AEW Continental Championship Eliminator Match: Death Riders’ Jon Moxley (c) def. Anthony Bowens
We kicked off Collision in style, as Tony Schiavone said, with the AEW Continental Champion making his way to the ring. As Mox entered through the crowd, we heard from Renee Paquette, who reported on HOOK trying to bring out the “killer instinct” in Bowens – and who better to pull out that grit from Bowens than Mox? According to Paquette, Moxley said that if there is grit in Bowens, Mox will find it. And as Bowens made his entrance, he yelled into the camera, “You want a killer, HOOK? You’ve got one!”
This match would be contested under Continental rules, meaning a 20-minute time limit, no interference under the threat of being fired from AEW, and no one at ringside. At the bell, Mox and Bowens circled each other, with Moxley pie-facing Bowens twice, then flipping him off, which lit a fire under Bowens! He laid it in against Mox, yelling into the camera, “You see that, HOOK?” Mox ducked a chop in the corner, but Bowens kept up the offense, firing away with elbows to the back of the head and fists to the jaw! Mox looked dazed, but perhaps he was lulling Bowens in, as he fired back with several punches to Bowens’ head then a chop across the chest.
Mox threw Bowens into the ropes, but Bowens floated over the top and took the Continental Champion to the mat, then tossed him to the outside. When the champ came back into the ring, Bowens remained relentless, locking Mox in a front chancery. Moxley countered with a wristlock, but Bowens escaped and rolled the champ up for a two-count. Mox’s response to that wrestling prowess? Backing Bowens into the corner and biting him on the forehead, of course!
Mox then mounted Bowens for multiple punches, but before he could get to 10, Bowens reversed, laying in 10 (or more) punches of his own! When referee Bryce Remsburg pulled Bowens down, Bowens just went right back up for more punches as Mox collapsed and rolled to the outside! Bowens gave chase, but Mox was ready for him, hitting him across the windpipe and throwing him over the ring barricade, as the two men fought in the crowd! Bowens stood triumphant as we went to break!
Back from commercial, we were back in the ring, where Mox had gained the upper hand in part by running Bowens into the ring post. Mox focused his attack on the left arm and shoulder with a series of submissions before both men got to their feet and traded blows in the middle of the ring. Bowens dazed Mox with a combination of strikes to the throat, chest and head, as we reached the halfway point of the time limit in this match.
Bowens yelled for Mox to bring it, as they once again exchanged punches and forearms. Mox hit several shots in a row before Bowens countered with a pump kick to the head and a chop. Bowens took Mox to the top for a superplex, but both men were feeling the pain on that one, and Bowens was unable to attempt a pin. Instead, Remsburg started to count to 10 until Bowens and Mox slowly got to their feet. Bowens charged Mox, but the champ hit the challenger with a sneaky cutter! Mox went for the double-underhook, but Bowens escaped, throwing Mox into the corner and kicking Mox in the back, then hitting a draping DDT for a two-count!
Bowens connected with a couple more kicks to Mox after the kickout, but a leapfrog attempt for a potential Fame-asser let to a rear choke by Mox that he transitioned into an arm bar, but Bowens fought off the pain and got to the ropes, which infuriated the champion! Moxley took Bowens to the outside and went for a piledriver, but the challenger reversed into a back-body drop. Bowens then grabbed a chair and swung it at Mox against the ringpost, but Mox ducked out of the way, then evaded again when Bowens tried to hit him with the chair by the ring steps! Mox jackknifed Bowens for a two-count back in the ring, then the challenger hit two Mollywhops! He wanted one more, which he hit, but when Bowens went for the pin, Mox snatched his neck for a bulldog choke. Bowens got to his feet, but Mox still had the hold clenched in. Bowens tried to escape, but all that led to was Moxley positioning Bowens for the Death Rider and the win!
Will Ospreay Attacks Jon Moxley – and Raises the Stakes for Dynasty!
Just seconds after Moxley’s win, The Aerial Assassin appeared out of nowhere and leveled the Continental Champion with a Hidden Blade! Ospreay climbed atop Mox and laid in several punches before going outside and grabbing one of the steel chairs. But as he was preparing to take out Mox for an extended time, the Death Riders came out and saved Moxley!
