** Tony Schiavone, Nigel McGuinness and Matt Menard were on commentary at the Brady Music Centre in Cincinnati, Ohio. This edition of Collision was recorded on Thursday January 16th.

** After opening promos, we are straight into the Texas Death Match between Hangman Page and Christopher Daniels. The blood started to flow early after Page raked Daniels’ forehead with barbed wire.

Page got the lion’s share of the match. After a brief comeback in which Daniels put Page through a barbed wire-laden table, Page hit the Tombstone on a chair, the Deadeye on the chair, and a Buckshot Lariat. This left Daniels unable to answer the 10-count. After the bell, Page hit Daniels with his own Angel’s Wings move.

Fightful reported earlier this week that this may have been Daniels’ final match.

** Tony Schiavone interviewed Toni Storm. She talked up her title shot in her home country of Australia at Grand Slam. She declared that she would introduce herself to Mariah May next at Dynamite in Jacksonville next week.

** Backstage, MVP challenged Private Party to a Tag Title match against the Hurt Syndicate’s Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin next week. This would later be confirmed.

** The Undisputed Kingdom defeated Shane Taylor Promotions, with Kyle O’Reilly pinning Shawn Dean. After the match, Shane Taylor attacked the winners and argued with Menard on commentary. Daniel Garcia came out to help Undisputed Kingdom clear the ring of the heels.

** Backstage, Will Ospreay said that he and Kenny Omega need to have a chat on the next episode of Dynamite.

** Lance Archer and Brian Cage defeated Top Flight. Cage pinned Dante Martin after a double chokeslam. Action Andretti then emerged to create a distraction allowing Lio Rush to attack Top Flight from behind.

** Chris Jericho talked about his history with Jon Moxley. He said that Moxley needs to trust him so that they could win the 12-man tag main event.

** Lexi Nair is with Daniel Garcia and Matt Menard. The Undisputed Kingdom appear and challenge for a six-man tag next Saturday. Garcia and Menard accept, confirming that “new dad” Angelo Parker will join their team.

** Max Caster came out to loud boos. Bowens then emerged to call Caster “a lying piece of shit.” Billy Gunn came out to make peace, but Caster accused him of riding their coattails. Caster told Bowens to choose between him or Billy. Bowens made to scissor Caster, but flipped him off. Caster said they’re done, and Bowens & Gunn scissored.

** Swerve Strickland cut a promo on Ricochet ahead of their match on February 5th.

** Kazuchika Okada defeated Tomohiro Ishii via pinfall after a low blow while the referee was distracted.

** Dustin Rhodes beat Adam Priest in a squash.

** Julia Hart defeated Harley Cameron via submission with The Heartless. Throughout, Cameron was selling the effects of being misted by Hart in the Casino Gauntlet match on Dynamite.

** There was a recap of Samoa Joe’s return on Dynamite. He will be facing Nick Wayne on next Wednesday’s show.

** Footage was shown of Chris Jericho and The Learning Tree after attacking PowerHouse Hobbs with a baseball bat, weakening him before the main event.

** Rated FTR, The Outrunners, and Powerhouse Hobbs defeated the team of Death Riders and The Learning Tree in a chaotic 12-man main event that ended with Hobbs pinning Bryan Keith following a big spinebuster.

The bout initially started as a six-on-five contest without Hobbs. Cope, Dax, and Cash eventually brawled to the back alongside Moxley and his crew, leaving Magnum and Floyd to fend for themselves against Jericho’s team.

At this point, Powerhouse Hobbs made his entrance amid “Meat” chants from the crowd as he squared off with Big Bill.

While the Outrunners kept Jericho occupied, Hobbs took advantage of the confusion to finish Keith, who had attempted to use the ROH title belt as a weapon. The victorious faces celebrated in the ring as the show went off the air.
