AEW Collision Results, January 20, 2024

Jon Moxley vs. Shane Taylor (w/Lee Moriarty)



As Moxley stomped down the ramp, the video screen roared with flashbacks of his brutal brawl with Shingo Takagi at New Japan's Battle In The Valley. From the jump, both men hammered each other like blacksmiths forging fury. Taylor rocked Mox with a piston-driven elbow and peppered him with chops, then clotheslined him into the corner like a ragdoll. Mox dodged a cannonball corner charge, but Taylor, all low-gravity muscle, reversed a Death Valley Driver attempt.

He hurled Mox onto the apron, where Mox retaliated by launching him into the unforgiving steel stairs. Taylor crashed back into the ring, but Moriarty, capitalizing on the ref's blink, planted a boot in Mox's face. Taylor nearly stole the win with a back slam, but Mox countered a suplex attempt by turning Taylor into a human landing pad. Taylor scaled the second rope, aiming for a moonsault, but Mox rolled away like a seasoned dodgeball champ.

He caught Taylor mid-flight with a razor-sharp cutter before unleashing the trademark ten punches in the corner. Taylor, fueled by desperation, reversed a suplex and tagged Mox with a thunderous short-arm lariat. A headbutt and a knee strike were followed by a devastating Tree Slam, but as Taylor lumbered toward the cover, Mox cinched in a suffocating Triangle Choke.



Desperate, Taylor used sheer brute force to power out of the hold, but Mox, quick as a viper, rained down hammer-and-anvil elbows. Two Regal Knees from the King of Filth almost sealed the deal, but the fight remained a brutal back-and-forth. Finally, capitalizing on a missed swing, Mox clamped on a sleeper hold that squeezed the life out of Taylor. He transitioned into a Bully Choke, squeezing the last flicker of resistance from his opponent before the ref mercifully called the fight.

WINNER: Jon Moxley by referee stoppage

Fuming and furious, Moxley snatched the microphone. "Don't mistake my silence for acceptance," he growled. "I'm done tolerating any bullshit. Anyone who throws their name around as my teammate, my colleague, better damn well be ready to raise their game. This ain't a tea party – it's war." The tension in the arena crackled as the announcers underscored the significance of Moxley's pointed mention of "teammate."

A condensed rewind flashed across the screen, replaying the brutal ballet of Samoa Joe and Hook's Dynamite clash. Now, the spotlight shifted to Adam Copeland. He stalked down the ramp, his presence commanding attention like a storm cloud rolling in. Tonight, he offered another installment of his infamous Cope Open Challenge. The Grindhouse submission, that bone-crushing maneuver he'd used to twist his past two opponents into oblivion, loomed large as he surveyed the ring. Who would dare step into the lion's den?

Adam Copeland vs Dante Martin

Handshake, then horns locked. Martin, a viper of agility, used armdrags to take down the burly Copeland. He ducked a flying crossbody and retaliated with a senton, his momentum almost stealing the win. The clock whizzed back, Kelly reminiscing about calling a Copeland match before Martin was even a twinkle in his mama's eye. Back to the brawl, Copeland sent Martin flying, his head clipping the steel like a misplaced projectile. The commercial break served as a cruel pause, leaving the tension crackling in the air.

We returned to Copeland grinding Martin into the canvas. A surprise enzuigiri from Martin popped Copeland upright, who then narrowly dodged a clothesline with a well-placed kick. Copeland cut off a springboard attempt, but Martin countered a powerbomb, his acrobatics on full display. A hurricanrana sent Copeland tumbling to the floor, followed by a picture-perfect dive that ignited the crowd. Back in the ring, Martin soared with a high crossbody, but Copeland, wily veteran, reversed the half-and-half into a spine-tingling Impaler DDT.

Copeland poised the spear, a predatory glint in his eyes. But Martin, quicksilver quick, sidestepped the impalement and unleashed his own signature Nose Dive. Copeland's boot found salvation on the ropes, forcing Martin to the top turnbuckle. The aerial dance continued, Copeland cutting off another ascent only to be brought crashing down by a sunset flip powerbomb that rocked the ring. Martin, aiming for another gravity-defying leap, was met with Copeland's thunderous spear, stopping him cold in midair.

