Notably, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/aew\/news-the-war-on-aew-announces-major-show-day-tna-ppv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">last month, the Jacksonville-based company announced<\/a> that it will be running its annual cross-promotional pay-per-view, Forbidden Door 2026, on June 28, the same day as TNA&#8217;s Slammiversary 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, news broke that neither Total Nonstop Action Wrestling nor its partner brand WWE had anticipated AEW scheduling Forbidden Door to go head-to-head against Slammiversary, which happens to be one of TNA&#8217;s biggest shows of the year. Now, it appears the company has moved the event start time to 3 PM Eastern Time, hours ahead of Forbidden Door 2026, which will reportedly begin at 7 PM ET.<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p>TNA presumably made the aforementioned adjustment to avoid direct competition with the All Elite Wrestling PPV and to maximize Slammiversary 2026 viewership.<\/p>\n<h2>Announcements for AEW Double or Nothing 2026<\/h2>\n<p>Before AEW heads to San Jose, California, for this year&#8217;s iteration of Forbidden Door in June, the promotion will be rolling into the Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York, later this month for the 2026 edition of Double or Nothing. So far, only two matches have officially been confirmed for the pay-per-view. The first of these will be the long-anticipated blow-off match between Don Callis Family members Konosuke Takeshita and Kazuchika Okada over the latter&#8217;s International Championship.<\/p>\n<p>The second confirmed bout will witness Adam Copeland and Christian Cage staking their partnership for a shot at the World Tag Team Titles currently held by FTR as they challenge Dax and Cash in an &#8220;I Quit&#8221; match.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"image\"><noscript><\/noscript><img class=\"lazy-img\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-img=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg?w=190 190w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg?w=720 720w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg?w=1045 1045w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg?w=1460 1460w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg?w=1600 1600w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg 1920w\" alt=\"Announcements for Double or Nothing 2026- Source: allelitewrestling.com\" data-img-low=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2026\/05\/eef1f-17782040316562-1920.jpg?w=640\" bad-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,&lt;svg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%201920%201080%22&gt;&lt;\/svg&gt;\"\/><figcaption>Announcements for Double or Nothing 2026- Source: allelitewrestling.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Furthermore, this past Wednesday on Dynamite, Ricochet and The Demand issued a challenge to Chris Jericho to find some partners and face them in a Stadium Stampede match on May 24.
