Katsuyori Shibata got a solid reaction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(1) BRYAN DANIELSON vs. KATSUYORI SHIBATA\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Danielson and Shibata began with some great chain wrestling. Danielson took control early, stomping on Shibata\u2019s arm and legs. Danielson grabbed hold onto Shibata\u2019s wrist. Shibata responded by rocking Danielson with forearm smashes.

This was really fun seeing Danielson and Shibata begin with a technical exchange. The intensity picked with Danielson and Shibata wanting to bring the best out of each other. Good to see Danielson get the clean win as he\u2019s set to face Will Ospreay at the AEW Dynasty PPV. Overall, this was just fun seeing Danielson and Shibata get the chance to have a match together.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014They showed highlights of Mercedes Mone\u2019s debut at AEW Dynamite. [c]<\/p>\n<p><strong>(2) JULIA HART vs. TRISH ADORA \u2014 TBS Title Open House Match<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hart\u2019s entrance looks awesome. House of Black was banned from ringside. Adora shined early catching Hart with a rollup for two. Hart responded by applying an Octopus hold but Adora broke free. The action moved the floor as Hart took control slamming Adora onto the ring steps. Hart whipped Adora, sending her crashing into the barricade.

Hart delivered a nice looking flying moonsault press for the win.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0Julia Hart\u00a0in 7:40 to retain the TBS Title.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Amin\u2019s Thoughts:\u00a0There looked to be some moments where Adora and Hart were off at times. This was a fine match. A fine showing from Adora as she can pull off some impressive moves. A good win to build up Hart who looks to have some big matches with Willow Nightingale and possibly Mercedes Mon\u00e9 as well which could be saved for the AEW Dynasty PPV.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2146612226\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\u2014Lexi Nair interviewed Harley Cameron and Zak Knight backstage.\u00a0Nair asked Knight about Angelo Parker challenging him to a match. Knight said he would give Parker a fight but not in Canada. Knight said he would fight Parker on his terms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(3) DANIEL GARCIA vs. LEE MORIARTY (w\/Shane Taylor)\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Daniel Garcia got a solid babyface reaction. Matt Menard was on commentary for the match. Garcia and Moriarty were evenly matched to start. Garcia did his signature dance. Garcia took early control, nailing Moriarty with a basement dropkick.

Moriarty responded by nailing Garcia with a leg lariat. Moriarty went for a suplex but Garcia escaped. Garcia rolled through placing Moriarty in a knee bar for the submission win.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0Daniel Garcia\u00a0in 5:15<\/p>\n<p><em>(Amin\u2019s Thoughts:\u00a0This was a solid match. A good showing from Moriarty who\u2019s a great wrestler that can help make his opponents look good. A nice little showcase here for Garcia who looked strong in the win. Good to see they are still putting focus on Garcia after not winning the TNT Title at Revolution.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014They showed highlights of Darby Allin vs. Jay White from AEW Dynamite. They showed clips of Bullet Club Gold attacking The Acclaimed and Billy Gunn. They showed a picture of Darby needing surgery after suffering a broken foot in the match.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(4) PAC vs. AARON SOLO\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Solo shined early, planting Pac with a cradle suplex. Solo followed catching Pac with a dive on the floor. Pac quickly took control rocking Solo with corner strikes. Pac rocked Solo with a running boot. Pac followed by hitting a missile dropkick. Pac delivered the Black Arrow which looked awesome. Pac placed Solo in the Rings of Saturn for the submission win.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0Pac\u00a0in 3:35<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Pac delivered a promo after the match. He said \u201cTony, Tony, Tony&#8230;the B*stard is back!\u201d He said he\u2019s looking for trouble. He said this is not what he had in mind. He said he\u2019s looking for trouble. He told Tony Khan to find him some. Or he will find it himself.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Amin\u2019s Thoughts: They gave Solo some shine which was good for him. This was mostly a quick squash for Pac who looked great in the match. A good follow-up promo from Pac wanting some better competition.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014Bryan Danielson was meditating backstage.\u00a0He spoke about being thankful to wrestle Shibata on Collision. He brought up how he and Shibata were told they couldn\u2019t wrestle. He said he and Shibata wrestled like hell. He said he\u2019s grateful that he has a match with Will Ospreay coming up. He said he watched what Ospreay said on Dynamite. He spoke about how he emulates Danielson inside the ring. He said when Ospreay gets in the ring it\u2019s live or die. He said Ospreay can\u2019t walk in his shoes. He said Ospreay can\u2019t walk in his shoes or Shibata\u2019s shoes because they were told they weren\u2019t able to wrestle again. He spoke about being on death\u2019s door. He said he knows what he\u2019s willing to do. He said Ospreay isn\u2019t ready for that yet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(5) CLAUDIO CASTAGNOLI vs. LANCE ARCHER\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Claudio got a strong reaction. Archer and Claudio began exchanging shoulder tackles. Archer and Claudio next exchanged clotheslines as they couldn\u2019t get each other off their feet.

