The focus following an incredible Forbidden Door 2 PPV has rightly centred on the incredible IWGP United States title match between Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay.
The pair met at Wrestle Kingdom earlier this year when it was Omega who took the win, but Ospreay has bounced back brilliantly as he defeated the Canadian in his own back yard in a near 40-minute classic.
Aided by Don Callis, Ospreay received some help in reclaiming his title, but it would be unfair to put all the spotlight on Callis in what was a brutal encounter featuring two performers at the top of their game.
The bout had the audience on the edge of their seats throughout but was it the best match of 2023?
As it stands currently on Cagematch.net, Omega vs. Ospreay from Forbidden Door 2 is the third match of the year according to votes from Cagematch subscribers with 9.51.
Their initial meeting in January is ranked first with a score of 9.78 with Bryan Danielson’s Iron Man match with MJF from Revolution in second place with 9.57.
