Saturday night’s alright for Collidin’!
Commentary welcomes us to the show, running down the lineup for tonight before we get a message from Death Riders after Dynamite on Wednesday. Jon Moxley addresses being unable to beat Kyle O’Reilly in their previous encounters, before stating he’s not the man he was six months ago. Logic and strategy should dictate that he should stay away from O’Reilly because there’s no doubt Kyle has his number.
This Continental Championship is a good bait to slay the dragons coming to his door. He’s going to continue surviving the way he knows how, by finding a way. Mox walks off before Claudio Castagnoli addresses facing Brody King in the Owen Hart Tournament: Brody brings the bark, but he’d better bring the bite when they face off.
PAC says there are no special favorites, and that it’s us against the world. Daniel Garcia agrees and we end with Marina Shafir telling their foes to bring it. With that, Collision rolls on.
Back at ringside, Kyle O’Reilly makes his entrance for our opening contest. I’m not sure why they’re not using the full Conglomeration theme other than to make sure each man gets a good pop for their music, with the loudest of these coming for Mark Briscoe. The trio enters the ring before Shane Taylor Promotions makes their way out next.
AEW World Trios Championship Eliminator Match: The Conglomeration vs. Shane Taylor Promotions
We start off with Bravo and Briscoe, who go at each other until Bravo takes control. Briscoe manages to turn it around long enough for a tag to O’Reilly. Moriarty tags in as well, and they exchange holds until Kyle gets Lee down for a nearfall. Lee turns things around as he hits the ropes for a sunset flip, but Kyle goes for an armbar on the counter.
Lee breaks free but O’Reilly quickly cinches in an ankle lock. Moriarty manages to break free, but is sent to the corner where Kyle lands some mounted punches before tagging in Briscoe.
Mark lands some shots of his own before tagging in Cassidy…who lands ONE good shot for good measure. Tag made to Shawn Dean, who eggs Cassidy on to put his hands in his pockets. Orange obliges and takes Dean down with a dropkick, keeping Shawn off his game. Bravo comes running in for an assist, but to no avail.
Dean and Bravo each get sent into the turnbuckle, before Moriarty pulls Cassidy off the apron. O’Reilly and Briscoe have it out with him over this, as the Infantry take out Cassidy and Shane Taylor lands a big leg drop with the ref distracted, keeping him down as we go to ad break.
-AD BREAK (ON HBO MAX)-
Back in the ring, Dean lays into Cassidy in the corner before making a tag to Bravo. Cassidy struggles as he is pulled away from his corner…finally kicking Bravo away, but Moriarty gets a tag and keeps him from doing the same! Abdominal stretch by Lee, with an assist from the rest of STP until the ref catches them. Cassidy manages to break free when Moriarty is forced to let go of the ropes, and Kyle gets the tag.
He sends Lee to the corner for a knee, and sends the ROH Pure Champion to the mat for a kick and the cover. He gets a nearfall and immediately goes for an armbar before STP break it up. Dean with the tag now, and he takes O’Reilly down hard for a two count. Bravo comes in for a double team but Kyle takes them down with a knee as Briscoe gets back on the apron…and he gets the hot tag!
He unloads on the Infantry before setting up Bravo for a Jay Driller. Carlie breaks free and sends him to the ropes, where STP keep him at bay before Cassidy stops it with a dive. Briscoe gets a chair and looks for a big dive of his own before Taylor stops him…only to take an Orange Punch from Cassidy! This allows Kyle to a knee and Briscoe to land the dive he wanted, bringing Dean back into the ring for a Froggy Bow and the Jay Driller to pick up the win.
Winners via pinfall: The Conglomeration
The champs celebrate as commentary talks up Briscoe facing Tommaso Ciampa this Wednesday during the 3-hour special, as well as matches for later tonight and beyond. We see that Samoa Joe will face Will Ospreay to kick off the men’s Owen Hart Tournament before hearing from Ospreay after Dynamite. He talks about the surprise of seeing Joe across from him in the brackets here, before addressing the struggles he’s been having the past few weeks since his return.
He’s upset he couldn’t beat Jon Moxley, but even more upset hes not the guy AEW could depend on once upon a time. With that said, what could go wrong with Mox in his corner? Will respects Joe, but no one is stopping him from winning the Owen. He finds it poetic that the man who took away his old life is giving him a second chance to win the Owen Hart Tournament. With that, we go to commercial.
-Commercial Break-
Backstage, Kyle O’Reilly addresses Mox accepting the challenge for a Continental Title Eliminator match and after he submits Mox he’s going to put all his chips in and going double or nothing. Briscoe addresses facing Ciampa, and Cassidy gets Willow to address going for the Owen Hart Tournament this year. We then find out her TBS Title match is up next!
We head to ringside as Willow makes her entrance for that match, before we hear from her challenger Red Velvet. She’s the ROH Women’s World Television Champion and she addresses beating Willow in the past…and she’s gonna beat her for that TBS Championship right now!
With that, she makes her entrance to get this match underway!
