DEVELOPMENTS

• Straight into the trios title match tonight. Hangman has cute checkered-flag tights tonight that match Jet and Speedball.
• JACK PERRY's tron hits near the end of the opener. He comes out on stage, just stands there while Ricochet yells at him and taunts him, and then Hangman lays him out with the Buckshot Lariat for the win. 2K Universe Mode ass sequence
• THE RASCALZ are hotboxing again in the locker room. They have new shirts. FTR are here, Cash is mad that they're smoking the Devil's lettuce, and Zach tells them he's Christian. Cash says he wishes they won the no. 1 contendership so they could whoop their asses at Revolution. Dezmond is down to fight them right now, but FTR don't fight for free, so Zach's ready to make a match for tonight. Cash isn't about to give out a title shot to "losers," so Dezmond says they'll just make it an eliminator. Myron wants to do rock paper scissors again, but Zach tells him he and Dezmond are undefeated as a tag team and cites the "betting odds." The match is made during the second match.
• Backstage, JAY LETHAL says that he's tired of everyone saying that Blake Christian and Lee Johnson are the future when he knows they're the right now. This is also Kevin Knight's angle.
• After House of Glory No Turning Back last night, during which MJF successfully defended the title against Zilla Fatu and in which ANDRADE EL ÍDOLO interfered, MJF storms into the locker room after the match irate. Andrade has taken umbrage with MJF handing out title shots to indie wrestlers when everyone in AEW has to fight to get one. If MJF wants to hand out title shots, Andrade says, just give one to him.
• Claudio has fucked up his knee in this CMLL World Heavyweight Championship match and Josh is targeting it extensively.
• Claudio is setting up Josh for the Neutralizer, but Lance Archer gets on the apron. Marina Shafir steps up next to him. Lance is yelling at her which allows Claudio to boot him off the apron, but Josh now grabs Claudio in a rear waistlock and Germans him.
• Megan Bayne has a standby match. It is against B3CCA, which I only find out because comms say it. Arkady Aura literally never announces her.
• Lexy Nair backstage with TOMMASO CIAMPA, who says it's been 24 days since he got here, 21 days since he became the TNT Champion, and 10 days since he lost the title. Ciampa's not happy that Kyle's still in Australia as if he's not still coming after the belt. Ciampa wants Fletcher to know that he wants "Silvie" back.
• During this promo, Ciampa adds that when Mark Briscoe returns, he'll be happy to share the ring with him, friend or foe.
• Mark Davis gets in the ring with a chair, apparently willing to get himself disqualified, but Marina Shafir saves the day by stealing it from over his head. She spits in Mark's face and flips him off before Claudio catches him with a Cactus clothesline.
• Takeshita starts jawing with Marina after the match, which prompts Moxley to get in his face. They start chirping each other. Davis jumps Moxley and Yuta jumps Takeshita, but both immediately get thrown out, and Mox gut kicks Take and lays him out with the Paradigm Shift.
• Lexy Nair backstage with the BABES OF WRATH, and Willow wants to know what it's going to take to get Megan, Penelope, and Lena Kross out of their hair. Willow's willing to defend her titles wherever she needs to.
• The new women's champion THEKLA is in the crowd and is ready to cut a promo calling Thunder Rosa a stupid bitch. I think this is her entire gimmick. She's done with the promo, Julia Hart tries to jump Rosa in the ring, and KRIS STATLANDER cuts her off.
• PRIVATE PARTY have a party going backstage in the tiniest room ever. THE OUTRUNNERS, DALTON CASTLE, BANG BANG GANG, and ANTHONY BOWENS are there. Bowens is in the cuck chair. Zay and Quen come in and say they have some bad news, Truth Magnum says the real bad news is that there's no women at the party, and Bowens yells "HELL YEAH" and everyone just kind of stares at him. Quen says "they" are trying to shut the party down, but Zay says that it's a Saturday night in San Diego so that ain't happening. Private Party are ready to take on any tag teams that want to fight.
• Out of break, GABE KIDD is here with CLARK CONNORS and interrupts Tony Schiavone. He really wants you to remember that he's MENTAL!!! and he's CRAZY!!!! and he's not done with Darby Allin but now he's gotta deal with Orange Cassidy so next week he's going to kill Orange Cassidy. Don't know if that'll be backstage or in a match.
• During the commercial break in the main event, Dax tags in but the ref doesn't see it, so as Brandon Martinez is chastising him, Dezmond rolls up Cash for a visual eight count but Martinez doesn't get it until it's too late.
• Tony Schiavone tells us that Swerve Strickland has been fined $100,000 for his conduct on Wednesday and was suspended for tonight's show. I don't think he was planning on coming to Collision anyway.
• Myron Reed gets trucked by Cash Wheeler outside the ring. Cash puts on Myron's ski goggles and tries to piledrive him but can't get him up. Meanwhile, the Young Bucks are now here at ringside. Cash is pushing them back with the threat of a steel chair, but it leaves Dax exposed two-on-one in the ring to the Hot Fire Flame. Zach pins Dax before Cash can break up the pin, and the Rascalz have beaten the world tag champs clean in an eliminator and have claim to a shot at the AEW Men's World Tag Team Championships.
• The GATES OF AGONY now jump both the Bucks and Rascalz from behind and start beating them down. Meanwhile, FTR are jawing with Malachi, the brother of the Young Bucks, at ringside. They literally grab him over the barricade, shove down the Bucks' mom, and throw Malachi into the ring. JACK PERRY tries to come down to help but gets jumped on the ramp by RICOCHET. Because they need their heat back, they hit a spike piledriver on Malachi in the ring lol and the show ends with FTR and The Demand all talking shit at the bottom of the ramp