Ospreay grabbed the mic and said that this in fact isn’t personal – then yelled for Mox to not go anywhere as the Death Riders started to leave. Ospreay reminded Moxley that he was forgetting something: the Continental Championship! But Ospreay also reminded Mox that usually when the Death Riders wrapped a chair around someone’s neck, Moxley had Claudio do it. But when the Death Riders took Ospreay out in August, he couldn’t help but notice it was Mox who pulled the trigger.
Ospreay told Mox he will be seeing him at AEW Dynasty on Sunday, April 12, but how about they make a little change in the match? The one thing that Ospreay likes most about the Continental Championship is that when it’s on the line, there’s no one allowed at ringside and no interference. It would just be him and Mox for 20 minutes – and Ospreay can do a lot of bloody damage in 20 minutes. So Ospreay challenged Mox to put the Continental Title on the line for their match at Dynasty!
The Don Callis Family Fights for Kyle Fletcher
Backstage, we heard from AEW International Champion Kazuchika Okada, Andrade El Ídolo and Mark Davis. Okada told Davis that the tag match that he and Andrade had later tonight against The Rascalz was an opportunity to get revenge for the injury that Fletcher sustained in his match against The Rascalz with Davis – because Fletcher is Okada’s best friend, and he cares about The ProtoStar. Unlike Takeshita. And Davis has a better partner than Takeshita in Andrade! Okada said that Andrade is a future world champion, but tonight, he fights for Fletcher, and Okada will be watching closely.
AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions Divine Dominion (“Megasus” Megan Bayne and “Colossal” Lena Kross) def. Kristara & Ava Lawless
Bayne and Kristara started this match off in the center of the ring, with Bayne quickly grabbing Kristara and slamming her to the mat before taking her down again with a shoulder tackle. Bayne dragged Kristara to the corner and continued to beat down her opponent, tossing her back to the opposite corner with a huge belly-to-belly suplex. Kristara tagged in Lawless, while Kross tagged in for the tag champs, as Bayne and Kross smashed their opponents into one another, then crushed them in opposite corners and finally took both down with huge lariats!
Kristara rolled to the outside, as Kross and Bayne double-teamed Lawless. They looked to end things with Divine Intervention, but Kristara tried to stop them – in vain. Bayne and Kross took her out with a big boot/German suplex combo, then flattened Lawless with the Divine Intervention for the win!
Moxley Responds to Ospreay’s Ambush and Challenge
Backstage, Jon Moxley said that he wasn’t surprised by Will Ospreay’s behavior lately. However, he is surprised Ospreay challenged him for the Continental Championship, because it’s like Will said – in that situation, it’s just the two of them. They go down a dark alley, and only one of them comes out. Ospreay wouldn’t go into a match like that short of 100%, right? Unless Ospreay does think he’s 100%? Or he wants Mox to think he’s 100%? That’s a hell of a bluff.
Mox is all about letting delusional people be delusional. They find out whatever they need to find out in due time. With the Continental Championship on the line, expect no mercy, Will. Mox doesn’t have to beat Will Ospreay. Ospreay is gonna beat himself.
The Hurt Syndicate is Here!
Backstage, we were treated to an appearance by all three members of The Hurt Syndicate! MVP said not to adjust your TV sets, they are in fact here – and the Almighty Bobby Lashley has returned, cleared and ready to rock. Moreover, The Hurt Syndicate are looking for some new talent. They’re looking to add to their ranks. After all, they’re back in business, and business is about to pick up. They’re going to do what they do better than anyone: Hurt people.
TBS Championship Open Challenge: Willow Nightingale (c) def. Hikaru Shida
Willow said on last night’s Dynamite that she wanted to face one of the very best, and that’s just who answered her challenge, as three-time former AEW Women’s World Champion Hikaru Shida made her return to AEW! The fans were clearly thrilled to see her, as Nightingale was ready for a fight herself!
Willow and Shida shook hands on the bell, and it was time for a good one! Willow backed Shida into the ropes and gave a clean break. The two went through a feeling-out process, exchanging counters, suplexes, and a cartwheel from Willow for good measure! Shida signaled that she wanted a test of strength, but she was unable to take down Nightingale with a shoulder tackle, but Willow was able to floor Shida with one of her own! Shida kept up the offense, though, and after rebounding off of the ropes, she was able to knock Willow down!
