AEW Collision Results

With less than 24 hours to AEW All In: London, AEW was back in Glasgow for Collision on TNT and HBO Max! It was the final stop before Wembley Stadium, and some opponents didn’t have to wait until Sunday to throw down thanks to a few big tag matches! However, the night started and ended with a champion standing tall.


After Mercedes Moné beat Glasgow’s own Isla Dawn, AEW Women’s World Champion Willow Nightingale came out looking for revenge on Moné following her attack on Nightingale’s hand days ago on Dynamite. While Moné was able to escape unscathed, Nightingale promised that she’ll still be AEW Women’s World Champion and will still be smiling after Sunday. 


In the main event, Konosuke Takeshita took everything The Beast Mortos threw at him, but still managed to win the match with a Raging Fire, as AEW International Champion “The Protostar” Kyle Fletcher watched from the commentary desk. Fletcher had enough of being a spectator and laid out Takeshita with the title belt and then dropped him on it with a brainbuster to send a strong message before Fletcher defends against Takeshita and Kazuchika Okada at All In!


Plus, AEW World Trios Champions “Hangman” Adam Page and Brodido teamed with Bang Bang Gang to beat The Demand and The Lethal Twist. However, that didn’t stop the hostilities, and it turned into a chaotic brawl with The Dogs, Death Riders and The Conglomeration all joining the fracas before these teams and a wild card squad meet with the AEW World Trios Titles on the line tomorrow in Trios Roulette Royale! And TBS Champion Maya World challenged CMLL World Women’s Champion Persephone to face her at The Buy In!


It was a wild night to close out the week in Glasgow before All In: London tomorrow! Here’s everything that went down on Collision!


AEW Collision Results From Glasgow



"The CEO" Mercedes Moné def. Isla Dawn


Collision opened with the challenger for the AEW Women's World Championship tomorrow at All In: London, Mercedes Moné, who was coming off a violent and brutal attack on champion Willow Nightingale's hand just days earlier on Dynamite here in Glasgow. But speaking of Glasgow, out came the hometown favorite, Isla Dawn, stepping up to challenge Moné tonight. Dawn would pick up one of the biggest wins of her career, if not the biggest, if she could knock off Moné less than 24 hours before Moné's own championship match at All In: London.


When the bell rang, the crowd continued showing their support for Dawn, who soaked it all in. Moné talked trash and pushed Dawn into the corner but gave a clean break. Moné got in Dawn's face and tried to berate her, but Dawn avoided a couple of strikes and hit a kick combination. When she went for a running boot, though, Moné escaped and cracked Dawn with a backstabber. Moné punished Dawn against the ropes, choking her before dragging her to the corner and laying in vicious forearms, then returned to the middle of the ring for a falling armbreaker. Moné stayed on Dawn's arm with a nasty kick in the corner, tripped her to the mat, and connected with a falling meteora. Moné pulled her back out and covered for a two-count, but Dawn wasn't ready to go yet.


Moné locked in a variation of a hammerlock, and when Dawn tried to get back to her feet, Moné simply grabbed her hair and yanked her back down, mockingly kicking at her face. Still, Dawn kept feeding off her hometown crowd's support, finally getting to her feet and hitting a kitchen sink knee to create a moment of hesitation. Moné charged back in, but Dawn met her with a flurry of strikes, a clothesline, and another boot to take Moné down. Dawn sent Moné into the corner and followed with a running knee to the chin, then folded her in half with a teardrop suplex for a cover, but Moné kicked out just before three.


Moné escaped Dawn's grasp and caught an incoming kick to deliver one of her own, staggering Dawn before sending her into the corner with a sunset flip, then charging across the ring with a meteora. Moné brought Dawn to the middle of the ring for the Moné Maker and locked in the Statement Maker for the tap-out victory, much to the chagrin of the Glasgow crowd.


As Moné celebrated, Willow Nightingale's music hit, and despite her bandaged left hand, the AEW Women's World Champion marched down to the ring. Moné came out to meet her, but Nightingale kicked the Owen Hart Cup belt out of her hand and chased her into the ring, forcing Moné to retreat out through the crowd. Nightingale then demanded a microphone and addressed Moné directly, telling her she could try to attack her, try to take this moment away from her and the people of Glasgow, but injured or not, she was still there and still talking. Nightingale promised there would be many more good moments to come, vowing she'd be damned if she let Moné take her championship on Sunday, and mocked Moné's obsession with attacking her smile, declaring once again that she is the AEW Women's World Champion and she is still smiling. As Nightingale led the crowd in clapping, Moné was beside herself, begging everyone to cheer for Willow while they still can.


