Update on Eddie Kingston’s recovery from injury ahead of the 2025 Forbidden Door PPV event

AEW star Eddie Kingston has been out of action due to a leg injury that required surgery and he later noted that he has been dealing with stomach issues.

While there was talk of Eddie potentially returning in the summer, he noted the following in a video published to Cezar Bononi’s YouTube channel…

“I am disappointed that it looks like, I’m just saying it now, it looks like I’m not going to be able to do Forbidden Door again. Everybody else has their favorites, you know what I mean? And my favorite was always Forbidden Door.”

“The Japanese dudes are my dudes. I wanted to fight Shingo (Takagi) or Yuya (Uemura), which is one of the young lions they got there that’s coming up in the game. I would love to fight Shota (Umino). There’s so many. Taichi. I would love to fight Taichi because he was trained by Kawada. Everyone knows my history with Toshiaki Kawada-san. Hopefully, this comes out and I’m wrong and I’m actually at Forbidden Door fighting somebody.” (quotes courtesy of F4WOnline.com)
