Collision Course - Collision recap for March 15, 2025

We hear from Ricochet, "The Wrestler" Katsuyori Shibata, Mark Davis, Mark Briscoe, Undisputed Kingdom (Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong) and FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) at the start of the show.

Ricochet beats "The Wrestler" Katsuyori Shibata to advance in the Dynasty International Championship Eliminator Tournament. It is announced that next week's show will be at 11 PM Eastern/8 PM Pacific on TNT and Max following the NCAA Tournament broadcasts on both Saturday and Sunday.



Backstage, Murder Machines ("The Machine" Brian Cage and Lance Archer) and Mark Davis are seen attacking people backstage.

We hear from "Timeless" Toni Storm and Luther. Toni states that after having the usual fun in Las Vegas, she is ready for some Collision and she wants to collide with Megan Bayne and see what she is capable of. She says that if she wants to swim around like a shark in AEW, she has no problem making shark fin soup and being put away for animal cruelty. Toni also states that she will take on all challengers, as everything will come up timeless.

Powerhouse Hobbs beats Griff Garrison. After the match, Preston Vance and Jacked Jameson are about to get in the ring when The Outrunners (Truth Magnum and Turbo Floyd) show up and even the numbers game.



Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Thunder Rosa. Rosa says the business is built on respect and that some women are too good to show respect, then says she is tired of Megan Bayne disrespecting everyone and that her ovaries are bigger than Bayne's brain cells before Bayne suddenly blindsides her.

Mark Davis beats Mark Briscoe to advance in the Dynasty International Championship Eliminator Tournament after Lance Archer distracts the referee so that "The Machine" Brian Cage can shove Briscoe off the top rope to allow Davis to hit Coriolis for the win.



Murder Machines ("The Machine" Brian Cage and Lance Archer) quickly decimate four unnamed opponents in a four-on-two handicap match after bringing to the ring following a backstage attack and then attacking them further in the ring. (The four opponents in question are the same ones that were attacked backstage, and they are later identified as being Bryce Saturn, El Fatal, Matt Vandagriff and Sonico.) After the match, Mark Briscoe shows up with a metal folding chair, and Murder Machines briefly overpowers him before Powerhouse Hobbs shows up and brawls with Archer. The brawl between Hobbs and Archer goes to the back while the brawl between Briscoe and Cage enters the crowd before also going backstage.



Swerve Strickland heads to the ring. Swerve says he did what he said he would do at Revolution and beat Ricochet to become #1 contender for the AEW World Championship, and gives credit to Ricochet's worthiness as an opponent - even mentioning that Ricochet ruptured his eardrum - before saying he is game for a rematch so he can beat him again. Swerve says that Prince Nana is back at home safeguarding the Embassy robe so that he can be here to take care of business, then states that the AEW World Championship is the top prize in the world and that one must be elite to challenge for it. He talks about how he was "all elite" and how he won the title at last year's Dynasty, then states that he will win the title at this year's Dynasty and be all elite once again. Swerve mentions the street fight between Adam Copeland and Jon Moxley for the AEW World Championship on next week's Dynamite, and mentions his history with Copeland, stating that one does not become dangerous without learning from him. He then says that Copeland is in his way, and while Copeland is a legend right now, he will mow him down. As for Moxley, he used to think they were cut from the same cloth until Moxley thought lesser of the AEW locker room. Swerve says that Moxley does not believe what he is saying and that everyone has to listen to the same drivel every week, and that all he sees is true desperation, which is all Moxley will have to hold on to. Swerve then proclaims that in three weeks' time, whether he faces Moxley or Copeland, the "Dynasty Era" continues when he takes the AEW World Championship and makes AEW his house again. All of a sudden, Swerve is attacked from behind with a crowbar by Moxley, who then curb stomps Swerve into the mat before leaving the building and stating that this is a free lesson and that respect will get nobody anywhere. He then says he hates Copeland's gut for what he has done to him, and that next week, Copeland is a dead man. When Swerve Strickland is tended to in the ring, Swerve holds on to his left ear, and it is believed that his ruptured eardrum may be further damaged.



Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Thunder Rosa, who states that she will still fight Megan Bayne tonight.

