The IWGP Heavyweight title will be defended at the upcoming
AEWxNJPW: Forbidden Door pay-per-view and reigning champion
Zack Sabre Jr will find out his opponent on next week’s
Collision.
A four-way match between Hechicero, Lee Moriarty, Daniel
Garcia, and Nigel McGuinness will determine who will go on to
face Sabre in his home country of England.
The IWGP title is defended every year at Forbidden Door. Last
year, Tetsuya Naito retained the title after he defeated Jon
Moxley. In 2023, Sanada defeated “Jungle Boy” Jack Perry to
retain, and in 2022 champion Jay White retained in a four-way
match that also included Adam Page, Kazuchika Okada, and Adam
Cole.
