Will Ospreay is ready to build momentum heading into Forbidden Door.
On June 30th in New York, AEW, along with NJPW and CMLL, will present Forbidden Door. The main event is currently set to be a champion vs champion match between Will Ospreay and Swerve Strickland, with Swerve's AEW World Title being on the line.
On the June 12th edition of Dynamite however, it will be Ospreay who puts his AEW International Championship on the line vs Rey Fenix, and Ospreay is all to familiar with his challenger, taking to social media to highlight that familiarity and the importance of the match.
Looking forward to wrestling in Iowa for the first time in my career.

Myself & Fenix are extremely familiar with one another.
But momentum is key going into Forbidden Door.