Martin wavered on the ropes, his equilibrium shaken. The announcers' astute observation painted the picture - Copeland had methodically thrown him off kilter. Seizing the moment, Copeland cinched in the Grindhouse, squeezing the fight from Martin like water from a rag. The tap came, and Copeland emerged victorious, leaving Martin battered and bewildered in the wake of his calculated onslaught.

WINNER: Adam Copeland

Schiavone slid into the ring, microphone in hand, to shower Copeland with post-match praise. Copeland, basking in the victory glow, acknowledged the influx of young guns taking up his challenge. "Seems the Cope Open's become a buffet for the hungry," he quipped, a playful chuckle escaping his lips. "Five courses of fury, that's me!" he declared, then mock-pondered, "Though I'm not sure what the amuse-bouche is here."

But beneath the lighthearted banter, a steely resolve simmered. Copeland vowed to pick up the slack left by "The Instant Outlier," Christian Cage, fulfilling the promises made upon his arrival. "This TNT Championship," he growled, brandishing an imaginary belt, "has a permanent reservation on TNT, and I'm the maître d'!"

Backstage, the air crackled with a different kind of tension. Danielson and Castagnoli, fresh off their humbling defeat by Kingston, grappled with the sting of loss. "A black mark on my career," Danielson spat, "but a golden feather in Kingston's cap." He grudgingly admitted Kingston's recent surge, but maintained, "A flash in the pan, not the sun." Castagnoli, seething, couldn't stomach another syllable about Kingston. "Ortiz," he growled, eyes glinting like sharpened blades, "is about to become collateral damage."

The commercial break served as a palate cleanser before the next course: the high-flying acrobatics of Top Flight and Action Andretti. But before they could take center stage, Private Party crashed the interview, Kassidy, ever the flamboyant showman, presenting Nair with a neon pink durag as a flamboyant offering. Quen, with a sheepish grin, attempted to explain away his Dynamite victory, blaming a momentary stumble and a strategic rope-grab. Darius Martin, unimpressed by the excuses, issued a crisp challenge: rematch, right here, right now. Private Party, never ones to back down from a brawl, readily accepted.

Thunder Rosa vs Queen Aminata

The commentators pointed out that Rosa hadn't competed in a singles match since August 2022. They engaged in a back-and-forth of holds before Rosa executed a headscissors into a roll-up, earning a close nearfall. Rosa attempted several pinning maneuvers, but Aminata responded with a backbreaker, emphasizing that Rosa's back had kept her sidelined for over a year. Aminata targeted Rosa's back, leading to Rosa countering with a headscissors that sent Aminata to the floor. During the break, Rosa executed a baseball slide.

Upon returning from the break, they exchanged forearms, with Aminata delivering a powerful kick to Rosa's back and following up with a hip attack in the corner. Rosa evaded a facewash kick, retaliating with a impactful clothesline. Subsequently, Rosa executed a Meteora in the corner and a dropkick in the ropes, followed by a Northern Lights Suplex for a close nearfall.

Rosa delivered some "back leg front kicks," as described by Schiavone. Aminata responded with a resounding headbutt, then executed an Air Raid Crash for another nearfall. Aminata landed a significant boot, but Rosa made a comeback with a shotgun dropkick. Finally, Rosa secured the victory with the Tijuana Bomb.

Eddie Kingston and Ortiz, who had recently patched things up after a family-style squabble, were chatting with Lexy Nair backstage. Eddie, grumbling about the pre-match promo obligation, stormed off to prep, leaving Ortiz to handle the interview solo.

Meanwhile, the newly crowned ROH World Six-Man Tag Champs, Bullet Club Gold, swaggered into the ring. Colten Gunn, channeling a poor imitation of DX's iconic entrance music, basked in the praise Jay White reluctantly bestowed. White, while pleased to be back at Collision, sensed something amiss. Enter Austin Gunn, emerging from under the ring with a cardboard cutout of Juice Robinson to rabid applause. As they prepared to depart, The Acclaimed sauntered out, throwing shade and angling for an alliance.

