Collision Course - Collision recap for September 6, 2024

Mark Briscoe beats Lance Archer in a Continental Challenge Match to advance to the Four-Way Match for the AEW Continental Championship at All Out.

Backstage, we hear from The Learning Tree ("The Learning Tree" Chris Jericho, Big Bill, "The Bad Apple" Bryan Keith). Chris Jericho says The Conglomeration (Mark Briscoe, Kyle O'Reilly, Orange Cassidy, Tomohiro Ishii) is a well-oiled machine with each member being a cog in the machine that makes them roll. He says it is time for Tomohito Ishii to go back to Japan, and while he has wanted to wrestle Ishii again, now is not the time. Big Cass says time is the most valuable commodity that the human race has, but time must run out for all men. Bryan Keith says this is especially true of Ishii, who is down on the floor with a metal folding chair wrapped around his neck.

Grizzled Young Veterans (Zack Gibson and James Drake) beat The Iron Savages (Boulder and Bronson). After the match, FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) shows up and brawls in the ring with Grizzled Young Veterans, and Gibson saves Drake from the Shatter Machine. Jacked Jameson gets in the ring and raises FTR's hands, but he earns a Shatter Machine for his efforts.

We see a video package for PAC vs. Will Ospreay for the AEW International Championsip at All Out.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Orange Cassidy. Orange says his schedule may be full if he wins tonight, but his backpack will not. He plans to punch "The Bad Apple" Bryan Keith in the mouth for what he did to Tomohiro Ishii, then he will put the Continental Championship in his backpack next to the $7,000 in cash at All Out.

Orange Cassidy beats "The Bad Apple" Bryan Keith in a Continental Challenge Match to advance to the Four-Way Match for the AEW Continental Championship at All Out.

Backstage, "The Learning Tree" Chris Jericho - who is standing near Orange Cassidy's dressing room - congratulates Orange Cassidy on his big win, then says that since he will not get the $7,000 that he took from him, he will take something from Orange: his backpack. Jericho says he will keep the backpack until Orange gives him his money back.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Mercedes Moné and Kamille. Mercedes says she is prepared to win like she always is, then wants to know why Interim EVP Christopher Daniels has to be in his business. She says Kamille may be banned from ringside tomorrow night, but that does not mean she is banned tonight, and tells the fans to stay tuned to see what happens when someone messes with her.

The Outrunners (Truth Magnum and Turbo Floyd) beat Bang and Matthews (Davey Bang and August Matthews). With this match, The Outrunners achieve their first-ever victory in AEW.

Backstage, Renee Paquette hosts a sit-down meeting between Willow Nightingale and Kris Statlander. Statlander says she cared about Willow Nightingale to the point that she gave her a shot at the TBS Championship, but when she lost the TBS Championship, she never got her rematch, and Willow won it soon afterwards. Willow says she was trying to get to AEW and that she was happy for Statlander, and says that Statlander was the last person she expected to stab her in the back. Statlander mentions that Willow failed to give her a title rematch when she held the TBS title despite knowing how much it meant to her, and says it was always about Willow. Willow accuses Stokely Hathaway of getting in Statlander's ear, but Statlander says Stokely has nothing to do with this and that it is between just them. Willow admits she feels blindsided and wishes she had known, but nothing matters now and that what really matters is that she makes Statlander pay. Statlander is glad that their match at All Out is a street fight, as Willow can create physical scars to go with the emotional ones and Willow can be lucky that she is a calm, cool and collected person who knows when the right time to strike is.

Don Callis guests on commentary for the next match.

"The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita beats The Beast Mortos in a Continental Challenge Match to advance to the Four-Way Match for the AEW Continental Championship at All Out.

Backstage, we hear from Saraya and Harley Cameron. Saraya says that Jamie Hayter is "the biggest slag to ever slag" when she disrespected her and her family at All In before beating up Harley, and calls Hayter a stalker. She says they will stalk Hayter back and that she will not like what happens the next time they have a match.

Backstage, we hear from "The Glamour" Mariah May. She says that when the AEW Women's World Championship touched her waist, it marked a new moment in wrestling history. She says that gets off on fights and does not run away from them, and that she has not shaken hands with anyone in the locker room because she knows the best way to know a woman is to make her scream. She says the world needs glamor and that she has yet to have her championship celebration, and with All Out around the corner, and that nothing is more worth the money than watching her be her. Mariah then says the saddest part about being herself is that she will never get to meet Mariah May.

Hikaru Shida beats "The Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo. After the match, Mercedes Moné shows up, but it is all a distraction so that Kamille can show up and attack Shida from behind. Mercedes grabs Shida's shinai, but when she swings it, Shida ducks and Kamille gets nailed instead. Shida fights off Kamille, then hits Mercedes with the Katana after holding onto the ropes to keep from being grabbed by Mercedes.

Backstage, Arkady Aura interviews FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler). Cash Wheeler says that Grizzled Young Veterans (Zack Gibson and James Drake) keep running away, and Dax Harwood says they remind him of "a less-talented FTR" before challenging them to a tag team match next week.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews The Acclaimed ("Platinum" Max Caster, Anthony Bowens, "Daddy Ass" Billy Gunn). Max Caster says he is the best wrestler alive and that The Acclaimed have done a lot this year, and that the tag team division cannot beat them and the road to the tag titles continues. All of a sudden, MxM Collection (Mansoor and Mason Madden) shows up and says The Acclaimed should only be claiming bankruptcy, food stamps and unemployment and that the fans want them, not The Acclaimed, as they beat The House of Black (Brody King and Buddy Matthews). Bowens reminds MxM Collection that everyone loves The Acclaimed and thta they are the only team around here that does "finger stuff."

The Blackpool Combat Club ("The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta,) and PAC beat The Elite (Matthew Jackson, Nicholas Jackson, "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, "Scapegoat" Jack Perry) in an eight-man tag team match that goes past Collision and lasts until after the first commercial break of Rampage.

Here are the highlights from tonight's show!
