AEW Collision (Episode 20)
Uncasville, Connecticut at Mohegan Sun Arena
Aired live October 28, 2023 on TNT

[Hour One] The Collision opening aired and then Kevin Kelly, Nigel McGuinness, and Tony Schiavone checked in on commentary. Dasha handled the introductions for the opening match…

1. Jay White (w/Juice Robinson, Austin Gunn, Colten Gunn) vs. AR Fox. McGuinness hyped that it was only 90 minutes until the main event. White dropped Fox with a DDT for a near fall heading into a picture-in-picture break. [C]

Fox took out White’s sidekicks with a flip dive at ringside, then ran to the other side of the ring and hit White with a flip dive. White performed a twisting vertical suplex on White back inside the ring and followed up with a 450 splash for a near fall.

A short time later, Fox pulled White off the top rope into a Spanish Fly for a near fall. White came right back with a Bladerunner and scored the clean pin.

Jay White defeated AR Fox in 10:50.

After the match, MJF showed at ringside and grabbed his AEW World Championship belt. As MJF tried to escape, White ended up getting his hands on the belt. MJF released the title belt and headed to the back without it…

Powell’s POV: Zero mystery here with White challenging MJF for the AEW World Championship at Full Gear, but it was fine for what it was.

Backstage, Billy Gunn, Max Caster, and Anthony Bowens boasted that they’ve been AEW Trios Champions for 62 days. Caster said MJF texted him and said he would be ringside for their 69 celebration next week. Bowens looked at his phone and informed Caster that he’d been catfished. Caster said he sent the person pictures…

Dalton Castle and The Boys made their entrance…

2. Austin Gunn and Colten Gunn (w/Juice Robinson, Jay White) vs. “The Boys” Brandon Tate and Brent Tate (w/Dalton Castle). The Gunns isolated one of the Boys. The other Boy ran in and was quickly tossed over the top rope. The Gunns hit the 3:10 To Yuma on the legal Gunn and then Colten pinned him…

Austin Gunn and Colten Gunn defeated “The Boys” Brandon Tate and Brent Tate in 1:40.

Powell’s POV: A quick showcase win for the Gunns heading into their ROH Tag Title match against MJF at Full Gear. Interestingly enough, the graphic the showed for the match listed MJF and “???” with a blank image spot, so it may not end up being a handicap match after all.

A video package aired on the MJF vs. Kenny Omega match that will headline this episode… [C]