Billy Gunn, fatherly pride brimming, acknowledged Bullet Club's championship conquest but dangled the carrot of even greater achievements. Max Caster, spitting rhymes and flashing cash, reiterated their offer of a supergroup, promising an unstoppable force. "More gold for everyone!" Caster boomed, the crowd echoing the desire with chants of "Bang Bang Scissor Gang." Bowens, seizing the moment, urged everyone to raise their scissors and guns in solidarity. The Acclaimed extended their scissor symbol, and in a scene that sent the audience into raptures, Bullet Club reciprocated, sealing the unlikely pact.

Finally, we cut to a video message from the recently dominant trio of Toni Storm, Mariah May, and Luther. Toni, addressing Deonna Purrazzo directly, confessed to past envy of her technical prowess. With steely conviction, she declared her intent to meet Deonna, vanquish her, and, well, devour her metaphorically speaking, of course.

Daniel Garcia (w/ FTR) vs Buddy Matthews (w/ The House of Black)

The tide turned as Daniel Garcia, fueled by the support of FTR at ringside, met Buddy Matthews' onslaught head-on. Matthews, a powerhouse of brute force, repeatedly sent Garcia crashing to the floor with thunderous shoulder blocks. But the scrappy Garcia, refusing to be cowed, found his own rhythm. He consulted with Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler of FTR, then re-entered the fray, mirroring Matthews' shoulder block with one of his own. The tension crackled as all six men, a combustible mix of aerial artistry and ground-and-pound fury, locked eyes across the divide. Garcia, a mischievous glint in his eye, even teased his signature taunt, the playful dance that infuriated his opponents.

We returned from the commercial break to find the battle spilling onto the apron, a precarious perch above the unforgiving canvas. Replays revealed Matthews' ruthless efficiency during the break, a hanging DDT and a flying knee strike leaving Garcia reeling. Undeterred, Garcia returned fire, sending Matthews crashing to the floor with a piledriver executed right on the edge of the apron. Both men, battered but unbowed, scrambled back into the ring before the referee's ten-count reached zero.

A slugfest erupted within the squared circle. Garcia, his face contorted in a grimace, rained stomps on Matthews' leg, targeting his opponent's known weakness. He cinched in a punishing figure-four leglock around the ring post, then dragged Matthews back into the ring for a vicious chop block. The Dragon Tamer, Garcia's signature submission, seemed imminent, but a slight overextension backfired, allowing Matthews to slam his head into the mat with a sickening thud.

Matthews, sensing his moment, unleashed a flurry of offense. Two brutal rising knees sent shockwaves through Garcia's body, followed by a devastating Jackhammer that nearly put him away. Garcia, ever the showman, ducked a curb stomp attempt and taunted Matthews with his flamboyant dance moves. Matthews, enraged, connected with another knee strike, but Garcia, displaying remarkable resilience, reversed a powerbomb into a jackknife pin for the stunning victory. The crowd erupted, showering Garcia with well-deserved cheers as he celebrated his hard-fought triumph.

WINNER: Daniel Garcia

Following the bell, a chaotic brawl erupted among the six men, prompting referees, security personnel, and fellow wrestlers to intervene and separate them.

After a commercial break, FTR and Daniel Garcia were situated backstage when Lexy Nair approached them. Harwood extended a challenge to the House of Black, proposing a resolution to their feud the following week. He specifically suggested a six-man elimination tag match inside a steel cage.

Roderick Strong vs Matt Sydal

The commentators pointed out that these two guys came up together in Ring of Honor as part of Generation Next. After some initial grappling, Sydal took control with a couple of headscissors and a well-placed kick that knocked Strong to the floor. Seizing the opportunity, Sydal followed up with a plancha just before the broadcast went to a commercial break.