Adam Cole and Daniel Garcia guest on commentary for the next match.

FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) beat Undisputed Kingdom (Kyle O'Reilly and Roderick Strong) following a second Shatter Machine to Roderick Strong. During the match, Roderick Strong is able to get his foot on the bottom rope, but this time, the referee is able to see it. After the match, Adam Cole and Daniel Garcia check on their respective teams, then Cole and Garcia have a staredown in the middle of the ring before shaking hands.

We look back on Hyan vs. Athena in a ROH Women's World Championship Proving Ground Match from March 16, 2023.

The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch) beat Sammy Diaz and Matt Raymond. After the match, Vincent says he has noticed that one must force their hand in ROH to get what they want, which is what The Righteous will do, and if he cannot get it done, Dutch will, which is the last thing anyone should have happen. He says they should have been ROH World Tag Team Champions a long time ago and everyone knows it, then warns "The Natural" Dustin Rhodes and Sammy Guevara that if one stabs the body, it is a wound that can heal; if one stabs the heart, it is a wound that lasts a lifetime. Vincent then says that everyone is looking at the ROH World Tag Team Champions, then Dutch takes the microphone and taunts Dustin with his bullrope and cowbell, saying Dustin knows what it is and how much it means to him, and that he knows Dustin looked up at it during his childhood hoping and praying one day it would be passed down to him. Dutch says that fourteen years ago, he spent a lot of time with his father, who saw a lot of potential in him and took him under his wing and treated him like family, because he saw in him what he never saw in Dustin.

Athena says she tore a couple of ligaments in her ankle and that she will be out for four to six months. She says that she has put the ROH women's division on her back and that she did not think her championship reign would end like this, and that is is best for the division, Ring of Honor and MIT if she keeps the ROH Women's World Championship around her waist, as this is not how her reign will end and she will be ROH Women's World Champion forever. Queen Aminata and Red Velvet show up with a referee, and Aminata says that Athena's head and ego are way too big for the boot on her foot, and questions if she is really hurt before threatening to hurt her for real.

Afterwards, Lee Johnson is checked on by medical, and is deemed able to continue. Johnson scores the second fall with an inside cradle after shoving Fletcher into the corner to counter a move.

He also says that Eddie Kingston wants him in a Barbed Wire Everywhere match because he is "a mark for Terry Funk" and that he has never had one while he won his first one early in his career and felt pleasure from it. Jericho goes on to say that Eddie Kingston underestimates him and that he will be facing "The Painmaker," not Chris Jericho. He accepts Eddie's challenge because it is their final fight and because he can send Eddie back into his hole. He also says that Eddie will never be at his level, and if he wants bloodshed, he has got it, and if Eddie wants his blood, then he wants Eddie's blood in a tidal wave so large that the animals on Noah's Ark would be jealous. Jericho then tells Eddie "You're not a liar. You're a loser."

Tony Schiavone interviews "Hangman" Adam Page in the ring. Page says that he was handed back the AEW World Championship after 60 minutes, and after the match, he thought it was funny that after three years, he had never felt less of a champion. He says the only feeling he has from last week was disappointment. Suddenly, Bryan Danielson shows up and calls Adam Page an "entitled millennial cowboy" and mocks him for being disappointed. Danielson says that he kicked Page's ass for 60 minutes and that if anyone should be AEW World Champion, it should be him. He then says that he will not cry about his feelings and that he will kick Page's ass again in the rematch, but this time, he won't have a bad leg from wrestling John Silver and he will not wrestle again until the rematch. Danielson then says that if he stalls for another 60 minutes, they will be in the same position they are now again. He then says he is not an entitled millennial like the fans and proposes that there are judges in the rematch, so if Page stalls again, Danielson will be the true champion. After Danielson says he had last week's match won, Page praises Danielson from taking him into deep waters and to his limit, then says he swam in the final seconds and that he would have drowned Danielson if he had three more seconds. Nevertheless, Page is okay with the time limit and the judges, and says he has come way too far, spilled too much blood and spent so much of himself for the AEW World Championship to be told he is "a B-plus player." He says that as far as whether or not he can beat Danielson goes, the answer is "yes."



