AEW Collision Tailgate Brawl
Tony Schiavone, Nigel McGuinness, and Matt Menard are on the call from the ScotiaBank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada!
Match #1. The Opps vs. The WorkHorsemen
Anthony Henry gets bodyslammed by Powerhouse Hobbs about six times. Seven. JD Drake pulls Henry’s leg and saves him, so Hobbs body slams him! Jabs to a seated Drake, followed by a PK and a senton. Two count. Hobbs runs through a double clothesline and takes out both WorkHorsemen. Clothesline in the corner to Drake. To Henry. To both. Forever clotheslines by Hobbs before depleting Henry with a big lariat. Enziguiri in the corner by Joe to Drake. Joe wants the Muscle Buster to Drake, but Drake boots him off. Drake tries a dropkick and Joe walks away. Lol. Joe locks in the choke as Hobbs spinebusters Henry. Drake taps!
Winner: The Opps
Rating: *1/2. Barely more than an enhancement match here. Man, I wish The WorkHorsemen got some more TV time.
Match #2. Daniel Garcia vs. Katsuyori Shibata
Shibata starts the match with a running boot to the face. Garcia retreats to the outside and Shibata follows him, throwing him into everything that isn’t nailed down. Running boot in the corner by Shibata, as Garcia is trapped on a chair between guard rails. Back in the ring, Shibata focuses the attack on the knee, following up with a figure four. Garcia rolls his way to the outside, where Shibata follows, only to get DDT’d on the floor. Daddy Magic leaves the commentary table and Garcia won’t even look at him. Garcia wedges Shibata’s head between the ringpost and the steel steps and drop kicks it. Backdrop suplex by Garcia back in the ring. Shibata is up! One by Shibata. Garcia. Shibata. Garcia. Shibata. Finally, Garcia buckles and Shibata delivers some chops in the corner and a running dropkick. Double underhook suplex by Shibata gets two. Straight armbar by Shibata not but Garcia blocks it. Shibata transitions to a triangle choke but Garcia gets to the ropes. Death Valley Driver on the apron by Shibata! Commercial break. 12-6 elbows by Shibata back inside the ring. Garcia rolls through and delivers some elbows of his own, before locking in a Boston crab. Sweep by Shibata, right into a straight ankle lock! Garcia gets free and we get to another commercial. We’re back now as both guys drop each other with a pair of palm strikes. Now it’s an elbow party and everyone is invited. Garcia locks in a guillotine and transitions to a piledriver! Two count. Another piledriver! One count! Shibata is up! Shibata stumbles, but it’s a ripcord palm strike right into the rear naked choke! Garcia rolls through, Shibata back in control. Marina Shafir gets on the apron and Shibata breaks the grip. Gotch style piledriver by Garcia! Garcia channels his inner Super Dragon and stomps the face of Shibata with a leg lace. This one’s over.
Winner: Daniel Garcia
Rating: ***1/2. Quite enjoyed this match, despite the two commercial breaks. I understand Shibata’s role in AEW but it still hurts. That said, bad guy Garcia is pretty cool so far.
Match #3. Hologram & The Paragon vs. The Frat House
Frat House attack early but it doesn’t last long. Strong X-Plexes Holgoram on to Griff Garrison! Kyle is in with a strike combo to Garrison. Spanish Fly by Hoogram to Jameson, and a rising knee by Roddy. High/low to Garrison and a springboard footstomp from Hologram. That’ll do it.
Winners: Hologram & The Paragon
Rating: NR. That was quick.
Kyle O’Reilly seems to have softened Roddy up to Hologram, as they all embrace after the match.
Match #4. Tornado Tailgate Eight-Man Tag: Triangle of Madness, Penelope Ford, & Megan Bayne vs. Mina Shirakawa, Queen Aminata, Willow Nightingale, & Harley Cameron
The good guys come out and set up like a football team, shoulder blocking the Bane and crew. Megan Bayne throws Penelope Ford on to everyone on the floor. Willow runs through Ford and Blue, as she stares down Megan Bayne as both women exchange some heavy leather. Quadruple suplex by Willow and the crew, as everyone heads outside. There’s plunder everywhere, so I guess the theme here is tailgate supplies. Aminata and Ford fight using ladles and tongs. Commercial time. Willow sets up some coolers in the middle of the ring and puts Julia Hart on the top rope. Skye Blue hits her from behind and tries, to, no, does, powerbomb her on the coolers. Cameron breaks up the pin at two. Aminata and Mina hit people with coolers, before Chocolate Kisses to Hart. Twisting splash by Mina gets two. Blue sets a trash can on Harley Cameron and throws everyone into it. Handspring back elbow by Ford to the trash can. Body slam by Bayne and Ford moonsaults off of Bayne’s back for a two count. Aminata and Mina hit Bayne with a beerpong table. Double gordbuster, kind of, to Cameron by the Sisters of Sin. Aminata and Mina pulls the SOS out and throw them into the guard rail, before hitting them with the Weber Grill. Willow hits Ford with the garbage can and finishes this one with the Babe with the Powerbomb.
Winners: Mina Shirakawa, Queen Aminata, Willow Nightingale, & Harley Cameron
Rating: *1/2. Just uh, let’s just… get to the PPV.
Final Thoughts: Wouldn’t have left such a bad taste in my mouth if Shibata and Garcia was the main event here, but this wasn’t a very good hour of wrestling. Two squash matches, a mess in the main event, but a good technical match in-between. 5.5/10.