Claudio called for the Neutralizer but Archer broke free. Claudio nailed Archer with a springboard uppercut for two. Claudio went for a Giant Swing. The Righteous\u00a0attacked Claudio for the DQ.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0Claudio Castagnoli\u00a0in 11:10 via Disqualification<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Bryan Danielson ran down to make the save. The Righteous\u00a0had the number\u2019s advantage. Katsuyori Shibata ran down with a chair to make the save. Claudio and Danielson shook Shibata\u2019s hand.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Amin\u2019s Thoughts:\u00a0This was a solid action packed match between two big men as both Archer and Claudio worked great together. They could\u2019ve easily given Claudio the win because Archer hasn\u2019t recently done much in AEW. The DQ finish was lame but was done to likely set up a six-man tag. The Righteous\u00a0aren\u2019t a team that interests me.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014Lexi Nair interviewed Angelo Parker and Ruby Soho backstage.\u00a0Parker spoke about Ottawa, Canada being almost an hour and half away from where he grew up. He said Ottawa was like a second home to him. He said he\u2019s ready for a fight. Soho told Parker to relax. Parker said he\u2019s going to look for a fight. Soho said that\u2019s exactly what they want. Soho said Parker can look for a fight without her. Parker apologized to Soho. He left with Soho.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(6) KYLE O&#8217;REILLY vs. BRIAN KEITH\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kyle O\u2019Reilly received a strong reaction. O\u2019Relly went for an arm bar but Keith countered into a rollup for a near fall. Keith rocked O\u2019Reilly with a shoulder tackle. O\u2019Reilly rolled to the floor selling his neck. O\u2019Reilly entered back into the ring as he and Keith exchanged strikes. Keith took control catching O\u2019Reilly with a DDT for two. [c]<\/p>\n<p>Keith placed O\u2019Reilly in a cravat as they returned from break. O\u2019Reilly responded by catching Keith with a knee to the gut. O\u2019Reilly made a comeback planting Keith with a backdrop suplex. O\u2019Reilly applied a knee bar but Keith grabbed the ropes. O\u2019Reilly placed Keith in a triangle hold.

