AEW Announces New Title Match for Forbidden Door

The card for Forbidden Door continues to take shape, with a major championship match confirmed during the July 31 broadcast of AEW Collision.

During a backstage segment, Athena formally declared her intention to cash in her championship opportunity. The current Ring of Honor Women’s Champion will challenge Toni Storm for the AEW Women’s World Title at the upcoming pay-per-view.

Athena secured her guaranteed title shot by winning a Casino Battle Royal, and on Collision, she made it clear she would not wait to use it, setting the stage for a high-stakes encounter.

The championship bout will take place at The O2 Arena in London, England, on Sunday, August 24. The location adds a layer of intrigue to the matchup, as Storm has a history of losing championships while competing in London.
