Forbidden Door Is An Instant Pre-Sale Sellout

By Corey Brennan Last updated May 5, 2022

Forbidden Door was announced last month as a partnered PPV between NJPW and AEW. Fans have been excited for the chance to see NJPW wrestlers face the best AEW has to offer. No matches have been confirmed for the card as of this writing.

Pre-sale tickets when on sale Thursday morning. Per WrestleTix on twitter, tickets sold out within 40 minutes and there were over 20,000 in the queue at one point.

Those are mostly gone. And now the limited view seats have been added:

This one is an instant sell out.

Stay tuned as some sections they are holding back on could open up (but they need some seats for the general public on-sale). As of now the setup will be in the neighborhood of 14K (unless they expand this map and open limited view seats) pic.twitter.com/i6rvPVtMyR