Jon Moxley Won’t Be Shaking Against Nigel McGuinness in Wembley


With Marina Shafir by his side, Moxley had a few things to say while addressing tomorrow's AEW Continental Challenge Cup Final against Nigel McGuinness at All In: London.


He started singing, “They’ll be blue birds over, the wide Cliffs of Dover.”  Tomorrow, Nigel McGuinness comes home with lightning in a bottle, and wondering what he plans to do with it. He said he's watched McGuinness endure this tournament through sheer will, dogged determination, veteran toughness and craft, and now McGuinness finds himself in the finals at Wembley Stadium, making every dream he ever had as a little English child come true.


Moxley acknowledged that McGuinness's big moment didn't come the way he thought it would, adding that it never does, but said that this is the kind of thing they make movies about, and that he'd watch that kind of happy movie. But he warned that the real world is scary enough. There's a fantasy world some people might be living in where McGuinness wins at Wembley Stadium, he said, and then there's the real world, where he won't hesitate to rip McGuinness's leg off in front of his brothers, his sister, his grandmother, and everyone he loves, and feed it to his family dog. He said not to take that as disrespect, because he knows exactly who McGuinness is, better than anyone, and exactly what he's capable of, and how quickly he can make that three count come and go.


Moxley said McGuinness will have to get him before he gets him, and that he thinks about pressure differently than most. He called himself the defending Continental Champion, but said he isn't so sure that's entirely true, quoting the idea that a man is not truly free until he has nothing to prove, nothing to lose, nothing to gain, and nothing to hide. He left the audience to wonder which of the two of them that description truly fits, with this game going into the fourth quarter, third period, overtime, sudden death, the clock running down, and one final warning: make sure your hand isn't shaking, because his sure won't be.


Trios Match: Jericho, "Speedball" Mike Bailey & Komander def. Tommaso Ciampa, Mark Davis & Nick Wayne


All six men involved in this trios match will also collide tomorrow in the Men's Casino Gauntlet at All In: London, where the winner earns a guaranteed AEW World Championship contract. Speaking of the AEW World Title, Jericho is the only former AEW World Champion in this trios match, and Glasgow gave him a champion's welcome, serenading him and the rest of his team with "Judas" before the bout got underway. Don Callis, representing Mark Davis, joined the commentary desk sporting a fresh tan from a trip to Croatia and showing it off.


Jericho egged on the crowd's chants as both Ciampa and Wayne tried to shut them down. Revisiting their rivalry from the previous month, Jericho and Ciampa started the match, though at the bell, Ciampa bailed to the outside to raise Don Callis' hand, a gesture that did not sit well with the Glasgow crowd. Jericho pointed at Ciampa, but Ciampa broke away from their first two tie-ups. Jericho moved Ciampa to the corner, but Nick Wayne pulled Jericho down from behind. Bailey grabbed Wayne, then Komander and Davis entered the ring, and all six men squared off before breaking apart to the outside.


Bailey handled Wayne, but Ciampa came over to help out, only for Jericho to come from behind and nail Ciampa, sending him into the commentary desk. Ciampa fought back and sent Jericho into the ring, but Jericho dove out with a baseball slide, taking out Ciampa on the opposite side of the ring. Bailey hit a moonsault from the second rope onto Davis, then held Wayne as Komander flew over the top rope with a tope con hilo.


Unfortunately for Jericho's team, that advantage didn't last. Jericho wound up isolated in the wrong corner, facing a constant attack from Ciampa, Davis and Wayne. Jericho broke free of Wayne with chops, but Wayne answered with a kick to the chest and a Death Valley Driver. That opened a window for Jericho to make the tag to Bailey. Wayne charged at Bailey, who sent him into the top turnbuckle and kicked the buckle pad back into his face. Bailey went to the top, jumped over a rushing Wayne, and rolled to the corner. When Wayne charged again, Bailey stopped him with a big boot, then did the same to Ciampa. Bailey got on the second rope and took down both Wayne and Ciampa with a dropkick, booted Davis to the floor, and hit a vicious trifecta of kicks on Wayne before a standing shooting star press nearly got the win, but Davis broke it up.