When the commercial ended, Strong quickly turned things around, grabbing Sydal in mid-air and delivering a tough backbreaker. Undeterred, Sydal fought back with more headscissors, a well-executed hurricanrana, and a series of jumping kicks that brought Strong down. Sydal then jumped off the top rope, hitting a Meteora for a nearfall. A rollup by Sydal got another close count before he finished with an impactful Air Raid Crash for yet another nearfall.

Despite Sydal's persistent offense, Strong shifted the momentum, catching him with a powerful jumping knee and sealing the victory with the End of Heartache.

WINNER: Roderick Strong

Eddie Kingston & Ortiz vs. Bryan Danielson & Claudio Castagnoli

The electric crowd roared as Eddie Kingston and Bryan Danielson, two titans of wrestling, stood poised for combat. Before they locked horns, Tony Schiavone, AEW's hype maestro, dropped a bombshell: both Revolution and All In: London were already on track to be among the company's Top 5 highest-grossing shows ever! Talk about setting the stage for an epic encounter.

Kingston, a fiery inferno incarnate, wasted no time in unleashing a salvo of chops and kicks on Danielson, the cerebral technician. Ortiz, the ever-loyal lieutenant, soon entered the fray, but Claudio Castagnoli, the Swiss Cyborg, quickly overwhelmed him. BCC dominance reigned as Ortiz found himself isolated while the cameras cut to a commercial break.

We returned to find Ortiz valiantly battling back, desperately trying to connect with Kingston. But Castagnoli, a human helicopter, caught him in a dizzying Giant Swing. Danielson, opportunistic as ever, hammered Ortiz's chest with stinging kicks. Meanwhile, Tony Schiavone dropped another exciting nugget: the return of AEW's ranking system, courtesy of Tony Khan himself!

Finally, Ortiz clawed his way to the corner and reached for the proverbial torch, tagging in Kingston. The Mad King, straps down and eyes ablaze, met Castagnoli in a thunderous exchange of chops and boots. He drove the Swiss Cyborg into the corner and unleashed a machine-gun barrage of chops that echoed through the arena. Castagnoli, unfazed, countered with a vicious short-arm lariat before dropping Kingston with a thunderous chokeslam.

The tide began to turn as Danielson entered the fray, launching a diving headbutt that nearly decapitated Kingston. Castagnoli, ever the opportunist, dispatched Ortiz on the apron with a brutal toss into a hapless security guard, before returning to the ring just in time to witness Kingston fighting off both BCC members. Danielson, a master of opportunistic offense, caught Kingston with a surprise roll-up for a near-fall. But Kingston, fueled by desperation, roared back with a devastating DDT.

A chaotic double-team sequence erupted: Ortiz tagged in and the two Kings ran wild, soaring through the air with gravity-defying dives. Back in the ring, Danielson latched onto Ortiz with a LeBell Lock, his submission prowess on full display. Castagnoli, ever the watchful teammate, kept Kingston at bay. But Ortiz, fighting with the heart of a lion, clawed his way to the ropes, desperation in his eyes.

The tide turned again as Castagnoli, with the cunning of a predator, capitalized on the chaos. He brutally crotched Kingston on the ropes, leaving him vulnerable to Danielson's Busaiku Knee. The impact was sickening, leaving Ortiz unconscious and unable to defend himself. Danielson, with a ruthless efficiency, capitalized on the momentary advantage, securing the pin and the victory for BCC. Kingston, held back by Castagnoli, could only watch in agony as his team fell to defeat.

WINNER: Bryan Danielson & Claudio Castagnoli

Danielson taunted Kingston while he consoled Ortiz. Danielson went on to spit in Kingston's face before hastily exiting the ring.

During the course of this match, the Dynamite lineup for Wednesday was revealed. Hangman Page is set to go up against Penta El Zero M. Swerve Strickland is scheduled to take on Jeff Hardy. The Acclaimed will defend their AEW World Trios Championships against The Mogul Embassy. Toni Storm and Deonna Purrazzo are slated for a face-to-face confrontation. And in a match that took me by surprise when it was announced, Minoru Suzuki will be responding to Adam Copeland's Cope Open.
