Mike Santana speaks.
Formerly just “Santana,” Mike sets up a chair to take a seat. “So to understand this story, I have to take you back to the very beginning of when I walked into this place.” Video footage reminds us of when he and Ortiz, wearing masks based on former presidents, shoved the Lucha Brothers off a ladder! “Four months after making my debut here, my dad passed away. And that caused a whirlwind that was determined to knock me off my feet. And guess what? It pretty much did. It caused a closet full of skeletons I kept locked up in the trenches of my mind to burst wide open. Everything that I worked hard to eliminate and get rid of and run from, it came crashing right in front of me.
“Fast-forward two and a half years later. Through anger and discontent and unhappiness, every negative word that you can imagine, I stepped foot into the dreaded Blood & Guts match, on June 29th, 2022. And on that day, my career came to a screeching halt.” Footage of that match points out when Santana went down with a leg injury. Everything Santana dedicated his life to was taken from him. Everything he has been through has produced the man that sits before you today. “Come take a walk on this journey with me. I got a story to tell.”
El Hijo del Vikingo & Nick Wayne VS Kip Sabian & Gringo Loco w/ Penelope Ford!
The AAA Mega Champion returns, and he’s teaming up with the young man who helped Darby Allin & Sting win the Tag Team Coffin Match, even though he almost got mauled by Luchasaurus.

It’s an all new edition of QTV.
But speaking of, Harley Cameron asks Aaron Solo where QT Marshall even is right now. No idea, QT didn’t turn his Read Receipts on. Johnny TV is here, lounging right behind them. And Johnny’s in charge while QT’s away defending that AAA Latin American Championship! Check out the footage. QT makes his entrance at a Progress Wrestling show in the UK, successfully hitting a piledriver and defending said title. And Johnny says this is the first time he’s been here, live and in person, on the QTV set! “And we all know how much Tony Khan loves first-time-evers.”
So what scoops does the team have for Johnny? Solo says at All In, Wembley Stadium, in front of over 80 THOUSAND people, Sammy Guevara finally got his big “push.” He gives Harley a playful push, and she says she heard Daniel Garcia stole his dance moves from Brittney Spears. Oh, those ones? Johnny says no, guys, they need dirtier dirt! Like sludge, mud, the good stuff! Stuff like this! Johnny flings his drink, Solo ducks, and Harley gets covered in coffee! Now that Johnny’s in charge, there’s gonna be big changes around here! Harley says Johnny’s good. And with their help, Johnny could be the best! What moves will JTV make while QT’s away?
Hangman Page VS Bryan Keith!
The Anxious Millennial Cowboy and his team ended up on the losing end at All In, but he hopes to rebound with a Rampage! However, “The Bounty Hunter” has said he’s been on a rampage of his own. And he’s here for “a whole lotta Cowboy Sh*t!” Will he be able to wrangle one of The Elite? Or will this be one bounty he doesn’t collect?
The bell rings and fans rally for the “COWBOY SH*T!” but Bryan shows off as he whirls his poncho away. Hangman nods, the two step to each other, and fans fire up. Hangman and Bryan square up, tie up, and Bryan puts Hangman on the ropes. The ref counts, Bryan lets off, but then he CHOPS! Hangman snarls, Bryan swings but misses and Hangman headlocks.

Backstage interview with Daniel Garcia, Matthew Menard & Angelo Parker.
Renee Paquette is with the former Jericho Appreciation Society members, and brings up their Trios match on Collision, where they will be challenging The Acclaimed & Billy Gunn for the AEW World Trios Championships. What is the plan heading into a match of this magnitude? Parker says the plan is simple: the last year and a half, these three have taken a backseat to make sure Chris Jericho was successful. But here’s a question for everyone else: “What do we have to show for it? We got a big, heapin’, steamin’, stinkin’ pile of NOTHIN’!” Menard repeats “NOTHIN’!”
On the biggest show of pro-wrestling history, the three of them were sitting at home! NO MORE! Time these three got back to doing what they do best! And Garcia says what they do best is returning home. These three as one, that’s home. This is how they started, this is how they’ll finish. Garcia is thinking that maybe they were better off without those leather pants. Maybe they were better off with trunks, and better off being professional w- Menard has Garcia hold on there. None of that matters! Jericho? Doesn’t matter! All In? All Out? DOESN’T MATTER! The only thing that matters is that Saturday Night Collision, these three right here are going to the Promised Land! How d’ya like that!?
Garcia does his dance and Parker says Renee should dance along. Take a look! But whether they’re pro-wrestlers or sports… enner-tay-ners… Will Garcia, Menard & Parker be champions after Saturday?
Renee Paquette has a sit-down interview with Roderick Strong.
She thanks him for taking this time, and wants to get right to it. She would love to know what Roddy’s thoughts and motivations were, when in the main event of AEW All In London, Wembley Stadium- Roddy says all that is between him and Adam Cole. Oh, okay. But this still affects a lot of other people, like- Roddy repeats that this is between him and Adam. Adam knows what he’s done. And what does that mean? “It means that Adam knows what he did, and if you don’t know what that is, I can’t help you.”
Renee understands Roddy is in a tough spot right now but she doesn’t appreciate him wanting this time only to say nothing. Well Roddy doesn’t appreciate that Renee is sitting here questioning him like he’s on trial! Roddy will tell his own story on his own time, his own way. Roddy sighs, and says no, this is done. He takes his mic off, tells Renee to ask Adam questions about this, since she’s so~ concerned. Roddy leaves with Matt Taven & Mike Bennett, where will this issue with their former friend end?
BREAKING NEWS for Collision!
Ricky Starks mentioned a bigger strap for next time, so he wants a STRAP MATCH at All Out! And against Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat?! After what he did to the living legend last time, he really thinks this is going to go his way? Plus: the AEW World Trios Championships, Acclaimed & Billy VS Garcia, Menard & Parker; Dax Harwood VS Jay White 1v1 before the big 8 Man Tag at All Out; and The Outcasts see if they can still work together against Kris Statlander, Britt Baker & Hikaru Shida!

