AEW X NJPW Forbidden Door 2023 could be adding yet another eagerly anticipated singles match to the two potential classics currently confirmed.
Per Fightful Select, CM Punk Vs KENTA is a possibility AEW X NJPW Forbidden Door 2023. They reported that;
“We haven’t heard that KENTA’s deal to appear at the show is finalized, but both companies are operating on the assumption that he is. However, the internally discussed opponent brings a different gravity to the situation. We’ve learned that CM Punk has been discussed as KENTA’s opponent, which could help bring closure to an over-decade back and forth between the two.”
The AEW star CM Punk and NJPW star KENTA have been linked together in the minds of fans for the better part of 15 years at this point thanks in-part to Punk lifting the Go-2-Sleep finisher early into his WWE run. Then working for Pro Wrestling NOAH, KENTA had popularised the move years before the Punk brought it to the market leader, and based on some of the banter between the two sides over the years, it apparently happened without permission.
CM Punk returns to action for AEW on June 17th, headlining the debut edition of new TNT broadcast Collision show alongside FTR against Samoa Joe, Jay White and Juice Robinson.
