Posted on 10/12/125 by Bob Magee
AEW Collision Homecoming on Saturday night wrapped up a
great week of the best wrestling action in a venue that has
seen many memorable AEW moments, Daily’s Place in
Jacksonville, Florida!
“Timeless” Toni Storm put her title aspirations aside for
the night to tag with her AEW WrestleDream opponent, AEW
Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander, along with Harley
Cameron, to handle their mutual problems with Triangle of
Madness. Josh Alexander defeated Kota Ibushi by countout
after Ibushi suffered a nasty fall, and the Don Callis
Family got even bigger when Mark Davis returned and went
right after Ibushi – but Kenny Omega made the save!
In the main event, the Top Gods beat the JetSpeed Babes
thanks to a huge assist by Penelope Ford, but when Megan
Bayne and FTR tried to inflict further damage, Cameron ran
them off to set up two tag team matchups for AEW Tailgate
Brawl next weekend! Plus, the Death Riders expressed their
frustration with Darby Allin, and we found out he’ll be
face-to-face with Jon Moxley this Wednesday on a special
three-hour AEW Dynamite and Collision, TayJay had a
triumphant return to the tag team ranks, and much more, all
part of AEW Collision Homecoming!
Here's everything that happened on AEW Collision for October
11, 2025, including your full results and match recaps.
We Hear From Everyone in Action Tonight!
We began the night with Triangle of Madness sending a
message to their opponents, “Timeless” Toni Storm, AEW
Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron.
They promised to ruin their lives, devour their souls, and
fill Collision with “Madness.”
After Cameron properly introduced her team, Statlander had a
vivid way of promising to leave with a part of the Triangle
of Madness on her foot. Storm backed up Statlander but then
grabbed a hold of the AEW Women’s World Championship on
Statlander’s shoulder and reminded her they have a date with
destiny at WrestleDream!
Big Bill and Bryan Keith said they’d help Max Caster and
Anthony Bowens get on the same page because tonight, they’re
both getting their skulls cracked.
Caster and Bowens, with all their plaques, couldn’t even get
through introducing themselves without arguing, which
continued until Caster stormed off as Bowens stewed. Nothing
was actually conveyed to Bill and Keith.
Big Stoke said the alliance between FTR and Penelope Ford
and Megan Bayne has paid off. Ford said, “These bad
bitches,” as Bayne finished, “are gonna make you bow down.”
“Top Gods, out.”
JetSpeed and Willow Nightingale (from inside a Jaguar’s
mouth) were also ready for their Mixed Trios Match with the
Top Gods. Bailey said it’s always, “Top Gods down, JetSpeed
Babes up!”
Josh Alexander of the Don Callis Family def. Kota Ibushi
Our opening contest featured “The Golden Star” Kota Ibushi
making both his Collision and Daily’s Place debut against
Josh Alexander of the Don Callis Family, looking to avenge
their recent attacks on his friend, Kenny Omega.
A feeling-out process between the two resulted in a couple
of stalemates until Ibushi leveled Alexander with a big
kick. Alexander regrouped on the outside with Callis, who
was surprisingly not in his typical spot on commentary. When
Ibushi was tied up with referee Bryce Remsberg, Alexander
attacked from behind to gain a brief advantage, although
Ibushi once again stopped him with a big dropkick. Ibushi
didn’t let Alexander rest, following him to the outside with
a plancha before taking some time to slap hands with the
crowd, who were so happy to see him.
Ibushi punished Alexander with a pair of big kicks, but
Alexander was ready and caught the third, sending it
crashing into the ring post before dropping Ibushi on his
head with a DDT. Back in the ring, Alexander stayed on the
left leg, although he also made sure to send Ibushi back
outside for some cheap shots from Callis.
As “I-BU-SHI!” chants rang out in Daily’s Place, Ibushi
finally fought back into the match with a powerslam. Instead
of trying to make a cover, he jumped onto the second rope,
where Alexander snatched him from behind, looking for an
electric chair drop, only for Ibushi to drop out of it to
hit a German suplex! Both men needed extra time to recover,
although Ibushi was up first and hit a combination of kicks
and strikes to lay out Alexander on the mat. As the crowd
rose once again, Ibushi hit a standing moonsault to gain a
two count.
