Team Briscoe defeated Team MJF in a chaotic 12-man steel cage match after Andrade El Idolo refused MJF’s orders, attacked the champion and revealed a shirt denouncing MJF and Don Callis.
  • Mark Briscoe’s victory in the cage earned him a scheduled AEW World Championship match against MJF on the July 1 Dynamite episode, a change confirmed by post-show coverage.
  • Forbidden Door produced no championship changes on the night but expanded its cross-promotional format to include CMLL and Stardom and was distributed across multiple streaming and pay-per-view partners.
  • Tony Khan’s public praise of Maya World and her deep tournament run have raised her profile inside AEW, and the event’s results shift short-term storylines by creating new All In challengers and fracturing the Don Callis Family faction.