Ciampa stomped Bailey to the corner, and Komander paired off with Ciampa; Bailey ended up with Wayne, and Jericho with Davis. Komander, Jericho and Bailey all hit ten punches in their respective corners, then all three connected with hurricanranas from the top rope, pausing to celebrate together. Bailey put Wayne down with a Falcon Arrow and scaled to the top rope for a shooting star press that nearly won the match, but Wayne kicked out in time.


Bailey picked Wayne back up and shot him into the ropes as the crowd chanted for Speedball, and Bailey avoided Wayne with a back handspring elbow. Wayne used his own shiftiness to avoid Bailey and hit a flying back elbow of his own, immediately pouncing on Bailey to rain down punches before throwing him over the top rope to the floor, where Ciampa got in some cheap shots. Ciampa threw Bailey back in, and Wayne covered him for a two-count.


Wayne rolled into Bailey into the corner and tagged in Ciampa, who put Bailey's leg over the second rope, stomped it, then stomped it again on the mat, following with a right hand to Bailey's forehead as Wayne pulled up a chair at ringside and put his feet up next to Callis. Bailey chopped his way back, but Ciampa cut it off with a big boot. Ciampa tagged in Davis, who hit a splash on Bailey and brazenly pinned him with his knees on Bailey's chest, allowing Bailey to kick out. Bailey fought to escape Davis with everything he had, and it seemed like he might break away after a kick sent him to the corner, but Ciampa and Wayne pulled him back before he could make the tag. The two of them then went after Bailey at the same time, sparking an argument and a shoving match, with Davis stepping in between them to get their heads back in the match before it boiled over into anything more.


Wayne missed a charge on Bailey in the corner, and Bailey escaped Davis' grasp, rolling under Ciampa to make the tag to Komander. Komander sent Ciampa over the top rope with a low bridge and scaled the ropes, but before he could do anything, Davis rushed in, only for Komander to meet him with a boot to the face. Komander went back up top and walked the tightrope across the ring to grab Wayne's arm on the opposite side, using it to rebound off the adjacent ropes and send Wayne across the ring with an innovative arm drag that had Glasgow buzzing! Davis missed a charge at Komander in the corner, so Komander sprang back to the top rope and took Davis down with a hurricanrana. Ciampa tried to get to Komander, but Komander ducked a shot and hit a DDT.


Ciampa tried again for Komander, but Komander ducked a punch, booted Ciampa in the gut, and hit another DDT, then sent Ciampa to the apron with a rebound dropkick. Bailey did the same to Wayne, and Jericho, whose move they were all mimicking, used it to take down Davis. A flying Jericho then took Davis down off the top rope. Bailey laid out Wayne with a moonsault, and Komander once again walked the tightrope across the ring, delivering a Spaceman to Ciampa on the floor! Callis was throwing a tantrum at the commentary desk, tossing papers everywhere! But Komander wasn't done yet, splashing Ciampa from the top rope for a nearfall!


Jericho and Ciampa traded strikes until Ciampa chopped Jericho into the waiting arms of Wayne, who held him for Ciampa. But when Ciampa went for a rolling elbow, Jericho ducked, and Ciampa laid out Wayne instead. If that happens tomorrow in the Men's Casino Gauntlet, no problem, but tonight, those two men are partners! Ciampa turned right into a Judas Effect from Jericho, whom Davis immediately laid out. Komander then came off the top rope, using his legs to catapult the much bigger Davis to the floor.


Wayne and Bailey went back at it in the ring, both going for kicks at the same time, but Bailey's was stronger and knocked Wayne down. Bailey hit a thrust kick to Wayne's jaw, then went into his roundhouse rotation for Time Adventure, but Wayne came out of the corner to stop him with a big boot of his own. Wayne lifted Bailey for the Prodigy Plex, but Bailey turned it into an inside cradle for a near-fall. Wayne charged at Bailey, who quickly shifted his body into a Green Tea Plunge, hooking Wayne deep for the three count and the victory for his team! Bailey takes some extra momentum with him into tomorrow's Men's Casino Gauntlet!


The Brawling Birds and Divine Dominion are Ready to Clash At All In!


We took a look at the rivalry between two teams undefeated in tag team action, finally facing each other with the AEW Women’s World Tag Team Championship on the line! The Birds want the belts and are ready to brawl, but Megan Bayne and Lena Kross don’t plan on letting the belts go anywhere!