Shida mounted Willow in the corner, but Nightingale slipped under, punishing Shida with lariats in the corner. Shida escaped and answered with a big running strike in the corner, then another knee to the back of Willow’s head for a one-count. After Nightingale kicked out, Shida locked in a series of submissions, first wrenching at the champ’s chin, then wrapping her legs around Nightingale’s midsection, rolling her around for a couple of two-counts. Just moments later, however, Willow nailed Shida with the Pounce, sending the former AEW Women’s World Champion to the outside! Willow gave chase, hitting a cannonball from the apron as we went to commercial!
Back from the break, Willow had Shida tied up in a submission maneuver, but the champ had to break the hold when Shida rolled through for a pin attempt. The two women battled back and forth to see who might suplex the other, but that devolved into a trading of big elbow strikes and fists! Shida tried to take Willow down by coming off the ropes, but Nightingale chopped her down – only for Shida to level Willow with a knee! Both women were down as referee Aubrey Edwards started to count to 10!
Willow charged Shida against the ropes, but Shida evaded and sent Willow onto the apron. Nightingale went to pick Shida up onto her shoulders, but the former world champion fought back and kicked Willow in the head, sending her crashing to the floor, as Shida grabbed a chair! She set it up for some added elevation and crushed Willow right between the eyes with a flying knee! Shida propped Willow up on the guardrail and hammered her with blows, then threw the champ back into the ring and climbed to the top rope and nailed Willow with a Meteora for a two-count!
Shida picked Willow up, looking for a suplex, but Nightingale blocked it, taking out Shida with a spinebuster, then looking for the Babe With the Powerbomb – but Willow’s shoulder gave out! She rolled Shida up for a two-count, then Shida countered for a near-fall of her own. Willow then hit Shida with a Death Valley Driver for another two-count, but Shida kicked out!
The champ climbed the turnbuckles for a moonsault, but nobody was home! Shida hit a huge knee for a two-count! Shida hit another running knee for another two-count, but the champ kept digging deep! Willow ducked a spinning kick and a backfist, then countered another strike from Shida into a backslide for the three count! Willow wins and retains!
After the match, Willow celebrated on the ring ropes, as Shida grabbed her kendo stick and looked as if she was about to crack Nightingale across the back! But Shida hesitated, and Willow turned around, giving Shida a thumbs-up and mouthing “Good job” before making her way to the back, as Shida showed her frustration in the ring.
AEW World Tag Team Champions FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) with Stokely def. Mo Jabai & London Lightning
Security flanked the ring for this tag match thanks to the actions of Cope and Cage on last night’s Dynamite, as the two had been hunting FTR with steel chairs, taking out the Don Callis Family’s Trent Beretta and Rocky Romero when they found the Family members in FTR’s locker room.
Harwood and Lightning started this match, with Dax backing Lightning into the corner and lightly slapping him across the face before knocking Lightning to the mat with a shoulder tackle for a one-count. Harwood followed that up with another shoulder tackle and a huge lariat, then took Lightning back into the corner for more punishment. Lightning briefly reversed the momentum, taking Harwood to Lightning and Jabai’s corner and tagging in Jabai.
As soon as Jabai tagged in, however, FTR double-teamed him in their corner, as Wheeler tagged in for the tag champs. Jabai fought off FTR when they tried for some double-team offense, then tagged in Lightning, who was ready to clear house, but FTR were playing opossum. When Lightning went to pick up Harwood, Dax leapt into motion, setting Lightning up for the Shatter Machine and the three count!
Just moments later, Christian Cage’s music hit, and Cage came out to the top of the ramp with a chair in hand. Cope’s music was next, as he joined Cage with a chair of his own in hand. Cope and Cage took out the security and slid into the ring, but FTR were ready, putting the boots to C&C. Dax looked to set up Cage for a spiked piledriver, but Cage took him out with a low blow, and Cope hit an Impaler on Wheeler, who was alone in the ring! Cope put Wheeler in position for a conchairto, which Cage looked to deliver, but Stokely slid in and pulled the chair out of Cage’s hand! Two members of security tried to calm Cope and Cage down (with fisticuffs), but they took out both security guards! Cage nailed one of the guards with a conchairto to drive home just how ruthless he is feeling, as FTR and Stoke watched in fear on the ramp!
Jamie Hayter Wants Thekla at Dynasty!