Alexander escaped further damage by picking Ibushi’s leg for
an ankle lock, although it didn’t stay on long with Ibushi
sending Alexander to the corner. He fought back with an
elbow, followed by a spinning slam that Ibushi somehow
kicked out from after an awkward landing. Ibushi avoided
Alexander coming off the second rope and absolutely blasted
him with a kick to the side of the face, followed by a half-
and-half suplex. Ibushi sensed a chance to put away
Alexander with running knees to his head, and to his credit,
Alexander wouldn’t stay down for three.
The two wound up on the apron, where Alexander caught a kick
and turned it into a front slam on the apron with Ibushi
landing in a sickening thud on the hardest part of the ring.
As Ibushi sat on the apron to recover, Alexander jumped back
in the ring to hit a low crossbody onto Ibushi’s back. Now
it was Alexander who sensed victory with the sleeve off his
elbow to hit a massive lariat! Ibushi kicked out! Callis was
visibly upset.
Alexander put Ibushi on the top turnbuckle and sat in front
of him to set up a fireman’s carry. However, as Alexander
stood up, Ibushi tried to escape, but he fell out of
Alexander’s grasp to the floor. Alexander returned to the
ring while Ibushi remained in pain, clutching his leg as the
ringside medical doctor checked him. With Ibushi unable to
continue, he was counted out, giving the victory to
Alexander.
While Ibushi was still getting medical attention, Callis
yelled into the microphone, “This is what happens when you
mess with The Don Callis Family! This is what you get! No
one can stop the Family!” Mark Davis returned out of nowhere
to attack the injured Ibushi, bolstering the Family that
much more, although Callis’ words summoned someone to stop
them…
KENNY OMEGA IS HERE!
Omega came flying down the ramp with a garbage can, which he
launched into the head of Alexander before sending Davis
sprawling out of the ring! With Alexander stunned on the
ground, Omega crushed him with a knee to the side of the
head. Omega picked up the garbage can one more time and sent
it crashing down onto Davis’ head!.
The Story of Kyle Fletcher vs. Mark Briscoe 5 at
WrestleDream
We took a special look at the upcoming TNT Championship
showdown between “The Protostar” Kyle Fletcher and his
challenger, Mark Briscoe. In just seven days, they’ll have
their fifth one-on-one match, although the stakes have never
been higher. Briscoe said it’s time for him to have singles
gold in AEW, and it’s time to put the TNT Championship
around his waist.
“I’m about to drag you out to deep waters, boy. You better
hope you don’t drown.”
Hangman and Samoa Joe Are Seven Days From Battle
It was time to look back at the face-to-face between AEW
World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page and his WrestleDream
challenger, Samoa Joe, from AEW Dynamite Title Tuesday. Joe
believes Page is a fraud and will give him the gift of
showing him who he really is. Page said, “If you lock me in
the choke, Joe, I will not tap again. And when the match is
over, Joe, I hope you can look me in the eye and know that I
am the champion of the world!”
Tag Team Match: Max Caster & Anthony Bowens def. Big Bill &
Bryan Keith
Once again, Caster and Bowens entered separately and then
went back and forth deciding who would start the match.
Caster initially ceded the ring to Bowens but then made a
blind tag to enter the match. Caster encouraged the fans to
chant for him, and they did! Bowens tried to quiet them down
as Caster was having success against Keith, but when they
didn’t quiet down, he tagged himself back in, taking a
second to pose, which wasn’t appreciated by the Jacksonville
faithful. Now it was Bowens’ turn to show what he could do
against Keith, with an impressive combination of kicks and a
float-over DDT, which he immediately went to celebrate, only
for Caster to steal the crowd’s enthusiasm for his own chant
to start back up!
Bowens expressed his displeasure to Caster, not knowing Big
Bill had just tagged in, so when Caster turned around and
saw Bill, it was clearly too much man. He wanted no part of
Bill and quickly made a tag to Caster. To the surprise of no
one, Caster also had no interest in facing Bill, so he
tagged back out to Bowens. Bowens hadn’t changed his opinion
in the last 30 seconds, so he brought Caster back into the
match with a tag disguised as a huge chop. Before Caster
could tag back out, Bowens dropped away from the corner,
leaving Caster wide open to get splashed by a charging Bill!