Trios Match: The Dogs (Gabe Kidd, Clark Connors and David Finlay) def. Ronan King, Judas Grey & Landon Riley


Gabe Kidd is back with The Dogs, putting them at full strength after participating in the 2026 G1 Climax in New Japan Pro-Wrestling, with this marking his first match in an AEW ring since losing the AEW World Trios Championship at AEW Dynasty in April. The Dogs will be one of seven teams vying for those Trios titles tomorrow in the Trios Roulette Royale.


The Dogs attacked at the bell, with Kidd and Connors taking King and Grey to the outside. In the ring, Finlay took it to Riley in the corner and tossed him with a release vertical suplex. King got up on the apron, so Finlay booted him back down into the clutches of Kidd, who spiked King on the floor with a brainbuster. Kidd got up and yelled about being stuck in New Japan for months, clearly with a lot of pent-up anger to get out.


Grey attacked Kidd from behind, though it had no effect, and Grey quickly realized the mistake he'd made. Kidd slapped him across the face, and Connors ran through Grey with a flying shoulder block. Finlay put Grey on his shoulders and threw him into the ring post with reckless abandon.


The Dogs returned to the ring, and Riley found himself surrounded. Riley tried to fire up and threw shots at all three of the Dogs, but it did nothing. Kidd laid him out with a massive forearm across the head, before Finlay and Kidd hit a flapjack on Riley, and Connors followed with a spear. It was already over at that point, but Kidd added a piledriver, and Finlay finally and mercifully finished things off with an Overkill, covering Riley for the pin. The Dogs continued to attack after the bell, celebrating their dominant victory out on the floor, and looking every bit ready for tomorrow's Trios Roulette Royale.


The Multi-Year History of Willow Nightingale and Mercedes Moné


Ever since Willow Nightingale won the AEW Women’s World Title and was set to face Moné at All In: London, their rivalry went to new heights. Moné hates everything about Nightingale, especially because she’s been there for everything Moné has done in AEW, including beating her for the TBS Title at the turn of the year. Tomorrow isn’t about the TBS Title. It’s about the one championship Moné hasn’t managed to win and Nightingale’s chance to remain on top after an amazing comeback.


Nigel McGuinness Will Be Haunted Forever If He Loses to Jon Moxley


With a lifetime achievement that not even he thought possible still alive, McGuinness left some final words ahead of tomorrow's AEW Continental Challenge Cup Final against Jon Moxley at All In: London.

McGuinness sang “It’s coming home, it’s coming home, Nigel is coming home.” And that a dream once only imaginable to a young boy is now a smile on his face tonight, headed to Wembley Stadium. He asked how many people can say that, but acknowledged that he also realizes this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity could fail at the final hurdle. He said that would haunt him forever.


McGuinness told Moxley that he knows he's the favorite, and that in the clutch, Moxley always comes out on top. But to even get to Wembley Stadium, McGuinness said he had to battle against the odds, and every time, he was able to steal it. So he told Moxley to be aware that stealing is his strategy, because he's coming for him and for the Continental Championship. 


“I’m gonna steal it away from you. The Artful Dodger is leaving with the gold! Jon, it’s coming home.”


12-Man Tag Match: Bang Bang Gang (Jay White, Austin Gunn and Colten Gunn) & AEW World Trios Champions "Hangman" Adam Page & Brodido (ROH World Champion Bandido and Brody King) def. The Demand (Ricochet, Toa Liona and Bishop Kaun) & ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions The Lethal Twist (Jay Lethal, Blake Christian and Lee Johnson)


Three of the four teams in this 12-man tag match will be part of tomorrow's Trios Roulette Royale. But tonight, it's the AEW World Trios Champions “Hangman” Page and Brodido teaming with one of the teams they'll face tomorrow, Bang Bang Gang, to take on The Demand and the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions The Lethal Twist. There was a bit of back and forth between Hangman and Jay White when the champions entered the ring, clearly looking ahead to tomorrow's title match.


The Demand and The Lethal Twist attacked to jump-start the match, and everyone spilled to the outside except Bandido and Johnson. In the ring, the two traded reversals, and Bandido stopped Johnson with a finger pistol. Johnson stopped, then charged at Bandido, who caught him in the gut, followed by a knee to the forehead and a thrust kick that dropped Johnson. Bandido brought Johnson to the corner and tagged Hangman, who then immediately was tagged by White, not sure if that was in fun or maybe some intentional miscommunication.


