With just hours to go until the AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door pay-per-view, the first look at the steel cage for Lights Out main event has been revealed. A photo circulating on social media shows the structure being erected inside The O2 Arena in London, England.
The main event will see a team of AEW and NJPW’s top stars take on a formidable group of villains in an unsanctioned Lights Out match. The team of Will Ospreay, Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi, Darby Allin, and Hiroshi Tanahashi will step inside the cage to face the alliance of the Death Riders (Jon Moxley & Claudio Castagnoli), The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson), and NJPW’s Gabe Kidd.
The first look at the cage structure can be seen below:
