Jon Moxley and Tetsuya Naito will face off once more at Forbidden Door on June 30th.

New Japan Pro Wrestling and AEW are just three weeks away from their annual Forbidden Door pay-per-view event which brings all the stars from both companies together to create the ultimate dream match scenarios you won't find anywhere else. This year provides an extra challenge due to several of NJPW 's stars going to both AEW and WWE, but it has opened a door for other promotions like STARDOM to join the fray.

This morning, NJPW held its Dominion event which saw IWGP Heavyweight Champion Jon Moxley defeat EVIL in a singles match. Afterward, Moxley issued an open challenge of sorts for anyone in the locker room to face him at the pay-per-view."A lot of guys throw out anytime, anywhere, anybody, but I mean any f---ing time, any f---ing where, any f---ing body," Mox said into the mic.

What Matches Are Part of Forbidden Door 3?As previously mentioned, this year STARDOM will collaborate with AEW on their first pay-per-view to bring in Mina Shirakawa who will face off against Toni Storm for the AEW Women's World Championship. Since Mina's arrival in AEW, she's rekindled her friendship with Mariah May. When May was part of STARDOM, Mina was the one that took her under her wing and mentored her in the Club Venus stable.

Another women's match taking place will likely be Mercedes Moné against Stephanie Vaquer, both champions in their respective companies. Moné is the TBS Champion in AEW while Vaquer holds the NJPW STRONG Women's Championship -- the same title that Moné was injured trying to win. Moné hasn't had any involvement with Japan since her injury took her out of action, cutting her NJPW run short.