White tagged in Colten Gunn, who dropped down to set up Johnson to get walloped by Colten's picturesque dropkick. Must run in the family. The crowd broke out in a Gunns Up chant, and Austin tagged in, but Christian was unable to track him because of how fast Austin ran the ropes. He tripped up Christian and jumped over him with a neck snap to send Christian to the outside. Johnson, outnumbered by Bang Bang Gang three to one, walked right into a DDT from White. Colten covered, but Johnson kicked out. Johnson reversed the whip to the ropes, and Lethal kneed Austin in the back. Austin turned around and nailed Lethal, but that allowed Johnson to clip him from behind.


Christian tagged in, then tagged Lethal immediately, and they sent Austin to the ropes. Austin reversed it and tried to kick Christian, who caught the boot. Lethal spun Austin around, and Christian hit an enzuigiri into a cutter from Lethal. Lethal stopped to celebrate with a strut.


Austin came back with a chop and tried to get away from Lethal, who whipped him into the corner, where Austin threw his body at all his opponents and knocked most of them off the apron. He ran back across the ring and dove to make a tag to King. King laid out Lethal and took everybody out from the opposite corner. King whipped Lethal to the corner, and then Bandido and Page sent King into Lethal with a big splash. King threw Lethal out to Bandido, who hit a one-armed gorilla press slam on Lethal, followed by King assisting Hangman on a splash, in a nasty display of power and brutality. Christian and Ricochet hit stereo moonsaults onto White and Bandido on the floor, which left King all alone in the ring to get stomped by The Demand and The Lethal Twist.


King wound up isolated for an extended period, struggling to get anywhere near his teammates to make a tag. Ricochet tagged in Christian, who came over the top with a senton splash, and Johnson did the same, Christian following with one of his own. Then Liona hit the biggest of the four, but King was able to kick out. Christian brought King down to the mat with a rear chinlock as Ricochet demanded Tony Schiavone tell the people at home that they're winning right now. Liona came back in and deadlifted King, but King was able to break free with back elbows. Liona pushed King away and tried to charge back at him, but King threw a desperation lariat, sending both men crashing to the mat.


White couldn't believe what he saw on the apron! Hangman tagged in and started hitting anybody who moved from the opposition, sending Lethal, then Johnson to the floor, followed by a clothesline from the apron that sent Ricochet down as well. He threw Christian back with a fallaway slam and sprang back to his feet for a cross body over the top to take out Johnson, Lethal and Ricochet. Page got right back on the apron and went to the top rope, but White instructed him to go back down, so Page moonsaulted onto Ricochet and Lethal on the floor instead. The crowd loved it, and Page was feeling it as he got back in the ring.


Back inside, Page avoided a Lethal Injection and stopped a charging Lethal with a boot from the apron. Page lined up Lethal for a Buckshot Lariat as White made a blind tag. Lethal ducked under the lariat attempt only to be caught by White for a Blade Runner. However, Lethal was able to swing around and avoid it, as Page flipped over the opposite side to destroy Lethal with a Buckshot Lariat just as White got out of the way in time. White gave Page a thumbs up and lifted Lethal into a Blade Runner to get the three count for his team!


Page and White exchanged words after the match, and Page didn't seem thrilled with White, although all six teammates briefly raised each other's hands. That didn't last long, though, as The Dogs hit the ring, followed by the Death Riders, and then The Conglomeration! Now six of the seven teams in the Trios Roulette Royale are brawling with each other, with only the wild card team remaining to be revealed in tomorrow’s match. How is anyone going to stop these men from brawling? They might do it all the way to Wembley Stadium!


Wembley Stadium is Ready for AEW World Champion Kenny Omega vs. Will Ospreay!


We saw what Wembley Stadium looked like less than 24 hours before AEW takes it over for All In: London! The atmosphere will be unlike anything ever seen when Ospreay tries to become the first British-born wrestler to win a world championship on UK soil!