Bill manhandled Caster for a few minutes until Caster poked
him in the eye, which Bowens saw as an opportunity for an
elevated Fame-asser on Bill! Caster and Bowens faced off in
the ring, still unable to get on the same page. Bill and
Keith came back to dispose of Bowens and double-teamed
Caster by digging their fingers into his face in a
disgusting manner.
Bill and Keith picked apart Bowens for the next few minutes,
as Caster seemed to be enjoying it and egged on his own
chants until Bill had enough and took him out with a big
boot. Bowens had a brief flurry, but Bill cut it off and did
what Nigel McGuiness described as “self scissoring.”
Keith returned to the match and continued to wear down
Bowens, as it was apparent he needed to make a tag. Bowens
finally broke free and made the tag to Caster despite a
moment of hesitation. Caster exploded out of the corner with
a springboard kick to Keith and a big shot to Bill, sending
both men down to the floor. He beat Keith around the ring
until he missed a chop and connected with the steel post.
Bill saw the opportunity to attack, but Caster was ready and
moved out of the way, sending Bill headfirst into the post!
Back in the ring, Caster hit Keith with a Death Valley
Driver to get a nearfall!
As Caster fired up the crowd, he ascended to the top rope,
yet Bowens decided this was the time to tag back in, leading
to another argument between the two. Keith nearly stole the
match by rolling up Bowens for a two count before he was
thrown from the ring. Caster and Bowens resumed jawing at
each other until a shoving match broke out between the
teammates. It stopped when Bowens gave Caster the heads up
to duck away from a charging Bill, who Bowens then sent over
the top rope. Caster turned right into a pump kick from
Keith, who was then blasted with a Mollywhop from Bowens for
the pin! They did it again!
Caster tried to stop Bowens from celebrating, so despite the
victory, these two remain at odds.
The Bang Bang Gang Run Into Big Bill & Bryan Keith
Flanked by Ace Austin and Juice Robinson, we heard from
Austin Gunn, the self-proclaimed MVP of the pandemic era,
who was feeling himself again in Jacksonville, Florida! The
three noticed a commotion and we saw Big Bill and Bryan
Keith taking out their frustrations on anything in their
path. Robinson tried to get Bill to relax because they were
in the middle of something, so Bill reminded Robinson that
he whooped his ass the last time they were in the ring.
Ace went right at Bill, “You got a big mouth for a big man
who just took a big, fat loss out there!”
Keith stepped in, “Who the hell are you?”
Bill tried to escalate things as the two sides argued, but
Keith escorted him away before anything got physical.
“If they’re not down, we got two words for ‘em … guns up!”
Tag Team Match: TayJay (Tay Melo and Anna Jay) def. Dream
Girl Ellie & Carolina Cruz
Following a pair of strong singles challenges against former
AEW Women’s World Champions last week, as Tay Melo took on
“Timeless” Toni Storm and Anna Jay faced Jamie Hayter,
TayJay was back together tonight as a team in the place
where they first came together, Daily’s Place!
The cohesion of TayJay was on display from the opening bell,
as they completely controlled Ellie and Cruz with tandem
offense. Melo was especially vicious with her strikes and
kicks, which elicited much appreciation from those in
attendance, although not so much from Ellie or Cruz. TayJay
took turns punishing Ellie in the corner before Jay dropped
Ellie from a Gory Special position into Melo’s knee to put
her out! You could have counted to 100, as TayJay picked up
the impressive victory!
Roderick Strong Calls Out the Death Riders
Lexy Nair was with Conglomeration members Willow
Nightingale, Tomohiro Ishii, Orange Cassidy and Kyle
O’Reilly, along with Roderick Strong. Before Nair could ask
anything, Cassidy said he didn’t know how this works.
O’Reilly spoke up, “All right, I’ll admit it. I got out-
Kyled. Big whoop. You live by the Kyle, you die by the Kyle.
It doesn’t make me any less Kyle.”
Cassidy asked, “What Kyle?”
O’Reilly responded, “The other Kyle. He’s tall, Australian,
and he’s covered in grease?”
“His name is Kyle, too?”
“No, his name is Kyle Fletcher, and it burns me up inside!”
Cassidy heard enough and decided to wrap things up, “At this
point, Mark would say something about the word of the day, I
guess, but he’s back on the farm, getting ready to get the
TNT Championship, apparently away from a guy named Kyle?”
