Raise Your Fist

AEW Collision live from Detroit kicked off with the AEW debut of Chris Sabin and Alex Shelly, the Motor City Machine Guns. 

They said there was no place they’d rather be than debuting in Detroit, where the best wrestle. They said they were “All Elite” and that was that. 

Trios Championship

The first match of the night was the brand-new, less than 24 hours old Trios Champions, The Demand, defending against The Rascalz. Early in the match, Ricochet hit an impressive dive over the ring post and onto two of the Rascalz on the floor. The Rascalz took over from there, hitting dives on all three champions as the show went to a commercial break. 

Upon return, the action swung back and forth between the six men as the Rascalz kept providing answers and counters to The Demand’s offense. The Demand hit a triple-team maneuver on Wentz and nearly picked up the win. The Rascalz went on a run, nearly stealing the titles after a backslide by Xavier. The Gates of Agony caught Xavier and hit him with Open the Gates for the pinfall victory. 

After the match, The Conglomeration was interviewed backstage, and all three revealed that they had entered their names into the Continental Cup (which still has not been explained at all). Cassidy, O’Reilly, and Strong said they were doing the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge live later tonight on Collision. Tony Schiavone said that details about the Continental Cup would be revealed later tonight. 

 

Continental Cup

After a break, details were revealed about the Continental Challenge Cup. Moxley would be in it and would have to win to retain the title. This was designed to be similar to the FA Cup, beginning with a Round of 16, and culminating at All In London. Nigel McGuinness announced he was inspired and he would be putting his name in for the tournament. 

Ciampa vs. Comoroto

The next match saw Tommaso Ciampa taking on Nick Comoroto, with Ciampa still selling the brutality of his match against Chris Jericho at Redemption. This was a squash with Ciampa winning with the running knee strike in just over one minute. 

Backstage, Hangman Adam Page was interrupted by Brody King, who thanked him for helping out last night on Dynamite. Bandido entered and thanked Hangman as well. Page said he didn’t know what he wanted to do with himself yet, but proposed they challenge for the Trios titles in Mexico next week. Bandido proposed their team be called “El Bueno, El Malo, y El Feo or “The Good, The Bad, & the Ugly”. Brody King asked which one is the ugly one, and the other two smirked and left. 

Athena, Starkz, Diamanté vs. Brawling Birds & Hazuki

The next match featured ROH Women’s Champion Athena and her Minions in Training, Billie Starkz and Diamanté, taking on The Brawling Birds and Hazuki. Early in the match, the action spilled out of the ring and onto the ramp, where Billie Starkz took a nasty-looking spill onto her back to the floor. After a commercial, all women were back in the ring, and Hazuki was taking it to the Minions. Diamanté hit a Chaos Theory Suplex on Windsor, but Hazuki attempted a pin on Diamanté, nearly picking up the win. The Bralwing Birds picked Hazuki up and threw her into Diamanté in the corner as she hit a John Woo dropkick.

Hazuki and Athena went at it, and the announcers said they’d love to see the two of them square off for the ROH Women’s title. Ultimately, The Brawling Birds hit Two Birds One Stone on Diamanté for the win. After the match, Divine Dominion attacked the Brawling Birds while Athena and her Minions attacked Hazuki. 

The Demand and Lethal Twist cut a backstage promo accepting Hangman & Brodido’s challenge. Jay Lethal said that he was going to crush Komander’s dreams of wrestling next week at Grand Slam Mexico. 

 

ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

Next, Orange Cassidy, Kyle O’Reilly, and Roderick Strong did the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge on the stage. Rhino and Insane Clown Posse came out to dump the ice water on them to a huge ovation. The trio took their ice buckets like champs as the crowd chanted “Rebel”. This was so weird but heartwarming as well.