Artist of Stardom Champion Skye Blue of Triangle of Madness def. Harley Cameron


This was Cameron's first match back in over a month. She was last seen losing a TBS Championship match to then-champion Hikaru Shida, and she returned to the ring tonight against the always dangerous Skye Blue, one third of the Artist of Stardom Champions Triangle of Madness. The crowd was thrilled to see Cameron back in an AEW ring, but Blue quickly took her down with a hair pull. Cameron didn't like that and fired back with some knee lifts, but Blue stopped her again with a big boot. She mounted Cameron for punches and mocked the audience, then choked Cameron over the second rope with her leg until the referee broke it up.


Blue sent Cameron into the ropes, and Cameron came back with a clothesline to take Blue down. Cameron hit a splash in the corner and mounted Blue for punches of her own. Cameron came off the ropes looking for a bulldog, and Blue blocked it. Cameron tried to switch into a single-leg crab, but Blue got out of it with kicks up. Blue and Cameron each avoided each other's kicks until Cameron sent Blue to the outside with a knee lift. She jumped through the ropes with a pair of boots to knock Blue into the commentary desk, then picked up Blue and slammed her off the apron, and did so again on the other side of the ring.


But when Cameron charged Blue for another attack, Blue moved, and Cameron hit the steel steps with a sickening thwack. Blue had now taken control of the match. Back in the ring, Cameron tried to fight back, but Blue kept cutting her off. Finally, Cameron used a couple of evasive maneuvers to hit Blue with a kick to the side of the head, followed by a lungblower. She came out of the corner with a Shining Wizard that connected, but Blue once again kicked out.


Cameron hit another splash in the corner and put Blue on the top turnbuckle. She went up to meet her, but Blue fought back, and the two jockeyed for position in dangerous territory. Blue dropped down and trapped Cameron's head in the turnbuckle before hitting a thrust kick, then hit a superplex on Cameron out of the corner, but only got a two-count. Blue came running across looking for a knee to Cameron's face, but Cameron caught it. The two exchanged strikes in the middle of the ring until Cameron beat Blue down to the mat. Blue answered with a thrust kick, and Cameron avoided a headbutt, but Blue came back with another thrust kick, so Cameron hit a kick of her own.


Cameron was mounting the comeback and bounced off the ropes, where she took Blue down with a crucifix bomb, but Blue came back with a running knee that was on target, and Cameron was laid out. Both women were down. Julia Hart came out to the ring and tried to pass one of the Artist of Stardom Titles to Blue, but Cameron cut it off and wrestled it away. The referee took the title belt away from Cameron, so he didn't see Hart hand Blue one of the other titles and blast Cameron with it. Blue covered Cameron for the three count, and Hart got in the ring to celebrate with Blue.


TBS Champion Maya World Challenges Persephone at the Buy In!


Earlier today, Maya World stood inside Wembley Stadium and said that even surrounded by the iconic venue, she couldn't stop thinking about Wednesday's Dynamite. She called out CMLL World Women’s Champion Persephone for embarrassing her by hitting her across the face with her own TBS Championship on World’s own network, and said now she wants to beat her for free. She challenged Persephone to fight her tomorrow night on the Buy-In, so everybody can see that it's still her world.


TNT Champion "The Jet" Kevin Knight Confronted by Steven Borden


Don Callis stood on the entrance ramp with members of the Don Callis Family and introduced the next in a long line of superior genetic athletes, TNT Champion "The Jet" Kevin Knight. 


Callis took the microphone in the ring and said that even while Darby Allin was being wheeled out last week, he had something important to tell him. Callis said that from his four hundred-foot super yacht, he watched Knight barbecue Darby Allin, and that in that one act of violence, Knight had grown into the man Callis always imagined he could become. Knight said Darby had been too busy looking up at Knight, and that for the past few weeks, Darby had been asking just how far Knight was willing to take it, and now everyone had witnessed that Knight is willing to go all the way.


Knight told the crowd not to feel sympathy for Darby, reminding everyone how Darby took him out with an exploding backpack at Forbidden Door and how Darby busted Brian Cage's head open with an exploding skateboard. He said Darby brought all of this on himself. Knight then called out Darby directly, reminding him that he had sent him to the hospital three times and that things wouldn't be any different at Wembley. He noted their Falls Count Anywhere match for the TNT Championship technically has to start in Wembley, and asked where Darby was hiding.


A hooded figure attacked Knight from behind, but the Don Callis Family quickly swarmed him. They pulled the hood off to reveal Steven Borden, the son of the legendary Sting and a close friend of Darby Allin. Brian Cage and Jake Doyle held Borden as Knight lined him up with the TNT Title, but Callis stepped in to stop it, introducing the crowd to Borden and telling his guys to let him go because he just wanted to talk.


