CONTAINS SPOILERS


The final stop before AEW DYNASTY! AEW COLLISION & RAMPAGE were broadcast live from the Peoria Civic Center in Peoria, IL!


It’s Saturday night and you know what that means! Saturday night’s alright for fighting!


Tony Schiavone and Nigel McGuinness were the broadcast team for tonight’s event.


Trios Match!

TNT Champ Adam Copeland, ROH World Champ Mark Briscoe, & Eddie Kingston

vs.

Action Andretti & Top Flight—Dante & Darius Martin!


Briscoe and Action countered one another in the opening minutes of the match, but Briscoe leveled Action with a flying forearm. Copeland came in but Action cracked him with a back elbow. Darius and Dante used combos on Copeland. Adam Copeland scooped up Dante and grounded him with a running powerslam.


Kingston grabbed a tag from Copeland. Kingston clubbed Dante with a stiff lariat. Dante connected with a jumping knee strike. Darius and Mark tagged in for their respective teams. Darius drilled Copeland and Briscoe with a double DDT.


Briscoe sent Action and Darius flying with exploders. Both teams charged at one another, and they all had the same idea, colliding with clotheslines.


“Six people had the same idea,” said Nigel.


Briscoe planted Darius with the Jay Driller. Kingston clocked Action with the spinning back fist, and Copeland followed up with a spear to Action! Briscoe splashed Action with the froggy bow, and Kingston covered Action for the pin!


After the match, the arena lights went dark! The House of Black’s Malakai Black, Buddy Matthews and Brody King appeared on the screen. The House of Black said they’d eradicate Copeland, Briscoe, and Kingston at Dynasty tomorrow!


“Some ominous warnings from the House of Black,” said Tony Schiavone.


The Don Callis Family’s Powerhouse Hobbs (with Don Callis) vs. CJ Esparza!


Hobbs will be facing IWGP Heavyweight Champion Jon Moxley on Dynamite this Wednesday.


Powerhouse Hobbs bulldozed Esparza. Hobbs hit the World’s Most Dangerous Slam on the apron over and over.


“He’s gonna break this kid in two! Rack ‘em!” shouted Callis.


Hobbs put Esparza in the torture rack and quickly gained a dominant victory.


Callis: “I have something important to say. The Don Callis Family is the talk of professional wrestling. Everybody knows that I was directly responsible in 2017 for Kenny Omega winning the IWGP Heavyweight Title. Everybody knows the biggest match in the history of Japanese wrestling was Jericho vs. Omega at the Tokyo Dome in 2018. That match was signed, sealed and delivered by Don Callis. A match that set new course of success, and when they thanked me for the favor, I said one day I may come and ask you for a favor.


“I waited six years to cash that favor in. I cashed in all my chips and I’m happy to announce that the match on Dynamite between Jon Moxley and Powerhouse Hobbs will be for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. And one more time, the IWGP Championship will come home to the Don Callis Family!”


Chris Jericho was outside the arena with a message for FTW Champion HOOK!


Jericho said he wanted to apologize to Hook for pushing Taz on Dynamite. But Jericho was going to take Hook up on his offer. So, Jericho said he went to Tony Khan for a match for the FTW Championship at Dynasty and Tony Khan granted it.


“The learning tree is going to teach you one of the hardest lessons you’ll learn. You’ll learn what it’s like to lose one of the things you value the most when I take that FTW Championship from you,” said Jericho.


AEW World Trios Champions The Acclaimed—Anthony Bowens & Max Caster (with Daddy Ass)

vs.

ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions The Gunns—Austin & Colten Gunn (with “Switchblade” Jay White)!


Schiavone said that Tony Khan told him that if the Gunns walked out, they wouldn’t have a match tomorrow at Dynasty. The Acclaimed grabbed the Gunns and pulled them back into the ring!


Bowens blasted Colten with the Fame-Asser. Bowens cradled Colten for a pin, but Colten shoved Bowens off him, inadvertently knocking Bowens into Caster. Bowens smashed Colten over his knee and went for the cover, but Austin jumped in to break up the pin.

The Gunns smashed Bowens with 3:10 to Yuma! Caster jumped from the top with the Mic Drop on Austin. In all the commotion, Colten covered Caster for a pin, and with the assistance of some leverage from Jay White and White’s baseball bat, got the three-count!
