The upcoming Forbidden Door pay-per-view is reportedly facing some uncertainty regarding talent assignments, according to Fightful Select.

Wrestlers from AEW, New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), and CMLL were said to be unaware of their specific roles for the event as of last week's Dynamite episode.

This development suggests that the final card for the highly anticipated crossover event is still taking shape, potentially keeping fans and talent alike on edge.

However, sources told Fightful that this situation is not uncommon, and participants often learn their match details closer to the show date.

This suggests that while the immediate lineup might be unclear, it aligns with typical operational procedures for such events.

The status of Gabe Kidd, who New Japan reportedly expected to play a significant role, also remains uncertain as AEW is said to be keeping details under wraps.

Beyond the Forbidden Door event, other wrestling rumors have surfaced.

Liv Morgan sparked injury concerns after appearing to take a bad hit to her lower leg at a house show.

Despite the initial worry, she reportedly walked out without apparent issue, and no further updates on any injury have been provided.

In AAA, Damian Priest made an appearance at a recent taping, leading to speculation that he could be the former world champion General Manager Rey Mysterio had been teasing.

Additionally, False Finish reported that AAA received permission from the family of Perro Aguayo Jr.

to use the 'Perros del Mal' name before the group's return on June 20.

Looking ahead, there are plans for Thea Hail to be utilized in EVOLVE in the near future, and some within WWE and AAA reportedly believe Xena will join once her commitments with Stardom conclude next month.

An update on Private Party indicates that both members sustained the same injury in the same match on March 28, according to Fightful.

There is currently no information available regarding their potential return to action.
