AEW COLLISION RESULTS (11/17/2023)

Tony Schiavone kicks off the show with an in-ring interview with TNT Champion Christian Cage, who comes out with Nick Wayne and Luchasaurs. Schiavone announces a four-way match on Collision featuring Penta, Komander, Brian Cage, and Trent Beretta, where the winner faces Christian for the TNT Title this evening on Rampage.

Christian takes the mic, then orders Schiavone to hold the mic, says Full Gear will be Sting’s last match ever, and claims Sting has been stealing a paycheck for the last 15 years. Christian says he is here for Darby Allin when he loses his father figure in Sting. Christian says Ric Flair will get a come to Jesus moment if he gets in his way and warns Adam Copeland to stay out of his way.

Christian says Copeland was coddled all his career while he had to scratch and claw his way to the top and asks Beth to let the kids watch because he will break her husband’s neck. To end the interview, Christian quoted LA Clipper star James Harden saying, he doesn’t work within a system, he is the system.

Backstage interview with AEW Tag Team Champions Big Bill & Ricky Starks. Starks said it’s not fair they can lose the belts tomorrow at Full Gear without being pinned, so Tony Khan allowed Starks to pick the match stipulation. Starks picked a Ladder Match because Big Bill is the tallest man in AEW.

Miro vs. Daniel Garcia

Miro toys with Garcia for a little bit before stomping him out in the corner. Garcia is trying to wrestle a technical match, but Miro uses his power to counter Garcia at every turn.

Winner via ref stoppage: Wardlow

The commentary team runs down tomorrow night’s Full Gear card.

Dax The Axe vs. RUSH w/ LFI

Ricky Starks comes out for commentary with Big Bill standing by. Starks calls him “Strokedaddy” because he’s the smartest man in AEW for getting the ladder match stip added to the pay-per-view match.

No Wheeler with Dax.

Rush and Dax chop away at each other until Dax hits a flying forearm, knocking RUSH to the floor. RUSH counters Dax with a backbody drop to the floor and continuously throws Dax into the ringside barricade. They exchange some more chops until Dax changes up with fists.

Starks loves it because the beating both men and giving each other will make it easier for him and Big Bill to retain the tag team titles tomorrow night at Full Gear. RUSH and Dax fight on the floor, but RUSH gets distracted by Starks, and pie faces him. RUSH is about to give Dax the Bull Horns, but Starks comes in and spears RUSH while Big Bill attacks Dax.

Tony Schiavone sitdown Interview with MJF

Schiavone asked MJF why is he defending the ROH tag titles by himself. MJF said he made a promise that the belts would be waiting for Adam Cole when he comes back from injury, which he says is his fault. MJF says Jay White is insecure and will beat him at Full Gear because “NO ONE IS ON THE LEVEL OF THE DEVIL.”

MJF went on a rant about the likelihood of all his accomplishments, calling them slim to none, but he likes those odds.