Strong interjected, “MOXLEY…and the Death Riders. I don’t
like you, and I don’t think you’re as tough as you think you
are. I’m not in this (pointing to The Conglomeration), but
I’ll do anything, especially if I get to beat your asses. So
let me know.”
Nightingale chimed in, “Well, you know what, Roddy, you may
not think you’re part of this, but mom and dad over here
(gesturing to Ishii and Cassidy??), they taught me well. I
have good values. I’m always proudly representing The
Conglomeration, so I’m gonna have the backs of my
Conglomeration-adjacent civilian-warrior friends tonight in
JetSpeed, so if you don’t mind, I’m gonna go ahead and lock
in.”
Cassidy stopped her, “Willow, hold on. You should do the
thing.”
And with that, Nightingale launched into her best Mark
Briscoe impersonation to fire everyone up as they exited
with O’Reilly acknowledging such a proud moment, “They grow
up so fast.”
Cassidy surveyed the situation with Nair and said, “Yeah, we
really need Mark here.”
The Hurt Syndicate vs. The Demand Far From Over
Back on Title Tuesday, The Demand fell to The Hurt Syndicate
in a street fight, but Bishop Kaun said this isn’t over. Toa
Liona made it clear, “We DEMAND war!”
This Wednesday on the Live 3-Hour AEW Dynamite and Collision
special, Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin will face Liona
and Kaun!
And next Saturday at WrestleDream, the two sides will meet
once again in a Trios Match!
Darby Allin and Jon Moxley Will Come Face-to-Face on
Dynamite!
We went back to Wednesday’s Dynamite, where Darby Allin
handcuffed PAC to the bleachers during his match with Orange
Cassidy, leading to Cassidy picking up the win in the main
event.
As PAC chased after, Allin was ready with mace and then a
taser when more of the Death Riders arrived. Eventually,
things got completely out of hand when Allin produced a
Molotov Cocktail! He was about to light it until security
tackled him before disaster struck, as the Death Riders kept
their distance.
Then, just a day ago at New York City Comic Con, Allin
attacked Moxley during a panel discussion as RJ City, Big
Boom AJ and Tony Khan all did their best to handle the
chaos.
Back in Jacksonville, somewhere in the building tonight, the
Death Riders were gathered to share some ominous words for
Darby Allin. Marina Shafir said Allin is getting in his own
way and needs a reset. Daniel Garcia said Allin is trying to
kill himself in everything he does and that he would rather
die than end up like Allin. PAC said the Death Riders are
legitimate competitors who don’t settle for mediocrity,
while Darby paints his face like a “low-grade children’s
entertainer” who relies on “cheap stunts and props to
achieve anything in life.”
“We will not be held responsible for what happens next.”
Jon Moxley finally appeared and spoke.
“The very next time I see Darby Allin, he will get his face
smashed in. That’s a promise.”
With the looming anarchy set to take place between Allin and
Jon Moxley in their “I Quit” match at WrestleDream next
week, no one can be prepared for what those two men are
willing to do to each other. However, they will come face-
to-face on Dynamite this week, with special precautions in
place to ensure everyone's safety, as the two men aren’t
allowed to touch each other on Wednesday.
Trios Match: Triangle of Madness (Thekla, Skye Blue and
Julia Hart) def. AEW Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander,
“Timeless” Toni Storm & Harley Cameron
It was time for trios action in Timeless fashion, with the
four-time former AEW Women’s World Champion, Toni Storm,
bringing her star to Daily’s Place to team with her opponent
at AEW WrestleDream, the current AEW Women’s World Champion,
Kris Statlander, and Harley Cameron. Before that, they
needed to deal with Thekla, Skye Blue, and Julia Hart in
this Trios Match.
Before the match began, Storm shook hands with Statlander
and Cameron, showing unity tonight before no mercy in
exactly seven days. And Storm convinced her teammates to let
her start the match, immediately going to work on Thekla by
tossing her from corner-to-corner across the ring before
Thekla cut her off with an eye rake and a pair of kicks.
Storm bounced right back with a Thesz Press and a
backbreaker before tagging in Cameron.