Lexy Nair was backstage with Brawling Birds and Mina Shirakawa after their victory last night on Dynamite. Alex Windsor said that when they called themselves the Brawling Birds, they meant it. When they brawl, they brawl. And when they brawl, they have each other’s backs. Jamie Hayter said that she’s proud of Windsor for being the NJPW Strong Women’s Champion, but that Hayter has been thinking about how she’s a former AEW Women’s World Champion. And Thekla, for someone who’s so small, has an awfully big mouth. Hayter has beaten her once, and she’ll do it again. Dynasty.
Shirakawa chimed in to say, “Don’t beat her. Beat the PISS out of her!”
“The Psycho Killer” Tommaso Ciampa def. Juice Robinson of the Bang Bang Gang
We started off with a collar-and-elbow tie-up, transitioning into a series of wristlocks, counters and headlocks (along with Ciampa pulling Juice’s hair for good measure, while accusing Robinson of pulling Ciampa’s hair on his bald head!). Juice ran Ciampa off the ropes and took him down with a shoulder tackle followed by a Manhattan drop and a Russian leg sweep into a senton, as Juice was feeling it early, yelling toward the announce desk, “You like that, Schiavone?”
That momentary lapse was all Ciampa needed, as he fired back on Robinson, only for Juice to cut him off, slam him head-first into the turnbuckle, lift Ciampa up for an atomic drop, then bash his head into a different turnbuckle multiple times for good measure! Robinson then climbed the ropes to punch Ciampa 10 times in the head and followed that up with a bite to Ciampa’s forehead as the former TNT Champion rolled to the outside to catch his breath. Ciampa charged up onto the apron, but Robinson met him with a punch to the head – until Ciampa swept Juice’s legs out from under him, sending him crashing into the apron, then biting Robinson’s nose!
Ciampa tossed Juice back into the ring and stomped his head, then lifted Robinson to his feet and punched him across the temple then chopped him across the chest. Robinson responded by running the ropes and leveling Ciampa with a lariat! Ciampa rolled to the outside and Juice flew over the top rope to take him out! But Ciampa spit into Juice’s eyes and ran him into the ring barricade, then into the announce desk as we went to commercial.
Back from the break, both men were perched on the apron, where they traded chops before Ciampa obliterated Robinson with an Air Raid Crash! Referee Rick Knox started to count to 10, but Juice just beat the count. But when he got back into the ring, Ciampa chomped on his finger, then chopped him across the chest with Robinson on his knees. That seemed to fire Juice up, though, as he rose to his feet and cracked Ciampa with multiple straight jabs, then a headbutt that floored Ciampa. Juice went to run off the ropes, but Ciampa caught him, only for Robinson to follow up with a spinebuster on Ciampa! Juice alternated jabs and chops as he backed Ciampa into the corner, then slammed the former TNT Champion to the mat for a two-count.
Robinson went to suplex Ciampa, but Ciampa got the knee up and reversed, then hit Robinson with a knee to the jaw against the ropes. The two men spilled to the outside, where Juice crashed into Ciampa with a cannonball against the ringside barricade! Robinson brought Ciampa back into the ring and hit another cannonball on Ciampa in the corner, then hit him with a jackhammer for a two-count!
Juice flew off the top turnbuckle, but Ciampa dodged and looked for his running knee strike, which Robinson evaded. Robinson looked for a powerbomb, but Ciampa escaped and hit Juice with a sneaky low blow and the Willow’s Bell then went for a pin, but Robinson kicked out at two! Ciampa hoisted Juice up onto the top turnbuckle looking for an Avalanche Psycho Driller, but Robinson fought him off for a towering powerbomb and a two-count of his own! Ciampa hit a low dropkick on Juice’s knee, then the two exchanged chops and blows. Juice went for The Juice is Loose, but Ciampa escaped, then hit two running knees for the pinfall victory!
Isiah Kassidy is Ready to Swim With the Sharks
Backstage, Kassidy said that every time people mention Private Party, they talk about change. Change, change, change. And this time, Mox knows what he and the Death Riders did. They took out Kassidy’s boy, Marq Quen, and Isiah doesn’t know when he’ll be back. But he’s not going to back down. Mox said it’s time for Kassidy to swim with the sharks, right? Well, what Moxley doesn’t know is that Zay has been drowning his whole life. He’s learned to breathe down there. And he’s going to eat, because he’s starving for an opportunity.
