AT CANADIAN TIRE CENTRE<br \/>\nAIRED LIVE ON TNT<br \/>\nREPORT BY BRIAN ZILEM PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR<\/h3>\n<p><em>Commentators: Tony Schiavone, Nigel McGuiness<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>-Tony Schiavone welcomed everyone to the show<\/p>\n<p><strong>(1) BRYAN DANIELSON vs. KATSUYORI SHIBATA<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian&#8217;s Thoughts: I was shocked that this match opened at the show. I assumed this match would have main eventted the show.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>When the match started, Nigel reviewed the head injuries to Danielson and Shibata throughout their history in wrestling. The match started slowly as both men wanted to feel each other out; Danielson started to work on Shibata\u2019s knees. Shibata finally got in his first bit of offense with foreman shots directly to Danielson\u2019s face. After brawling to the corner, both men exchanged chops to the chest in the middle shortly after Danielson regained the advantage of the match. Shibata recovered and nailed Danielson with a running P.K. kick as the show went to its first commercial back of the night. [c]<\/p>\n<p>After the break, Danielson hit a shotgun dropkick onto Shibata. Both men then exchanged chops and kicks in the corner of the ring. Shibata landed a suplex and got a near fall. Both men exchanged angle lock attempts until Danielson hit a suplex, followed by an STO by Shibata. As Danielson laid in, kicks Shibata out of nowhere hit a DVD for only a near fall. Shibata went for the Rainmaker closeline, but Danielson countered and hit Busaiku Knee for a near fall. Danielson didn\u2019t waste time and locked in the Lebell Lock, but Shibata got to the ropes to break up the submission attempt. In the match\u2019s closing moments, both men exchanged kicks in the middle of the ring. After a flurry of pin attempts and reversals, Danielson was able to pin Shibata for the pinfall victory.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Bryan Danielson in 19:07<\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian\u2019s Thoughts: The Bryan Danielson dream match tour continues. Unfortunately, AEW didn\u2019t get more time to promote this match. I wanted to see if this match had moved more tickets for the show with a few more days\u2019 notice, but with Visa issues coming up, it was out of AEW\u2019s hands. Nonetheless, this was a very good wrestling match.)<\/em><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1818078354\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>-A recap of Mercedes Mone\u2019s debut from AEW Big Bussiness was shown.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(2) JULIA HART vs. TRISH ADORA \u2014 TBS Title Open House Match<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Before the match started, commentary confirmed that the loser of this match would not be allowed ringside for the main event. Adora looked sharp to start the match. Adora put Hart into a leg submission and pinned her for a near fall. Both women fought on the outside, and Hart threw Adora against the barricade as the show went to a commercial. [c]<\/p>\n<p>The show returned from break with both women brawling in the middle of the ring. Adora nailed Hart with a closeline and got a near fall. In the match\u2019s closing moments, Hart hit a superkick and moonsault to secure the pinfall victory to retain the TBS Title.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Julia Hart in 7:40 to retain the TBS Title.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian\u2019s Thoughts: There was very little heat for this match, but I thought it was a good match for Hart to sharpen out the edges as she continues to grow as a singles act.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-After the match, the show went backstage with Lexi Nair, Zak Knight, and Harley Cameron. Knight said he would not fight Cool Angelo Parker in Canada but only on his terms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(3) DANIEL GARCIA vs. LEE MORIARTY (w\/Shane Taylor)<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-3235161371\" 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>Daddy Magic joined the commentary team to call the match. The match started fast, with both men getting in each other\u2019s faces. To get the early advantage, Garcia fired away with chops and a shotgun dropkick. With Taylor\u2019s help, Moriarty could dive onto Garcia to take back the momentum. Garcia later fired up and started working Moriarty\u2019s knee. In the closing moments of the match, Moriarty hit a double stomp, but Garica was able to get Moriarty to the ground and lock in a heel hook submission to secure the submission victory.