Cameron quickly wound up in the wrong corner, allowing Blue
to tag in for the first time. Blue hesitated just long
enough for Cameron to escape her grasp and make a tag to
Statlander. Cameron and Statlander showed off some
impressive tandem offense with Statlander launching Cameron
in a tilt-a-whirl slam onto Blue for a two count.
Statlander’s power was on display with a stalling suplex
followed by a bodyslam. Statlander was briefly stunned when
she went head-first into the turnbuckle, allowing Hart to
tag in, but Statlander was ready with a huge powerslam!
Statlander brought Hart to Storm for a tag, showing
interesting synergy, as Storm hit a snap suplex for a two
count. Cameron tagged back in with a big kick and tried to
break down Hart with strikes until a distraction by Blue on
the outside opened Cameron up for a knee by Thekla. Hart
followed with a DDT, but Cameron escaped on the count of
two.
The Triangle of Madness ensnared Cameron, as she was
confined to their corner for an extended period. Meanwhile,
all three members swiftly made quick tags, ensuring the
punishment continued without any chance of recovery.
Finally, Cameron hit a desperation Sole Food on Blue to get
enough separation to make a tag to Storm. A fired-up Storm
unleashed on Blue with shotgun dropkicks and nearly won the
match with a sitout powerbomb. She went for a Storm Zero,
but Blue countered with a kick right to Storm’s jaw. Hart
came back in to provide some backup, as the two just beat
down Storm before she reversed a double suplex and made the
tag to Statlander!
Big Stat Daddy took turns hitting big shots on each member
of Triangle of Madness in three different corners before
dropping Hart with a neckbreaker combo and slamming Blue
onto Hart for yet another two count. Cameron tagged in to
aid Statlander in a tandem spinning slam, but Thekla was
able to make the save in time.
The match broke down with everyone getting involved,
although we almost had a preview of WrestleDream when
Statlander nearly kicked Storm when Hart ducked out of the
way. Storm caught the kick, and Statlander was quick to
apologize for the mistake. They put Blue down momentarily,
only to resume their staredown, oblivious to what was
happening around them. Hart and Blue took advantage by
running them into each other and out of the ring. Meanwhile,
Cameron rolled up Thekla for a near-fall, but the Toxic
Spider quickly rebounded with a devastating spear to earn
the victory for Triangle of Madness, as Storm was just a
moment too late to make the save.
After the match, Storm grabbed the AEW Women’s World
Championship and ran it down her face before returning it to
Statlander in the hopes of joining the five-timers club at
WrestleDream.
Kenny Omega Meets with “Jungle” Jack Perry
Kenny Omega addressed Don Callis and the sales pitch that he
originally got for the fame and the fortune, which he
understood. But then Callis made it personal and took out
friends and the people Omega loves.
“And for what? And it never ends. And it’s …”
Omega was cut off by a knock at the door. “Jungle” Jack
Perry entered.
Perry acknowledged he was the last person Omega wanted to
see, but he was sorry for what happened to Ibushi and if he
ever wanted, Perry had his back.
Omega asked where this was coming from.
“This coming from the guy that took me out in my hometown of
Winnipeg. The guy that had intestines dangling on live TV,
making fun of the whole situation because I may not come
back. I may not ever be myself again. You were proud of
that. You were happy about that. And now suddenly…”
Perry interjected: “I GET IT! And there’s nothing I can do
to change that. All I’m saying is that you and I have the
same enemies.”
Omega said, “I don’t trust you. You may say you have my
back, but I don’t got yours. That big, dumb dinosaur? I
don’t give a f*** about him, either. But I’ll tell you what,
if you’re saying we have the same enemy, I’m running low on
friends. You wanna have my back? You wanna prove something?
I’ll see you at Dynamite. We’ll see what we can make happen.
You know where the door is. Get out.”
Kris Statlander & Harley Cameron Deal with Wheeler Yuta,
Toni Storm
Lexy Nair was with AEW Women’s World Champion Kris
Statlander and Harley Cameron following their loss to
Triangle of Madness, as Nair noted that things continued to
heat up between Statlander and her WrestleDream challenger,
“Timeless” Toni Storm. Statlander didn’t think things were
heated. It was just women supporting women and supporting …
fighting each other.
Cameron said she wanted to come clean to Statlander. She’s
not a cat and last week, she asked Mercedes Mone to team
with her but was denied – so, maybe, Wrathlander could ride
again?
