Backstage, we hear from Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor and "Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty). Shane Taylor says that Final Battle did not exactly go to plan for them, and Lee Moriarty says that while he has come up short and may have hit a plateau, he is not stopping here because he is motivated and he is not stopping until he reaches the top. Shane Taylor says that everyone is on notice and that one's hands cannot hit what one's eyes cannot se and that everyone is getting put down.

He says that the television title was his ticket onto every screen in the world and that he was going to buy the respect that he deserved.

Suddenly, "Legit" Leyla Hirsch and Rachael Ellering confront Maria for trying to stop Rachael from winning tonight, and Leyla is not buying Maria's explanation for what she was doing. Rachael says their dynamic is not going to get them any closer to the Women's Television title, and Leyla says that if this is Maria's way of helping them, then she does not want it. Maria tells them to see what they do without her help, for it will not be good and her spotlight will always outshine theirs everyday. With Maria out of the way, Rachael and Leyla pledge to do their best.

Gravity, Dalton Castle and The Boys (Brandon and Brent Tate) beat The Spanish Announce Project (Angelico and Serpentico), Griff Garrison and Cole Karter in an eight-man tag match.

Collision Course - Collision recap for November 25, 2023

Claudio Castagnoli beats Daniel Garcia in the Blue League of the Continental Classic and earns three points. Wheeler Yuta comes out and celebrates with Claudio after the match.

We hear from Eddie Kingston, who says that all he ever wanted to do is wrestled in Japan, and now that he has done that and won a championship, he has put that championship along with the Ring of Honor World Championship to ensure the Continental Classic is the most prestigious tournament in America. He says that Brody King is not a small man, and that he must get ready to fight him.

Luchasaurus - now officially known as Killswitch - beats The Boys (Brandon and Brent Tate) in a two-on-one handicap match. After the match, Killswitch pulls two chairs out from underneath the ring, unfolds one and chokeslams one of The Boys onto it before grabbing the other Boy. Suddenly, Adam Copeland shows up from behind Killswitch and hits him repeatedly with a chair, then pulls the bottom bar from the chair and puts him in a crossface with it. Copeland then goes for and hits the Con-Chair-To on Killswitch. Somehow, Killswitch tries to pull himself up afterwards, and Copeland responds with a curb stomp onto a chair before hitting another Con-Chair-To.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Adam Copeland. Copeland shows up and tells Lexy Nair to leave, then looks straight at the camera and addresses Christian Cage, saying that everything that has happened to Killswitch and "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne is all on Christian and his insecurities, as Christian thought that everyone would compare him to Copeland as soon as Copeland arrived and would become second fiddle again. Copeland says he could care less about that and that their friendship is more important than anything else, and yet Christian could not get past his own ego. He says that Christian was about to Con-Chair-To Sting the night he showed up, and last Wednesday, Christian almost hit a Con-Chair-To on Shayna Wayne. He also mentions Christian mentioning Beth Phoenix as well as his two children and reminds Christian that he has a short fuse, and that he would not let Christian light it until Christian made it clear that he would break his neck. Copeland then says that Christian is not only threatening him and his furutre, but also his children's futures, and now he is hunting Christian. Copeland says he already has two heads on his wall, and he tells Christian to ask Nick Wayne and Killswitch what happens when he snaps, for he will change his soul and kick his face in, and when Christian closes his eyes, he will picture him and the pain he will bring into his world. He then says he will take the TNT Championship, which is secondary to him, because it is the most important thing in his world, and on Dynamite on December 6th in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, he will go places that Christian will never go because he does not have the dog in him while he takes Christian's title.

The House of Black (Malakai Black and Buddy Matthews) beat Komander and Gravity after Buddy Matthews curb stomps Komander as Komander is being taunted by Malakai Black.

Backstage, we hear from Action Andretti and Darius Martin.

Darius admits they have been creating some chemistry, but something seems off, and he knos what that might be. Dante Martin shows up and fist bumps both Andretti and Darius, then says it is time to take flight, because he is back.

Julia Hart retains the AEW TBS Championship against Lady Frost. Under House Rules, there are no countouts in this match.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Don Callis and Powerhouse Hobbs. Callis says he cannot understand how Chris Jericho and Kenny Omega have a shot at the tag team titles when he broke both of them and sent them to the hospital. He says that he does not need two men to beat them and that Hobbs alone can do it. Hobbs says he is big, Black and jacked, and anyone can get it.

FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) beat The Righteous (Vincent and Dutch). After the match, The House of Black (Malakai Black and Buddy Matthews) show up and tells FTR that nobody is coming to save them - not even CM Punk - and that AEW is not the brotherhood that FTR thinks it is. The lights then go out, and when they come back on, The House of Black are nowhere to be seen.

Action Andretti and Dante Martin's promo announcing Darius Martin's return from Rampage is replayed due to TNT going to commercial earlier than expected.