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:WINNER: Daniel Garcia in 5:10.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian\u2019s Thoughts: I would have liked this to go another five minutes. These two men have another gear in them. I always appreciate Garcia\u2019s attention to detail whenever he works on body parts to set up his opponent for a submission.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-After a commercial break, a recap video was shown with Jay White and Darby Allin. An update was shown: Allin broke his foot during his match this past Wednesday against White.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(4) PAC vs. AARON SOLO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Solo hit Pac early and nailed a dive to the outside. Solo got a pin attempt against Pac, but only at one. The fans in attendance were very into Pac. In the closing moments, Pac made quick work of Solo by landing the Black Arrow and then locking in The Brutalizer to secure the submission victory for the match.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Pac in 3:30.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian\u2019s Thoughts: A good way to showcase Pac back into the fold.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-The post-match Pac grabbed a mic and told Tony Khan he was looking for trouble. He said Tony Khan could either find Pac trouble or find it himself.<\/p>\n<p>-The show went backstage with Bryan Danielson meditating. Danielson expressed his gratitude for getting to wrestle Shibata on Collision. He expressed his gratitude for the upcoming matchup with Will Ospreay. Danielson commented on Ospreay\u2019s remarks. He talked about how, in the ring, he mimics Danielson. He declared that it was \u201clive or die\u201d for Ospreay in the ring. He said Ospreay can\u2019t walk in his shoes. He added that because they were informed they would not be allowed to wrestle again, Ospreay cannot walk in either his or Shibata\u2019s shoes.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian\u2019s Thoughts: There\u2019s not much needed to hype up this dream match against Danielson and Ospreay, but this was an excellent promo from Danielson.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>(5) CLAUDIO CASTAGNOLI vs. LANCE ARCHER<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The match started with both men charging and running into each other like two bulls. The fans cheered \u201cMeat!&#8221; during the interactions between Castagnoli and Archer. After a few power move exchanges, both men brawled on the outside. Archer landed a cannonball dive onto Castagnoli as the show went to a commercial break. [c]<\/p>\n<p>After the break, Archer remained in control. Archer called for a DDT, but Castagnoli countered with a suplex. Archer went for the Undertaker rope walk, but Castagnoli was able to reserve the move and nailed Archer with a European uppercut. After brawling back on the outside, Archer hit a chokeslam for a close near fall. After hitting several European uppercuts, Castagnoli hit a diving cutter for a near fall. In the match\u2019s closing moments, Castagnoli locked in the giant swing, but the Righteous came down to attack Castagnoli, and the match was called for a D.Q.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Claudio Castagnoli in 11:10 via DQ.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian\u2019s Thoughts: The match was big, dumb fun. I\u2019m not a fan of this match, but it\u2019s just a fixture to set up a six-person tag match, but that is a basic wrestling trope.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Lexi Nair conducted backstage interviews with Ruby Soho and Angelo Parker. According to Parker, his childhood home is located about an hour and a half away from Ottawa, Canada. He said that Ottawa was his second home. He said he was prepared for a brawl. Soho told Parker to unwind. Parker declared he would go looking for a fight. Soho stated that\u2019s precisely what they want.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(6) KYLE O\u2019REILLY vs. BRIAN KEITH<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Before the match started, commentators did a great job of recapping O\u2019Reiliy\u2019s health struggles over the last few years. It took a few minutes to get going, but O\u2019Reilly eventually got his feet under him. Both men exchanged strikes in the middle of the ring with chops and kicks. Keith nailed O\u2019Reilly with a DDT as the show went on a commercial break. [c]<\/p>\n<p>After the break, Keith was working on O\u2019Reilly\u2019s neck. O\u2019Reilly rallied with a jawbreaker and kicked Keith. O\u2019Reilly went to the top rope to attempt his diving knee drop, but Keith countered with a jumping shoulder block and two jumping knees for a close near fall. In the match\u2019s closing moments, O\u2019Reilly hit a Jon Moxley bottom rope rebound lariat, a brainbuster, and locked in an armbar to secure the submission victory.