Darby Allin Gets Interrupted by Brody King and “Jungle” Jack Perry
We heard from Darby backstage after last night’s Dynamite, where he plainly stated that he has to beat Andrade, since doing so would earn him a shot at the AEW World Championship, per MJF’s agreement with the Don Callis Family. Allin also shared that last night, Kenny Omega told him that he would honor that stipulation should Omega beat MJF for the title next Sunday at Dynasty.
Enter King and Perry, who had helped chase off the Don Callis Family when they assaulted Allin last night on Dynamite. King reminded Allin that they had taken years off of each other’s lives. Darby put King in a coffin. Perry said flatly that Allin set him on fire. King has Allin’s name tattooed on a headstone because he wished death upon Darby.
He set Perry on fire, Perry said again.
But King also remembers that Allin was there for him and Bandido when they needed the support against the Death Riders.
Allin said they all hate the Don Callis Family, and Darby knows the three of them can coexist for one night. Dynamite. King and Perry agreed – although Perry said one more time that Darby set him on fire.
Don Callis Family’s Andrade El Ídolo & Mark Davis def. The Rascalz (Dezmond Xavier and Zachary Wentz)
The Don Callis Family was out first, as Callis and Andrade appeared to discuss something, with the latter gesturing toward his waist, making it clear that his focus remains on the AEW World Championship. Then, we sounded the alarm, as The Rascalz made their way to the ring, while Callis joined the announce desk.
Andrade and Davis jumped The Rascalz before their entrance music even turned off, with Davis beating on Wentz and Andrade taking out Xavier as referee Aubrey Edwards tried to get control of the situation to no avail. Davis and Andrade threw both Rascalz into the ring, where they recovered enough to keep the Family on the outside with dropkicks and stereo dives! Wentz and Xavier threw Davis into the ring, and the bell finally rang!
The Rascalz combined for some innovative tandem offense on Davis before Wentz tagged Xavier back in. When Dezmond went to bounce off the ropes, Andrade sneaked in a kick to the back, giving Davis a window to level Xavier and tag in Andrade. Andrade knocked Wentz off the apron, but Xavier was able to daze Andrade just enough to send him to the outside. When Xavier went for a dive onto Andrade, though, the latter was waiting with a massive punch to the jaw! Andrade then went over to socialize with one of his darling admirers before we went to commercial.
Back from the break, Xavier countered a lower-body submission attempt by Andrade into a two-count, but El Ídolo immediately clamped down on the Rascal with a reverse chinlock. Xavier got to his feet and escaped, floating over the top of Andrade, only for Andrade to catch him square on the chin with a pump kick! Andrade went to charge into Xavier in the corner, but Xavier got to his feet long enough to counter Andrade with a thrust kick of his own! Both Andrade and Xavier tagged their respective partners, as Wentz lit Davis up with strikes and kicks, backing him up against the rope. Davis tried to shrug it off, but Wentz caught him with a somersault knee, then repeated kicks to the chin and a tornillo off the middle rope for a two-count!
Davis recovered long enough to lift Wentz up for a gutwrench piledriver, but Wentz reversed. Davis leveled Wentz and went for a two-count, but Xavier broke up the pin with a double stomp to the back of Davis! The Rascalz double-teamed Davis in the corner, knocking him to the mat. But when The Rascalz went for Hot Fire Flame, Davis got the knees up, and Andrade cleared Xavier from the ring. Davis crushed Wentz with Close Your Eyes and Count to Nothing, then Andrade finished him with The DM for the pinfall victory!
After the match, Callus entered the ring to celebrate with Davis and Andrade. As they left the ring, AEW International Champion Kazuchika Okada’s music hit! He was flanked by Trent Beretta and Rocky Romero, who continued the beatdown on The Rascalz for even more payback on behalf of Kyle Fletcher, as Okada tried to prove that he’s a better friend to Fletcher than Takeshita. Okada went to hit Xavier with The Rainmaker, but Myron Reed fought off all three members of the Don Callis Family to save his fellow Rascal, taking them out with a huge Flame On over the top rope!
