At AEW Forbidden Door, Mercedes Mone submitted Maya World to win the 2026 Owen Hart Foundation Women's Cup, becoming the tournament's first back-to-back champion. Mone's victory earns her a shot at the AEW Women’s World Title at All In in London’s Wembley Stadium. AEW opened the Countdown show with Mick Foley and Jeff Jarrett delivering testimonials about Owen Hart as the tournament built toward the final. Maya World received strong notices for her performance and carried significant momentum as a young finalist, but Mone finished the match with a tapout. After the match, Athena delivered an angry on-camera reaction and signaled she is coming for Maya World. AEW promoted Mone toward the Wembley title picture while the tournament continued to be framed as a serious honor for Owen Hart's legacy.