We hear from The Pinnacle. MJF thanks Shawn Spears for being accountable for Wardlow, then says that CM Punk drives people insane and burns bridges, which is why he and FTR are not worried about tonight. He says they are family unlike CM Punk, Sting and Darby Allin, then says Punk has to make everything about himself and that the real CM Punk comes out to play when it isn't. He says that Punk is more rusty than the knife Darby uses to skin small animals and that Punk chose early retirement when he messed with him. Dax Harwood says that he has no problem with CM Punk, but Punk threatened him and that he, MJF and Cash Wheeler are the three kings of professional wrestling.

We see a video package for "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes vs. Sammy Guevara for the TNT Championship for this week's Rampage.

We suddenly hear from Dan Lambert and The Men of the Year (Scorpio Sky and "All Ego" Ethan Page). Lambert says the fans are not leadership material, and says every decision he makes must be fair for his fighters so the most successful are the most deserving. He then says that Tony Khan uses the buddy system and says that whoever isn't his buddy ends up the opening act, then says that Scorpio Sky and Ethan Page will be sitting on the sidelines while Cody Rhodes gets another title shot. He also says that Tony Khan has set him up for failure because he does not like him, and says he cannot get people to cheer for Cody when Cody is a bigger dick than he is. Lambert then says he does not care who the fans cheer or boo, because his only concern is that Scorpio Sky or Ethan Page get the next title shot, as they will not need help from anyone in the back to bring the TNT Championship back to American Top Team.



Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D., who says she is bigger and stronger than Riho - and also has Jamie Hayter by her side - before saying that 2021 cannot be brought up without bringing her up, as she built her own throne and the women's division from the ground up. She says that 2022 will not start with Riho taking the AEW Women's World Championship, and tells Riho she should have stayed underneath the bottom rope at All Out, then tells Riho she is out of her league before saying "You'll shoot your eye out, kid."

Archer says that while Halloween has come and gone, he and Roberts are still trick-or-treating all over AEW and that nobody can stop the path of punishment he is on.

Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for July 22, 2020

Before the next match, Eddie Kingston shows up and says it is easy to talk about living a rough life and having to grind when "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes grew up around wrestling legends, then says he grew up around alcoholics and junkies and says he had to grind to survive. He says that every person Cody has faced is a child while he is "a grown-ass man" who will put him in the ground and smile. Kingston then says that the best thing about this is that Tony Khan paid him to show up and will pay him again to kick Cody's ass and take the TNT Championship, then threatens to gouge "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson's eye out. He then says that the match will also be no-disqualification if Cody accept, and that Cody has to accept as he is either "an egg-sucking dog" or "an egg-sucking bitch." The match is officially made a no-disqualification match.



"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes retains the AEW TNT Championship against Eddie Kingston with a Figure Four Leg Lock after being slammed into thumb tacks.



We hear from Jon Moxley, who says that in a business where everyone is full of it, he has been keeping it real and says that when he says he will do something, he will do it. He gives credit to Taz, as "The Machine" Brian Cage was very close to surgery and Taz gave the right call. He then warns Cage that next time, he will not let go.

Before the next match, MJF tells Griff Garrison that he is in the ring with a prodigy with a heart of gold, and gives him the opportunity to talk about himself before calling him "Jungle Man." Griff tells him what his real name is, then MJF says Griff looks like he couldn't even graduate finger painting class, let alone an Ivy League college. When MJF gives him a chance to share what it is like to be in the ring with someone who is undefeated, Griff tells him he lost a tag team match at Fyter Fest. MJF turns around, saying Griff has a good point, then hits him with a cheap shot with the microphone.



MJF beats Griff Garrison. During the match, MJF gives Griff Garrison a chance to tell the fans that he is undefeated, and makes him say it after slapping him around.

In footage from earlier today, Tony Schiavone interviews Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D., who says that the conspiracy continues as she talks about Hikaru Shida busting her nose open and how she became a role model only for her nose to be a target. She then introduces Rule #4: "Never count out a role model." Britt says she is about to make a comeback, and says not to count her out, especially at All Out.