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Kyle O\u2019Reilly in 11:20<\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian\u2019s Thoughts: Seeing O\u2019Reilly back in an AEW ring is great. With this stacked roster, I\u2019m not sure what his ceiling is as a singles guy, but I\u2019m hopeful he can crave a path to the singles title at some point. )<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014Backstage, Lexi Nair conducted interviews with Thunder Rosa and Deonna Purrazzo. Nair brought up the fact that Purrazzo and Rosa have never collaborated. Purrazzo mentioned an altercation with Rosa. Rosa has her trust, she said. If it weren\u2019t for Luther and Mariah May, she would be AEW Women\u2019s World Champion. Rosa mentioned that she also won the AEW Women\u2019s World Title and never lost it. She said she was prepared to present the drama between May and Storm and was all set to take on Storm and May.<\/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>Before the match started, King and Matthews attacked Dean and Bravo. Once the match started, King hit a cannonball on Bravo, and the show went on a commercial break. [c]<\/p>\n<p>Bravo captured Matthews with a rollup for two counts when the show returned from break. Dean picked up the tag. Dean attempted a soaring clothesline but lost his balance on the ropes. Dean immediately followed up by backdrop suplexing Matthew. King connected. King used a running clothesline to rock Dean. Bravo came into the fight. Matthews delivered a devastating knee to Bravo. Bravo saved the day after King tried to put Dante\u2019s Inferno on Dean. King threw Bravo onto the announcer\u2019s table. Using a Piledriver, King pushed Bravo onto the announcer\u2019s table.<\/p>\n<p>King used a Piledriver to force Bravo onto the announcer\u2019s table. Buddy stomped Dean on the curb. Though Matthews halted the count, he had won the match. Mark Briscoe showed up and started hitting Matthews with a chair. King followed Briscoe around the fans Dean won the match by covering Matthews.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: Charlie Bravo &amp; Shawn Dean in 7:40.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian\u2019s Thoughts: What an upset win! I didn\u2019t think that Bravo and Dean would win this match at all. Way to keep everyone on their toes, AEW.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-A hype video was shown for the I Quit match Copeland vs Cage for the TNT title.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ADAM COPELAND PROMO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Copeland received a great reaction from the fans as he walked down to the ring with a giant box. Copeland mentioned he and the city of Ottawa have a lot of history.<\/p>\n<p>Copeland said it makes sense that he is going up against a man he has considered his best friend for 40 years. He took a seat in a chair. He introduced himself as Christian Cage. \u201cJay\u201d was dead, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Copeland mentioned that Cage was supportive of him visiting AEW. He said he didn\u2019t come there to steal Christian\u2019s limelight. He discussed his failure at World\u2019s End. He talked about getting back up. He talked about winning the Cope Open and regaining his right to compete for the TNT Title. He mentioned how Christian had taken him out on a Conchairto.<\/p>\n<p>Copeland mentioned receiving a call from an unknown caller. He claimed that the individual brought up memories of himself. He claimed that another \u201cSociopath\u201d had given him some advice. He claimed that they made Janice and Barbie. He produced a board that had protruding nails. \u201cI made Spike,\u201d he claimed. He claimed that he was reminded of his status as the Rated-R Superstar by the phone call from \u201cMrs. Foley\u2019s Baby Boy.\u201d He stated that Christian would be admitted to the hospital on Wednesday. He threatened to strip him of his manhood. He threatened to force Christian to utter two syllables. He cried out, \u201cI quit.\u201d He stated that it finishes in their hometown after 40 years.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Brian\u2019s Thoughts: AEW doesn\u2019t often close a show with a promo, but this was an excellent way to build up the TNT title match against Cage and Copeland this Wednesday.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>FINAL THOUGHTS:<\/strong> Some matches were more fluff and fixtures than others, but there were still some good things to like about this episode.
