Collision Course - Collision recap for July 1, 2023

We hear from Powerhouse Hobbs, Dustin Rhodes, Roderick Strong and Samoa Joe prior to the men's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament quarterfinals tonight.

MJF quickly beats Kip Morst with the Lebell Lock. After the match, MJF says he was supposed to have the day off, but he had to come to "crappy ass Hamilton" which is full of "the dumbest, most worthless pieces of trash" he has ever seen in his life. He also says he can beat anybody in the back who is from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada who is in the back, and he will even put the AEW World Championship on the line. A larger man shows up, but all of a sudden, "All Ego" Ethan Page stops him and heads to the ring instead. As MJF tells Ethan Page he is not on his level, Ethan Page slaps the microphone out of his hand and that not only does MJF does not even know what he is capable of, everyone else in the back does not care. He talks about how his father moved to Hamilton and worked his way up to being president of multiple companies before telling him that he is not a "bare minimum bitch" like MJF. He then says that MJF is not his champion and that he is the man who AEW calls to do something and not MJF, then says that AEW will pay him back for all the extra stuff he does in due time and that now is "due time." Ethan then dares MJF to put his money where his mouth is and stay true to his word against him, and MJF actually does. This starts a match.

MJF retains the AEW World Championship against "All Ego" Ethan Page after working the left knee during the match.

Tony Schiavone interviews Bullet Club Gold ("Switchblade" Jay White and "Rock Hard" Juice Robinson) - now including The Gunns (Austin and Colten Gunn) as new members - in the ring. Jay White announces that "The Golden Gunns" are new members, and that "The Golden Era" continues tonight when Juice Robinson absolutely wipes the floor with Ricky Starks. The Gunns state that Bullet Club Gold have travelled the world and that Jay White is a grand slam champion, and state that in the last sixteen months, they have become tag team champions and beaten everyone's favorites. Austin says they are the future, but Colten says they are the present and the best tag team in the world. When Schiavone mentions that the rest of Bullet Club Gold is banned from ringside for the next match, Jay White says that Schiavone is just making things up. He then addresses CM Punk, saying that if the goody in his bag is the AEW World Championship, he should leave it in the bag. Jay White then says FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) now have Bullet Club Gold's attention due to having the AEW World Tag Team Championships, and dares them to put their titles on the line against himself and Juice so they can beat them again for the title. Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews CM Punk, FTR and "Absolute" Ricky Starks, and the interview appears on the video screen. He says Jay White can get a replica title at AEW Shop, then says he has friends and not bodyguards. Dax Harwood says that Bullet Club Gold has some guns that are shooting blanks, but if they want the tag team gold, they are okay with having a match. Starks then says that no matter how hard they pray or dream about winning the tournament, he will beat Juice Robinson again to advance in the tournament.