Taz and "The Machine" Brian Cage show up. Taz says he and Cage had a very difficult week full of heated arguments and discussions in which Cage almost fired him. Taz says he threw in the towel last week because the longer Jon Moxley had Cage in an arm bar - which Taz admits was "legit awesome" - the more likely Cage's bicep would be torn a second time, with Taz saying he has been there before. Taz says that Cage will never be in that position again, as Cage did not tap out and will not tap out, because he is not wired to. He says that Cage is FTW Champion because he has "an FTW mindset," then Darby Allin shows up only to be blindsided by "Absolute" Ricky Starks. Starks and Cage attack Allin again. As Cage is about to hit Allin with his own skateboard, Moxley shows up with a barbed wire baseball bat.



The summer: the Women's Tag Team Cup Tournament: The Deadly Draw!

Backstage, Alex Marvez interviews Chris Jericho, who says that his jacket is ruined because of Orange Cassidy and that he will now ruin and embarass Orange Cassidy like The Inner Circle will ruin and embarrass Jurassic Express (Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus) for laughing at what happened last week and Marko Stunt calling him an idiot. He says that Marko's "bulbous head" and Jungle Boy's sideburns are funny while Luchasaurus is not a real dinosaur, then says that Jurassic Express will be extinct.



The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) beat The Butcher & The Blade in a Falls Count Anywhere match.



Backstage, Alex Marvez interviews "Jake "The Snake" Roberts and Lance Archer. Archer takes Marvez to the locker room, where he attacks everyone inside while Roberts says that both of them are getting frustrated with Archer not being on the show.

"Hangman" Adam Page beats Alan "5" Angels. During the match, The Dark Order shows up to watch, and Brodie Lee and Colt Cabana show up after the match. Brodie Lee enters the ring and addresses Adam Page, saying he has been nothing but impressed with him before stating he is lacking friends and a tag team partner when in immediate danger. Brodie Lee tells Page that The Dark Order will never leave him alone and always offer their protection, but Page says that while he appreciates the compliments, he is not ready to join a cult right now. Brodie tells Page he has made his bed and that he hopes he enjoys sleeping in it. Brodie and Colt leave, then the rest of The Dark Order surround Page. Page fights them anyway, and the numbers game catches up with him before FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) show up with beer coolers and smashes The Dark Order with them. Kenny Omega also shows up, but by then, The Dark Order is retreating.



Next week: The Dark Order (Evil Uno and Stu Grayson) vs. Kenny Omega and "Hangman" Adam Page for the AEW World Tag Team Championships! Hikar Shida vs. Diamante!

Ian Riccoboni interviews Jay Lethal in the ring. Lethal says there is a lot on his mind and that it might take a while, and asks Ian to let him take it from here. Ian hands Lethal the microphone and leaves, then Lethal lays the ROH World Championship on the mat. Lethal says he does not even know where to begin, as there is so much pressure on me other than being ROH World Champion. He says he has watched the company he has put his heart and soul into deteriorate before his very eyes, and guys like Bully Ray and The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) run around and cause chaos because they can. He says that he will not stand for this anymore, and he says that the worst part about it is that there is a man with a fake belt running around with a fake World Championship. Lethal says that when he thinks about this, his soul cries out for change in ROH, which he says will change soon. Suddenly, Lifeblood (Juice Robinson, Mark Haskins, David Finley, Bandido, "Hot Sauce" Tracy Williams, Tenille Dashwood) shows up, and Juice Robinson says they are speaking the same language. Lethal tells Robinson says it does not end with them, and says he does not want to join Lifeblood, but Robinson says there was never an invitation. Lethal tells Robinson he respects that, and that he believes they want what is best for the company. He gives massive respect to each individual wrestler in Lifeblood, then tells Robinson he does not have to tell him what he has to do to get ROH back on track. He says that he believes Lifeblood can get ROH back on the track it should be on, but he has tried and it is not easy. He wishes Lifeblood luck, but as he leaves the ring, Robinson tells Lethal that they both feel the same way, and says that if there are more like-minded individuals like them in the back, then they should stop singing and start bringing. He then tells Lethal to find four such individuals, then they can get to it. Lethal says he has so much on his plate, but since Lifeblood want to lead by example, he is willing to do this and give the fans a match they can be proud of next week.