8-Man Tornado Tag Match: Orange Cassidy & Roderick Strong of The Conglomeration & AEW World Trios Champions Místico & “The Jet” Kevin Knight def. Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta of the Death Riders & The Dogs’ David Finlay & Clark Connors
The Dogs entered first, taking out a member of production on their way through the backstage area. Castagnoli and Yuta joined them shortly thereafter after a bit of a hype up moment with the Death Riders. Next out were the Conglomeration’s OC and Strong, who stayed at the top of the ramp for the entrance of Místico and Knight to the dulcet tones of Místico’s entrance music.
The Dogs and Death Riders were strategizing, and apparently their plan was to jump the opposing team before the bell, which they did! In the ring, Claudio took the fight to Místico, clawing at his mask, while Finlay continued to assault Strong on the outside! Castagnoli lifted Místico up for a press slam, but the Trios Champion escaped, punishing Castagnoli with a big chop to the chest then taking him down with a wristlock from the top rope! Místico capitalized with a dive onto Castagnoli on the outside, but unfortunately for him, he dived right into The Dogs, who looked to set him up for a dive from Yuta. But OC stopped Yuta, sending him to the outside, allowing The Jet to take out the opposition with a dive of his own!
In the ring, Knight took out Yuta with a dropkick, as he and OC compared their pockets (or, in The Jet’s case, lack thereof). The Dogs cleared Cassidy and Knight from the ring and double-teamed Strong, before Místico came off the top with a massive missile dropkick to take out Connors and Finlay! While Místico was distracted, though, Yuta and Castagnoli took the opportunity to double-team Místico, until Knight made his way to the top and took out both Death Riders with a big crossbody! Knight then assisted Místico into the air for a tijeras, followed by a basement dropkick on Yuta and a splash by Knight for a two-count! On the outside, The Conglomeration threw The Dogs into the ring barricade, while Knight and Místico continued to beat down Yuta in the corner as we went to commercial!
Back from the break, the tides had turned, as The Dogs and Death Riders were putting the boots to Cassidy in the corner. In quick succession, Connors, Finlay, Yuta and Castagnoli all charged OC, but when they went for round two, Cassidy was able to fend them off – right up until Connors and Finlay took him out with a high-low combo! The Dogs looked to set Cassidy up for The Full Clip, but OC reversed into a Stundog Millionaire on Finlay as Strong took out Cassidy on the top rope!
Strong lifted OC up as a battering ram and used him to perfection against both Finlay and Connors, culminating in a pendulum DDT by OC on Connors and a backbreaker by Strong on Finlay! Those four men spilled to the outside as Knight, Místico and Castagnoli tangled in the ring. Místico took Claudio out with two more tijeras takeovers, sending Castagnoli to the outside, and Místico gave chase, only for Yuta to try to save his fellow Death Rider and take a punch to the jaw for his troubles!
Connors and Strong exchanged blows in the ring, where OC looked to hit Connors with the Beach Break, before they went out to the floor. Knight sneaked up on Castagnoli with a huge springboard forearm, but The Jet found himself alone against all four members of the opposing team, leading to a two-count on a pinfall attempt by Yuta before Knight’s teammates made the save!
Místico, Strong and Cassidy locked Yuta, Finlay and Connors in Strong Holds, until Castagnoli kicked Strong enough to make him release the hold. Roddy and Claudio exchanged blows, only for Cassidy to come flying in for an Orange Punch that took out the Death Rider! Strong and Cassidy used The Dogs’ own momentum against them, sending them to the outside, then hit dives to the outside, brawling with Connors and Finlay all the way to the back! Back in the ring, Yuta hit Knight with the Busaiku Knee, but Místico made the save!
Castagnoli pummeled Místico with European uppercuts in the corner, but when he tossed Místico into the opposite corner, Místico countered with a big boot and a hurricanrana for a two-count! Both men were clearly exhausted, but they got to their feet. Místico looked to spin into La Mística, but Claudio blocked, as Yuta recovered for some double-team offense on Místico, leading to a giant swing punctuated by a dropkick by Wheeler! Yuta went for a pin but only got a two-count! Somehow, Místico kicked out!
Místico ducked under a clothesline from Castagnoli and finally locked in La Mística! As he did, Knight climbed to the top and leaped over Místico and Claudio to hit Yuta with the UFO Splash for the pinfall victory for his team! “Speedball” Mike Bailey came out to celebrate the victory with his fellow AEW World Trios Champions! That was it for this special Thursday Night Collision!
