AEW COLLISION RESULTS FOR MAY 30
Tommaso Ciampa makes his entrance to join the commentary team. He says if Chris Jericho wants a piece of him, he now knows where to find him. Schiavone says Jericho isn’t here tonight. In that case, Ciampa says he isn’t happy about wasting a trip to Alabama.
Konosuke Takeshita is backstage and thanks The Conglomeration for having his back on Dynamite. They all vow to be champs at the end of the night. Orange Cassidy hands Takeshita a backpack as the babyfaces head to the ring.
Lance Archer, Rocky Romero, and Trent Beretta also get a quick promo backstage where they mock Konosuke for now conglomerating. Everybody dies.
The Conglomeration (Orange Cassidy, Roderick Strong, Kyle O’Reilly) (c) defeat Don Callis Family (Lance Archer, Rocky Romero, Trent Beretta) to retain the AEW world trios championship
Lance Archer turns Freshly Squeezed into Freshly Squashed with a chokeslam on the ring apron. Then he swings Roddy into the barricade heading and says “Everybody dies!” as we go to commercial break. The babyfaces come back after the break, with Cassidy recovering from a piledriver to drop an elbow off Roddy/Trent’s fireman carry onto Rocky for the pin fall win.
AEW Women’s Tag Team Champions Divine Dominion vs. TayJay in a 5-minute Title Eliminator challenge
The champs catch TayJay in stereo fallaway slams in the opening 30 seconds. The punishment continues in the corner, and three minutes remain. Jay sneaks in a roll up for a two count at the halfway point. Melo makes the hot tag with two minutes to go. Lena eats some running pump kicks in the corner. Jay tags back in with 75 seconds left. Double DDT on Kross, but Bayne makes the save. Less than one minute left. The champs go for Divine Intervention, but the move is broken up. Jay locks Bayne in the Queen Slayer choke as the clock runs out. The time limit is reached and TayJay now earn a future tag team title shot.
Ciampa gets in the ring to cut a promo on Jericho for not being in the building. Why does he hate Chris Jericho? Ciampa doesn’t just have one reason, he has a list of 1004 reasons. Number one, Fozzy Sucks. Number Two, he hates those sparkly light up jackets. Number three, those crappy cruises he makes everyone go on with him. Number four, he hates Jericho’s armbars. Number five is that full head of hair on Jericho’s head. Ciampa drops the list after fans chant bald at him.
Ciampa knows that Chris is scum. He may have these people fooled on this good vibes our, but Ciampa knows better. A snake is always a snake. “Jericho, I’ll see you when I see you.”
CMLL World Women’s Champion Persephone is on commentary for the next match.
Hazuki defeats Maya World
Maya’s downfall came after she missed a moonsault. Hazuki took advantage with a lung blower, and then went up top to nail her finisher for the pin fall win.
Persephone gets in the ring to confront Hazuki face-to-face. They will meet next week on Collision in the first round of the Owen Hart Tournament.
Tony Schiavone remembers the life and career of the late Dennis Condrey, with some video clips and pictures to go along with it, some of which came from Jim Cornette.
