The tension in the All Elite Wrestling (AEW) Forbidden Door main event was palpable. Will Ospreay vs. Swerve Strickland in the Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament final with a shot at the AEW World Championship on the line at All In.

Ospreay vowed to live up to his dream of competing at Wembley Stadium in London. Strickland was hoping to play the spoiler in order to get the AEW world title back around his waist. The match would be a bloody affair between two of the top stars in the company.

Strickland knew what the gameplan was. He needed to slow Ospreay’s attack down to a snail’s pace and bring the match to him rather than trying to match the agility of his opponent. For the most part, he curtailed Ospreay’s attack. But as the match wore on, the hits got harder, both men were bleeding and one man had his hand raised in the end.

Both men gave it their all. With blood dripping down their faces, Osprey and Strickland stared each other down in the ring. Ospreay had The Death Riders cheering him on at ringside while Strickland had Prince Nana in his corner. It was coming down to the end.

Strickland hit the House Call but the strength in Ospreay’s neck appeared to take the hit. With all his might, Osprey ramped back up and hit Strickland with a Hidden Blade and a lariat Hidden Blade but Strickland kicked out of the pin.

Ospreay hit a Paradigm Shift, a Death Rider and a Tiger Driver. Finally, he was able to get the pin on Strickland. Ospreay is going to All In.

The Death Riders were in shock as they joined Ospreay in celebration in the ring.
