During last Wednesday night's AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door go-home episode of Dynamite, Will Ospreay revealed that he is not cleared to compete at Sunday's Forbidden Door pay-per-view and will need to undergo surgery in the near future. This is the reason the match is being called a Lights Out Match and will be considered unsanctioned.
According to PWInsider.com, Ospreay’s comments about needing neck surgery are completely true, and he plans to have the surgery soon.
Ospreay is scheduled to team with Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi, Hiroshi Tanahashi, and Darby Allin in a Lights Out Steel Cage match against Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, The Young Bucks, and Gabe Kidd.
