AEW president Tony Khan is promoting that a wrestler will “walk through the Forbidden Door” this Wednesday on Dynamite.
Khan tweeted after Friday’s episode of Rampage that a “top wrestler” would be appearing this Wednesday to debut with the company.
He added that the door is open for anyone from any wrestling company regardless of whether AEW is on good terms with that promotion. They are also “welcome to slam the door in the face of their prior company.”
The debuting wrestler is set to appear on the show from Atlantic City, sign the contract, and shut the door on their previous company.
As referenced on #AEWRampage, I have a surprise: on #AEWDynamite Live on @TBSNetwork a top wrestler will walk through the Forbidden Door this Wednesday and debut in @AEW. More info to come. Thank you to everyone who joined us for a great Rampage tonight! See you Wednesday on TBS!

The Forbidden Door can be opened for anyone from any wrestling promotion in the world, whether or not it’s a company @AEW is on good terms with, even if it’s someone from a company that’s open for business. They’re also welcome to slam the door in the face of their prior company.
