An AEW star wants to be in action at Forbidden Door 2
May 12, 2023
A star of All Elite Wrestling has pitched to be involved at the upcoming joint Forbidden Door pay-per-view between AEW and New Japan Pro-Wrestling.
While speaking about AEW's upcoming tour of Canada this summer, Shawn Spears revealed he has suggested an idea for Forbidden Door 2.
"I even sent out an idea today for a Forbidden Door 2, you know, it's a special kick-off. Forbidden Door's massive, and Toronto's always been more than gracious, more than welcoming to me. Like you mentioned, last October, a very vulnerable, personal, but very public moment for me there. And I'm being biased, but the Canadians, you can almost feel the acceptance and comfort coming from an audience like that," Spears told WrestleZone.
"I have no doubt that with all of the shows - and I think we're hitting the [Canadian Prairies] and almost everything out to the west coast, which is fantastic. I hope to be on those shows, I look forward to being on those shows. If not, you're gonna hear [stories], 'Shawn Spears got in trouble backstage for yelling at the fact that he wasn't on Canadian shows and threw a bag down the hall and kicked a door.' So if I'm not on those shows, they're going to have to yank me out of there kicking and screaming."
Spears has been a part of AEW since 2019 and he was one of the promotion's top early signings. He returned to AEW TV in April 2023 after several months away and he has so far lost to "Jungle Boy" Jack Perry in singles action and to Bullet Club Gold in a tag team match alongside Ricky Starks.
