Injuries have hurt the planning for this event, but the card is still really stacked well. I'll definitely be watching.

Tomohiro Ishii has been pulled from Forbidden Door due to a left knee injury.

Clark Connors has been named his replacement.

This PPV has just been snakebit with injuries. It's still a solid card, but a lot of what-ifs surround it.

Now forbidden door 2, that will be special.

In a way I guess that's the silver lining. Don't want the bar set so high from the first show that nothing after can top it.

One reason I think NJPW should win more of these matches. So now AEW has a reason for revenge the next time around. They lost more of the matches, AND had many guys out. That alone is your story to kick start forbidden door 2 whenever that might be.

I'm looking forward to the fatal 4 ways, those will be good.

I ordered the PPV today. Have a solid idea how the matches will go but I think they'll go all out. Expecting Claudio/Cesaro as the guy to face ZSJ.

I never even thought of that, I've tried avoiding any sort of rumors or spoilers, but him appearing would make so much sense.

Despite the injuries I'm still excited for this. I will be there so I better be. Though he has dismissed this on twitter the surprise could be Johnny Gargano. I'm still thinking it's Cesaro though. Which would be awesome either way.

Was thinking solely along the technical wrestler line. It's kind of been Cesaro's critique, good to great wrestler but bad on the mic.