Tony Schiavone interviews "Absolute" Ricky Starks and Big Bill in the ring. Starks says he expected more of a fight from Chris Jericho, and he knows that the "clout vampire" that is Chris Jericho will try to come back around and bite his neck, but it will not happen. Big Bill says "The Golden Jets" are more like "The Golden Girls" when it comes to Jericho and Kenny Omega, and Starks says that while he and Big Bill barely know each other, he knows that Jericho and Omega are not built like Big Bill. Big Bill goes on to say that four years ago, while he was going in and out of emergency rooms due to seizures from alcohol withdrawal, when he could not get out of bed while in the lowest point of his life, and when everyone counted him out and stopped believing in him, he always knew he would make it back to the top, and standing with Starks with the AEW World Tag Team Championship, he made it back to the top. He says that he and Starks know all about Jericho and Omega and know that they are two of the best to ever do this, but he does not think they realize who they are dealing with, as he and Starks are angry, motivated and ready to embarrass them. After comparing himself and Starks to legendary NBA basketball duos, he does not see any of the legendary Chicago Bulls players in Jericho or Omega; instead, he just sees "the dudes that hand Michael Jordan his Bazooka Joe bubble gum before starting line-ups are introduced." Starks says one tells everyone they are the best while the other is, and when all is said and done, he likes his gum minty fresh while Big Bill loves Big Red.

We see a video package for the participants in the Gold League of the Continental Classic, who are all in action next week on Dynamite.

Keith Lee beats "Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Keith Lee. Lee says he planned to talk about how good and talented Lee Moriarty is, and while he is good, he is no Keith Lee. He then says he is tired of the misrepresentation, mistreatment and lack of opportunity given to him, and that he will take it, and by "it," he means "him." He says that he knows who it is and that he knows what he wants.

Brody King beats Eddie Kingston in the Blue League of the Continental Classic and scores three points.

Collision Course - Collision recap for November 17, 2023

Tony Schiavone interviews Christian Cage, Luchasaurus and Nick Wayne in the ring to start tonight's show. Christian Cage says the town is full of "plastic, phony people" who are about to hear someone speak the truth, and it is lucky for them that they not only get to see Sting's final match in Los Angeles and his final match ever, which he guarantees, as he is tried of looking at Sting and his facepaint and watching people bow down to him and call him an icon while he lives off his past and steals a check like he has for the last fifteen years. He also looks forward to Darby Allin losing a mentor, and tells Darby that if he ever needs that fatherly guidance, he knows who to look for. As for "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, Christian says that if he sticks his nose in his business, it will be "his literal 'Come to Jesus' moment." Christian also says that Adam Copeland will regret ever signing a contact with All Elite Wrestling, and that while Copeland can fool everyone into thinking that he is here to tag with him one more time, nobody knows him better than he does and he knows Copeland wants to steal his spotlight. He says he is not the same person that he was back then, and while Copeland was coddled and handed all sorts of opportunities, he was stuck in the trenches fighting for every inch, and they will see whose career path served them better. He also tells Beth Phoenix to keep the kids up tomorrow night, as he will break Copeland's neck. Christian then states that AEW wants him on their programming as much as they can, then says he can beat the participants in tonight's four-way match to decide a new #1 contender for the TNT Championship all at the same time and that he will keep running things in AEW, for he is the system.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Big Bill and "Absolute" Ricky Starks. Big Bill says they are the best tag team ever in history, no question, and that he and Starks do not even need to be pinned to lose their tag tema titles. Starks says that he was allowed to pick a stipulation to favor them, and he is picking a ladder match. He says they do not need acronyms to prove why they are the best, for when they walk out of Los Angeles, they are walking out in style as champions and the greatest tag team anyone has ever seen.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews CJ Perry and Andrade el Idolo. Andrade says he is happy as of late, and CJ Perry says that Andrade has been born to do this and that she is entering him into the Continental Classic, with Andrade getting paid a bonus if he wins thanks to CJ Perry talking to Tony Khan. Andrade is taken aback, but after CJ Perry whispers into his ear, he likes the idea.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Don Callis and Powerhouse Hobbs. Don Callis says Paul Wight is out on the shelf and done after Hobbs slammed him through the hood and windshield of a car. Hobbs says anyone can get it, and he took out a living legend of a giant, and while he knows Paul Wight is convalescing in a hospital, he tells him to stay away, because anyone can get it.

Backstage, Lexy Nair interviews Action Andretti. Andretti's medical update on Darius Martin is interrupted by Roderick Strong and The Kingdom (Matt Taven and Mike Bennett), with Bennett stating that Darius has "a bruised ego and a weak ass neck" before Taven tells Andretti to stop embarrassing himself with his haircut. Andretti tells them to shut up, then Roderick declares Action Andretti his next victim.

Buddy Matthews beats Wheeler Yuta. After the match, Buddy brings a chair into the ring, but he retreats when Claudio Castagnoli shows up. Claudio says that is Buddy wanted their attention, all he had to do was ask, and that Buddy has pissed him off for the last few weeks and would hate to leave Los Angeles without kicking some ass. He then challeges Buddy Matthews to a match at Full Gear.

We see a video package for Jon Moxley vs. Orange Cassidy for the AEW International Championship at Full Gear.

MJF admits that The Gunns (Austin and Colten Gunn) are "very ugly" but also very talented, and that he will do whatever it takes to keep the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Championships to uphold his promise to keep the tag titles for when Adam Cole gets back from injury, which he blames himself for. As for "Switchblade" Jay White, the AEW World Championship means everything to him and symbolizes all his hard work, and that Jay White - who reminds MJF of the parts of himself he despises - stole the title because he is insecure, and that the man makes the championship and that Jay White will lose because he is not on his level. On the subject of being world champion for close to a year, MJF says that the likelihood of that happening has always been "slim to none," and while the likelihood of winning both of his match at Full Gear is also slim to none, he likes those odds.