O\u2019Reilly planted Kieth with a brainbuster for two. O\u2019Reilly placed Keith in an arm bar for the submission win.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0Kyle O\u2019Reilly\u00a0in 11:30<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Roderick Strong, Mike Bennett and Matt Taven came out after the match. Strong hugged O\u2019Reilly. Bennet and Taven carried O\u2019Reilly on their shoulders.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Amin\u2019s Thoughts:\u00a0This was a good match. Just like Moriarty, Keith is another talented wrestler on the roster who can make his opponent look good. It was great to see O\u2019Reilly returning back from injury. A nice showing from O\u2019Reilly as he looked good in the win. I liked the post-match with Strong, Taven and Bennett who are supposed to be heels but are rooting for O\u2019Reilly. I wonder if this is leading to Strong proving his friendship by offering O\u2019Reilly an International Title match at the Dynasty PPV.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014Lexi Nair interviewed Deonna Purrazzo and Thunder Rosa backstage.\u00a0Nair brought up how Purrazzo and Rosa haven\u2019t teamed before. Purrazzo spoke about her and Rosa fighting each other. She said she trusts Rosa. She said she should be AEW Women\u2019s World Champion if it wasn\u2019t for Luther and Mariah May. Rosa brought up she never lost the AEW Women\u2019s World Title either. She said she is ready to show May and Storm drama. They are ready to face May and Storm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(7) HOUSE OF BLACK (Buddy Matthews &amp; Brodie King) (w\/Julia Hart) vs. THE INFANTRY (Charlie Bravo &amp; Shawn Dean) \u2014 AEW World Tag Team Tournament Wild Card Match<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>King and Matthews attacked Dean and Bravo before the match began. The match got underway as King rocked Bravo with a running cannonball but Dean made the save. [c]<\/p>\n<p>Bravo caught Matthews with a rollup for two count as they returned from break. Dean got the tag. Dean went for a flying clothesline but fell off the ropes. Dean quickly followed up planting Matthew with a backdrop suplex. King tagged in. King rocked Dean with a running clothesline. Bravo entered the match. Matthews nailed Bravo with a knee strike. King planted Dean with Dante\u2019s Inferno but Bravo made the save. King dumped Bravo onto the announcer\u2019s table. King planted Bravo with a Piledriver onto the announcer\u2019s table. Buddy delivered a Curb Stomp to Dean. Matthews had the match won but stopped the count. Mark Briscoe appeared whacking Matthews with a chair. King chased Briscoe through the crowd. Dean covered Matthews for the win.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS:\u00a0Charlie Bravo &amp; Shawn Dean in 7:43.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Amin\u2019s Thoughts:\u00a0You figured once they showed the brackets for the tournament. The Infantry would win this match and face FTR after last week\u2019s promo between the two teams on Collision. House of Black were mostly squashing Infantry until Mark Briscoe got involved. This didn\u2019t get me interested in seeing the tag match with FTR after The Infantry just got a fluke win.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014Here comes Adam Copeland to a strong reaction. He came out carrying a case with his \u201cSPIKE\u201d written on it. He thanked the crowd for the ovation. He spoke about the last time he wrestled in Ottawa and wasn\u2019t sure he was going to perform there again. He thanked the crowd for giving him another memory. He brought up how he wasn\u2019t sure if he was going to wrestle in Toronto again. The crowd booed. He mentioned that it was his hometown.<\/p>\n<p>He said it\u2019s fitting he\u2019s facing someone who he thought was his best friend for 40 years. He sat on a chair. He said he&#8217;s calling him by Christian Cage. He said \u201cJay\u201d was dead. He spoke about being best friends with Cage before getting into this industry. He said it was this industry that cemented this industry. He thought they would still be friends after they left the industry.<\/p>\n<p>He spoke about Cage being onboard with him coming to AEW. He said didn\u2019t come here to take the spotlight from Cage. He spoke about failing at World&#8217;s End. He spoke about picking himself back up. He spoke about having the Cope Open and earning his way back to a TNT Title match. He brought up how Cage took him out with a Conchairto.<\/p>\n<p>He spoke about getting a phone call from someone. He said that person reminded him about how he was. He said he took some cues from another \u201cSociopath.\u201d He said they created Barbie and Janice. He pulled out a board with nails sticking out. He said he created Spike. He said the phone call from \u201cMrs. Foley\u2019s Baby Boy\u201d made him remember he\u2019s the Rated R Superstar.\u00a0He said after Wednesday Cage would be in the hospital. He said he was going to take away his manhood. He said he\u2019s going to make Cage say two words. He screamed \u201cI QUIT\u201d He said after 40 years in their hometown it ends.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Amin\u2019s Thoughts: A strong intense promo from Copeland setting up the TNT Title match with Cage on Dynamite. I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if Copeland screaming I Quit leads to Cage finding a way to keep the TNT Title.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>FINAL THOUGHTS:<\/strong> It was really fun getting to see Danielson and Shibata wrestle each other. It was also great to see Kyle O&#8217;Reilly back in action. Copeland delivered a strong promo setting up the I Quit match with Cage for Dynamite. Overall, this was a good episode of Collision.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-2933093662\"><div id=\"pwtor-813025344\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>AEW COLLISION REPORT MARCH 16, 2024 OTTAWA, ONT.