Callis told Borden that everybody says he has the athletic ability to be as good as his father, but that Callis thinks he could be even better. However, that will never happen if Borden keeps listening to Darby Allin. Callis rattled off Borden's college football statistics from his days at the University of Kentucky and his combine numbers, saying he's been scouting him and that the Don Callis Family isn't just a family, it's a star factory that breeds champions out of men like him. Callis said he believed Borden had really come out to join the family, because there was no way he came out just to get his ass kicked. Callis said it was awfully brave of Steven Borden to get in there with the Don Callis Family, and while he agreed Borden is a phenomenal young athlete, he's no match for four men.


Borden said no, he came out to tell both Callis and Knight that Darby will be there Sunday, and not just be there, but take the TNT Title right off Knight's waist. Knight responded by attacking Borden and cracked the TNT Championship over his head!


As Knight and the rest of the Don Callis Family exited up the ramp, AEW International Champion "The Protostar" Kyle Fletcher made his way out, scheduled to be on commentary for the main event between Konosuke Takeshita and The Beast Mortos. On his way to the ring, Fletcher passed Knight and briefly looked at the TNT Champion and fellow Don Callis Family member before walking to the ring by himself.


Konosuke Takeshita def. LFI's The Beast Mortos


Takeshita wants to take some momentum into tomorrow's AEW International Championship 3-Way against champion Kyle Fletcher and Kazuchika Okada, but that won’t be easy against Beast Mortos.

At the bell, even Fletcher recognized what a great matchup this was on commentary. Mortos and Takeshita traded shoulder tackles to no avail, then hit the ropes and tried again with clotheslines. Both men made big contact, but neither would go down until Takeshita finally took Mortos down with a flying clothesline. He worked over Mortos in the corner with punches to the body, then mounted him for punches to the head.


Takeshita sent Mortos to the opposite corner, but Mortos came back with a boot to the face and a bulldog to send Takeshita face-first into the mat. A massive chop from Mortos echoed throughout the arena. Takeshita went to the ropes, but Mortos hit a shoulder block that knocked him to the floor, then followed with one of the biggest tornillos you'll ever see to take Takeshita out on the floor! Mortos threw Takeshita back in the ring and hit a nasty backbreaker, then popped him up for a Samoan drop, but Takeshita was able to kick out at two before rolling out of the ring.


Mortos kept control, but Takeshita refused to stay down. Mortos missed a charge in the corner, and Takeshita sent him into the ring post. Takeshita pointed it out to Fletcher on commentary, and Fletcher yelled back that he needed to focus on his match. Takeshita threw some right hands at Mortos, but Mortos stopped him with a headbutt. Mortos charged at Takeshita, but Takeshita caught him and flipped him over the top rope all the way to the floor. What a display from Takeshita! He got right in Fletcher's face!


Takeshita threw Mortos back in the ring and hit a running knee in the corner, then an exploder suplex, but only got a two-count. Takeshita threw forearms at Mortos, but Mortos stopped him with a headbutt, so Takeshita came back with another forearm and a massive Blue Thunder Bomb. Mortos kicked out again! Takeshita couldn't believe it, but he put his focus back on Mortos, who tried to find whatever strength was left to stay in the match. Takeshita gestured to the crowd that he was going for the Power Drive Knee, but Mortos moved, and Takeshita ran into the corner.


Mortos turned it around into a spear, went for another, but Takeshita got his knee up, and both men were laid out. Takeshita sent Mortos to the corner, but Mortos came back with a series of kicks and strikes to leave Takeshita stumbling, then took him down with a crucifix bomb and called for the end. Mortos popped up to Takeshita, but Takeshita rolled it over into a crucifix bomb of his own, picked Mortos up, and hit Raging Fire for the pinfall to win the main event!


Fletcher took off his headset on commentary as Takeshita celebrated in the ring, so he never saw Fletcher come from behind with the AEW International Championship to lay him out. Fletcher took off his jacket and rained down punches on Takeshita, then stood over him and picked him up by the hair. Takeshita threw some weak shots to get away, but couldn't, and Fletcher dumped Takeshita on the AEW International Championship with a sheer drop brainbuster! Collision came to a close with Fletcher posing over Takeshita and berating him before leaving the ring!
