AEW vs NJPW
All Elite confirmed that Hiroshi Tanahashi will be taking on Hirooki Goto in an Eliminator Match for the Interim All Elite Wrestling Championship.
The winner of that match will then go on to the All Elite x NJPW Forbidden Door PPV event on Sunday, June 26th to face the winner of the Eliminator Series on AEW Dynamite.
It is expected that the company will be going with Jon Moxley vs Hiroshi Tanahashi at the Forbidden Door PPV; with fans believing that Moxley will go on to win the Interim title.
It’s not currently known how long CM Punk will be out after confirming he has to have surgery. Hopefully, we will be back sooner rather than later to challenge the Interim Champion, whoever that will be.