Statlander said she knew that already because she watches
the show, and while she’d like to go after the AEW Women’s
World Tag Team Titles with Cameron, she has to defend the
AEW Women’s Championship with her life and has to focus on
that, but she’ll always have her back.
“Does that mean I’m a tag team orphan?” Cameron dejectedly
wondered.
Wheeler Yuta took that opportunity to butt in, “Well, well.
There she goes again. Kris Statlander, making a new friend
and then dumping them as soon as she gets what she needs
from them.”
Storm arrived on the scene and dared Statlander to take a
shot right there and then. Yuta yanked himself out of the
situation as Cameron and Nair tried to calm the WrestleDream
opponents.
MxM TV’s Casting Call Trios Match: ROH World Tag Team
Champions RUSH and Sammy Guevara & Dralístico of LFI def.
Mason Madden, Mansoor & Johnny TV of MxM TV
We saw the first MxM TV Casting Call last week on Collision,
although it didn’t go so great for the hosts, as the Don
Callis Family answered the call and convincingly defeated
Mason Madden, Mansoor and Johnny TV. Mansoor tried to put
that behind them and focused on tonight’s casting call
before throwing some childish insults at ring announcer
Arkady Aura, who introduced their opponents…La Facción
Ingobernable, Dralístico and the ROH World Tag Team
Champions, Sammy Guevara and RUSH!
Dralístico and Johnny TV started for their respective teams,
with Dralístico gaining enough of an advantage with his
powerful kicks to send Johnny out and bring Mansoor into the
match. Mansoor tried a kick of his own but was flipped head
over heels onto the mat. Guevara came in and goaded Mansoor
right into a dropkick. Madden had enough and charged across
the ring to knock Dralístico and RUSH off the apron, but not
before Guevara had tagged RUSH. Guevara stayed in the ring
to celebrate, so Madden choked him and repeatedly slammed
Guevara’s head into the mat before dropping him with a
massive Choke Bomb!
MxM TV came in to pose, unaware that RUSH had already made
the tag. RUSH and Dralístico took advantage by attacking
them from behind. Dralístico hit a very dangerous
hurricanrana from the apron to the floor on Johnny TV, who
landed neck first at the base of the guard rail. Ouch! Taya
Valkyrie backed up her man with a running hurricanrana of
her own from the apron to Dralístico on the floor as the
referee checked on Johnny. Back in the ring, Madden knocked
Guevara to the outside with a jumping side kick and went for
another on RUSH, who ducked, leaving Madden crotched on the
top rope. RUSH knocked him to the floor and turned his focus
to Mansoor with chest-caving chops.
A quick-release German suplex by RUSH set Mansoor up for a
jumping double knee facebuster from Dralístico, as LFI were
in total control. Mansoor messed with the bull, so he got
the horns from RUSH with his patented shotgun dropkick in
the corner. Guevara made a big production of tagging in, so
he could crush Mansoor with a brutal swanton bomb to get the
victory. They celebrated with The Beast Mortos until Eddie
Kingston’s music hit.
Eddie Kingston def. The Beast Mortos of LFI
Just like last week, Kingston had no interest in waiting for
LFI to finish their celebrations, so he waved them from the
ring so that he could get right to work with The Beast
Mortos. Kingston and Mortos traded shoulder blocks to begin
the match, although it was clear Kingston’s left shoulder
was still bothering him from last week’s hard-hitting battle
with Dralístico. Kingston hit a flying shoulder block from
the second rope and tried to end it early with a Uraken, but
Mortos saw it coming and bailed to the outside.
When Mortos returned to the ring, he sent Kingston to the
corner but walked into a Kingston boot. Kingston tried to
take advantage by moving to the second rope until a jumping
kick cut him off. Mortos punished Kingston in the corner, as
Kingston crumbled to the mat. With Eddie’s head trapped
between Mortos’ feet, he twisted Kingston’s neck at a
painful angle.
Mortos remained in control for the next several minutes, as
he continued to target Kingston’s left shoulder. Kingston
fought back up to his feet and then unleashed machine-gun
chops all over Mortos in the corner. Mortos pushed right
through them and stopped Kingston in his tracks with a well-
placed chop across the upper chest. As Kingston was doubled
over in pain, Mortos positioned himself for a big lariat
that dropped Kingston in a heap, yet The King of the Bums
somehow found a way to kick out!