AEW TBS Championship: Willow Nightingale defends against Red Velvet
The two go at it, with Willow taking the advantage at first before Velvet turns it around. Willow offers a handshake out of respect, and this is followed by another exchange before Red sends the champ to the corner. She drives her boot into the throat of Nightingale for extra damage, but Willow breaks free for a few shots of her own. She also blocks a sunset flip and picks up a nearfall. Fisherman buster by the champ gets her a two count as well, and she goes for a senton only for the challenger to roll out of the way. Low moonsault gets her a nearfall.
Willow starts to bring it back around, sending Velvet to the floor with a suplex as we go to ad break.
-AD BREAK (ON HBO MAX)-
Back from break, Willow sets up for a Death Valley Driver on the apron but Red breaks free. She gets sent to the floor instead as Nightingale looks for a cannonball senton…and lands on the floor as Velvet dodges it at the last second! The challenger rolls into the ring as the ref begins the count. Willow makes it back to the ring but is intercepted by Velvet for a nearfall. They trade strikes until Red lands a DDT.
Willow goes to the ropes but takes a double knee to the back. Bulldog by the challenger gets a two count. Willow fights back, looking for the Babe with the Powerbomb but Velvet breaks free, sending the champ back into the ropes…but Nightingale ends up sending her to the mat instead!
Once again trading strikes now, Willow sends the challenger to the canvas with a clothesline but she’s favoring her shoulder. The fight makes its way to the corner, with Velvet fighting off the champ to send her to the mat for the cover…but Willow narrowly gets her shoulder up.
Velvet hits the ropes, but so does Willow who lays her out with a pounce! She hoists the challenger up, landing the Babe with the Powerbomb for the win to retain.
Winner via pinfall and still TBS Champion: Willow Nightingale
The champ celebrates as we take a look at the women’s Owen Hart Tournament bracket where Nightingale faces Alex Windsor in the opening round at Double Or Nothing. We cut to Sammy Guevara calling out Darby Allin for a World Title match tonight, noting he’s beaten Darby four times and looks to make it a fifth win to become the new AEW World Champion.
Backstage, Sammy basically cuts the same promo as last night but adds that he will face MJF next week and shave his head bald…but at least he’ll give Max a nice fade. He tells Darby his time is up, and Sammy’s time is now. Hey, wait a minute…
We cut to a look at Samoa Joe and Jay Lethal’s history leading to tonight’s tag team match. In fact, that match is up next!
-Commercial Break-
Backstage, we hear from Darby Allin ahead of his sixth title defense. Darby says he asked everyone if MJF was there but realized that was a silly question, of course he’s not gonna be at Collision, he’s not a company guy.
They asked him why he’s here, this close to Double Or Nothing, but he loves the thought of being a fighting champion. He talks about facing Guevara tonight, before offering a shot to Mike Bailey for Wednesday if he retains. He walks off as we go to ringside…where we see Tommaso Ciampa and Mark Briscoe going at it! They brawl to ringside where Mark gets a chair before sending Ciampa into the ring.
He looks for a Jay Driller onto the chair, but Tommaso breaks free and hits a low blow on Briscoe. He grabs the chair and slams it against Briscoe’s back! He sends Mark to the corner before grabbing another chair, slamming it against Mark’s head.
He props the two chairs up before going back to the corner, only for the Conglomeration to run down for the save. Ciampa makes his escape through the crowd as Mark gets a microphone, calling Tommaso out to make their match anything goes, no disqualification for Wednesday!
Briscoe’s music hits as commentary talks up whether this gets made official for the 3-hour special. They also talk about Swerve Strickland making an appearance this Wednesday, taking a look at the men’s Owen Hart Tournament bracket where Strickland will face Bandido, the man he attacked at Supercard of Honor last night.
We get some hype for Will Ospreay and Samoa Joe at Double Or Nothing, as well as a reminder of All In London on August 30, before heading back to ringside for our next match. Out first are Samoa Joe and Anthony Bowens of The Opps. Out next are Lee Johnson and Jay Lethal representing The Lethal Twist, and we get this match underway!
The Opps vs. The Lethal Twist
We start off with Bowens and Lethal, but not for long as Jay calls for his old ROH rival to get in the ring. Joe obliges with a tag, only for Lethal to catch him with a right hand. Jay has a bit of fun with this, but takes a few shots from Joe as a result. He takes Lethal to the ropes, driving his boot to the face in the corner. Lethal leaves the ring for a breather as Anthony tags in, but so too does Johnson when Jay gets back in.
They trade offense until Bowens takes Lee down with a side headlock takeover, but Johnson fights back forcing Bowens to the corner. He runs down Anthony and this riles the Five-Tool Player up, who turns things around with some shots in the corner until he sends Johnson to the outside. Bowens goes after him but is nearly blindsided by Lethal, only to send Jay into the apron as Joe approves.
He eventually pulls Anthony off, reminding him to stay focused as Bowens sends Johnson back in the ring for a tag to Joe. Lethal comes in for an assist, and a distraction from Christian allows Johnson to hang up Joe on the ropes before Jay takes him out with a missile dropkick before we go to an ad break.
-AD BREAK (ON HBO MAX)-
Back from break, Lethal Twist is still in control as Johnson tags back in for a double-team on Joe. He gets a cover but Joe kicks out at two. Lethal tags back in before trading shots with Joe, who catches him with a powerslam off the ropes. Both men are down before making tags as appropriate, with Bowens taking down Lethal and Johnson.
