Bryan Danielson, Mariah May advance in AEW Owen Hart Foundation tournaments

Bryan Danielson and Mariah May have made it to the next round.

The two won their qualifying matches at Sunday’s Forbidden Door to reach the semifinals of the men’s and women’s Owen Hart Foundation tournaments respectively. May was the first to advance during the Forbidden Door Zero Hour pre-show after catching Saraya in a pin. On the main card, Bryan Danielson managed to defeat NJPW’s Shingo Takagi, submitting him with an armbar to make it to the next round.

May will now move on to face Hikaru Shida in the semifinals of the women’s tournament. The winner of that match will face the winner between Willow Nightingale and Kris Statlander in the finals.

In the men’s tournament, Danielson will now immediately move on to face PAC at AEW Dynamite Beach Break on July 3. Jay White, meanwhile, will face the winner of a match between Jeff Jarrett and a “wild card” of The Elite’s choosing.

The winners of both tournaments will be decided on the July 10 edition of Dynamite, which will take place at the Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The tournament winners will also receive world championship matches that will be held at All In on August 25.