Kingston tried to shake out the cobwebs and feed off the
crowd, which woke him up enough to avoid a running boot from
Mortos in the corner, sending the Beast crashing to the
floor. Kingston took an uncharacteristic risk with a dive
through the ropes, and it paid off, as Mortos went crashing
into the guardrail. Kingston brought him back in the ring
for a reverse neckbreaker that was only good enough for a
two count. Now, it was Kingston who lined up for a big
lariat, so Mortos bit him! Kingston responded by biting
Mortos at the same time! They released their jaws at the
same time, allowing Mortos to get free for a spear, although
it wasn’t enough to keep Kingston down for three.
Mortos went to the top, but came up empty, as Kingston moved
at the last moment. With Mortos in trouble, Kingston popped
up and threw Mortos with an exploder suplex. As Mortos
staggered to his feet, Kingston rocked him with a perfectly
placed Uraken to remain undefeated since his return to
action!
HOOK came out to celebrate with Kingston, so the rest of LFI
returned to the ring and went on the attack! They tried to
feed HOOK his own shoe until one-third of the AEW World
Trios Champions, Katsuyori Shibata of The Opps, hit the ring
to make the save.
Jamie Hayter & Queen Aminata Brawl with Triangle of Madness
Lexy Nair offered congratulations to Triangle of Madness
after defeating AEW Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander,
“Timeless” Toni Storm and Harley Cameron earlier in the
night. Before they had a chance to respond, Jamie Hayter and
Queen Aminata crashed the conversation with a wild attack,
just as Thekla, Julia Hart, and Skye Blue had done to them a
week ago on Collision! Security pulled Hayer and Aminata off
as Hayter yelled about Blood and Guts on November 12,
looking for an answer.
Shibata Challenges LFI for an AEW World Trios Title Match
Using a translator, Shibata questioned the championship
behavior of RUSH and LFI, and that he and RUSH are 1-1
against each other, so they should settle the score. The
Opps will put up the AEW World Trios Titles against any
combination of LFI this Wednesday at the 3-hour AEW Dynamite
and Collision.
Mixed Trios Tag: Top Gods (Megan Bayne and FTR’s Dax Harwood
and Cash Wheeler) def. Willow Nightingale & JetSpeed
(“Speedball” Mike Bailey and “The Jet” Kevin Knight)
Our main event began with Willow Nightingale and Megan Bayne
squaring off. The two powerhouses engaged in a series of
shoulder blocks, with Bayne eventually emerging momentarily
victorious. Nightingale came right back with a bodyslam in
an incredible display of strength, much to the delight of
the Daily’s Place crowd!
Willow fed off the crowd as they counted her nine
clotheslines in the corner before putting Bayne down with a
short-arm clothesline to make it an even 10. Nightingale
followed with a running, low crossbody for a two count, and
Bayne tagged out to Dax Harwood. According to the rules,
Nightingale also had to tag out, so Kevin Knight made his
first appearance of the match, a week after defeating
Harwood in singles action.
Harwood was both accurate and aggressive with his elbows and
strikes, although Knight wouldn’t be deterred. He fought
back with a pair of dropkicks to take Harwood down and
another for Cash Wheeler, but he stopped when Bayne re-
entered the ring. She pie-faced him and begged him to do
something, but when she tried to hit him, he blocked it,
leaving himself wide open for a blindside attack from the
still-legal Harwood. Knight was sent to the corner and once
again fought back, using his speed and elusiveness to hit a
springboard dropkick!
During the match, Tony Schiavone also announced that Thekla
and Jamie Hayter would face each other in a singles match at
WrestleDream!
Speedball came running in with a chop to Harwood in the
corner, and Nightingale was right behind him with a
clothesline! Knight finished off the triple team with a
leaping clothesline as Nightingale cut off Bayne with a big
side kick. JetSpeed dispatched Wheeler and went back to work
with a pair of boots to Harwood, who was still in the
corner. With Harwood down, Nightingale crushed him with a
running cannonball, although Harwood was able to kick out
just in time.
After making the tag to get back in the match officially,
Willow went for a dropkick from the second rope, but missed
when Bayne pushed Harwood out of the way. Bayne took
Nightingale to the outside and introduced her to the
guardrail the hard way. The Top Gods completely swung the
match in their favor between Bayne’s merciless beating and
Penelope Ford’s constant interference, leaving Nightingale
helpless to make a tag.
A back body drop gave Willow the glimmer of hope she needed
to make a tag, but on the other side of the ring, Wheeler
tagged Bayne and sprinted across to take out JetSpeed,
leaving Willow alone once again! As she struggled to get up
in the corner, Wheeler charged, and she moved, finally
giving her the path to tag Bailey as Bayne tagged Harwood.
The crowd exploded when Speedball flew into the ring with a
pair of pump kicks to each member of FTR. He avoided a
Harwood clothesline by hopping over the top to the apron to
moonsault Wheeler on the floor, but he moved, and Bayne got
taken out instead, despite not being the intended target!
Bailey returned to the apron and sent Harwood into the
turnbuckle, but when Bailey leapt from the top, Harwood
moved. Bailey recovered and grabbed Harwood for a sunset
flip, which got a massive boost from a springboard forearm
by Knight, but to his credit, Dax kicked out again! Bailey
dropped Harwood with a devastating combination of kicks and
followed with a running shooting star press, but a stubborn
Dax refused to stay down for three.
JetSpeed tried to finish Harwood, but got cut off when
Wheeler tripped Knight and repeatedly sent him into the
guardrail. Meanwhile, in the ring, Bayne stopped Bailey with
an effortless fallaway slam only to dive onto Knight on the
floor! Bayne just took out JetSpeed on her own!
Harwood hit a brainbuster on Bailey, who somehow kicked out,
but then found himself punching his way out of the wrong
corner. He escaped long enough to hit machine-gun kicks on
Wheeler and avoided further damage with a tornado DDT! As
the crowd willed Bailey to the corner, he was cut off by
Wheeler and dragged back to the opposite corner, so Bayne
tagged back in and went for a stalling vertical suplex on
Bailey, but he escaped only for Bayne to nearly take his
head off with a powerful forearm! As if that wasn’t enough,
Bayne followed with a release German suplex, dropping Bailey
right on his head! Bailey finally escaped when he ducked
Bayne’s attempt at a massive splash in the corner and made
the tag to Willow!
Nightingale was met by Harwood in the middle of the ring,
and she wasted no time peppering him into the corner with
chops and forearms as the Daily’s Place crowd erupted with
every shot! That is, until Wheeler dragged her away by her
hair, so she turned around and gave Wheeler the same chop
and forearm treatment! She charged back into Dax at the
opposite corner and followed with big clotheslines! Harwood
reversed a whip out of the corner, but turned away as Willow
turned the momentum into a cartwheel so that she could fire
right back with a perfect enzuigiri! That caused Harwood to
stumble right into a skywalking Knight dropkick, and right
back into Willow for a spinebuster! She instructed Knight to
take out Wheeler on the outside while she went for a pin on
Dax, but he kicked out!
Harwood and Nightingale traded suplex attempts until he
shoved her away and right into Bayne’s head. Harwood rolled
up a stunned Willow for a two-count, so Bayne tagged back in
the match. She took her time picking up Nightingale,
allowing Willow to break free and set up the Babe with the
Powerbomb, but Ford got on the apron, so Nightingale pulled
her in the ring and demolished Ford with a Pounce! Bayne
tried to kick Nightingale, but she caught the leg and put
Bayne in a single-leg crab while JetSpeed cut off FTR with
the same move. Top Gods all made it to the ropes to break
the holds, so JetSpeed hit stereo planchas and wiped out FTR
on the outside!
Back in the ring, Nightingale hammered Bayne with
clotheslines in the corner, so Big Stoke got on the apron to
distract the referee while Ford and Bayne double-teamed
Willow with a Doomsday Device! Bayne pinned Nightingale to
win the main event for the Top Gods! Stoke called for Bayne
to continue the punishment, but before she could, Harley
Cameron ran out with a chain-covered guitar neck to make the
save! We then learned that next week at AEW Tailgate Brawl
before WrestleDream, FTR will face JetSpeed, and Cameron
will team up with Nightingale to take on Bayne and Ford!
That will do it from Daily’s Place!