My Thoughts:
A really good Rampage here, especially as a go-home to All Out. The tag team battle royal opening was a fine choice, as AEW always does a good job writing these. I did not think it’d be The Dark Order winning out, but when it came down to it, I figured Aussie Open wasn’t winning because it’d make their loss at All In mean even less than it already does. Still feels like a missed opportunity for The Kingdom to challenge MJF & Cole, adding to the story of Cole and his many friendships, but after Roddy’s passive aggressive promo here tonight, maybe he and The Kingdom screw MJF & Cole out of those ROH Tag titles.
What an interesting move having Aussie Open going after Jericho on commentary. It’s not like Ospreay lost at All In, they should just leave Jericho alone. But the confrontation escalated, now we’re probably getting Le Sex Gods VS Aussie Open on Dynamite as part of Jericho’s story with Sammy. And really good promo from former JAS members ahead of their Trios title match. But if Moxley wasn’t a Heel, I would’ve said Garcia should be careful dancing like that at Moxley’s wife, Renee, or the BCC would be coming after them. I did like Garcia wanting to say he’s a pro-wrestler but getting cut off, maybe they spark that story up again soon.
Great filler tag of Vikingo & Nick Wayne VS Gringo & Kip, though I wonder if it was supposed to be Darby & Nick as a tune-up for All Out. It’s been reported, and the commentary even partly confirmed, that Darby’s back feels real bad after All In. Though, duh, he did a Coffin Drop right onto the lid of a “solid iron casket,” which given that it dented was probably more aluminum or some other slightly lesser metal. But still, doing the many falls Darby’s done, I’m surprised he hasn’t felt beat up before this. Hopefully he or someone close to him helps him realize to do less of those nasty “missed Coffin Drop” spots so he can keep going.
Also good filler singles match of Hangman VS The Bounty Hunter. Bryan seems to be in good shape, he has a handle on this character, maybe we see more of him in the near future. And really good tag match in the main event with Skye & Willow naturally winning given Skye’s the hometown hero and AEW actually likes hometown heroes winning. Taya going after Skye after could lead to a 1v1 feud of their own, and there are still lots of possibilities when it comes to the AEW Women’s World and AEW TBS Championships. Willow as the 2023 Queen of Harts, I’d love for her to step up to Saraya should Shida detour into a feud with Britt. And Skye has beef with Ruby Soho, so if Ruby takes the TBS title off Kris, Skye could move right up as a challenger to Ruby.
My Score: 8.7/10

Parking Lot Brawl: Trent Beretta VS Chuck Taylor!
Years of friendship, thrown away, and why? Because #JustTrent had a problem with Freshly Squeezed having more success in AEW than them? Because #JustTrent had a problem with Cassidy as a person? Because #JustTrent turned out to be the selfish one in the relationship? Well, then will #JustTrent get his ass kicked? Or will he take advantage of how Chuckie T. is a Kentucky Gentleman?

Trent stalks Chuck, brings him around and SMACKS him with the trash can lid! Trent hoists Chuck onto a car roof, SMACKS him again, then goes back to the truck. Trent climbs onto the roof of the truck, to FLYING ELBOW from car to car! Cover, TWO!!
Trent is furious, but Chuck is still in this as Rampage goes picture in picture.
Trent fumes, paces around, and goes back to the goodies. He brings out… Is that a screwdriver?! And he JABS Chuck in the head with it!! And then he DIGS it into Chuck’s forehead!! As if he wasn’t already bleeding badly!! Trent leaves Chuck behind, to fetch what looks to be a flat screen TV. Then he brings out a wood door!? Did someone visit Home Depot before coming here?

Chuck takes a piece of that drywall to SMASH it on Trent! Chuck gets that trash can, he SMACKS Trent with it! Chuck sees the pile of extra goodies nearby, and he uncovers some light tubes! But first, he’ll clean up the mess, he SMACKS Trent with the dust pan! And SMACKS him again and again! And then one more shot with the trash can! Trent writhes, but Chuck drags Trent up.

Trent writhes while fans chant “HOLY CHUCK!” Chuck covers Trent on the hood, TWO!! Trent survives and hurries around the back of this sedan. Chuck snarls, goes up after Trent, and they meet on the roof. They’re both so bloody as they fire forearms back and forth!
The crowd cheers Chuck and boos Trent, and as the two swing wild, they end up HUGGING! You GOT to give the people what they want, right? They stand, Chuck ROCKS Trent and reels Trent in, but Trent LOW BLOWS!! Trent has Chuck now, PILEDRIVER ON THE CAR ROOF!!! And then, SNAKE BITE!! Trent is choking Chuck out!!! Chuck IS out, Trent wins!!
Winner: Trent Beretta, by submission
The Best Friends tore each other apart, but it is #JustTrent that stands tall in the end. He’s clearly lost the respect of his peers given how the other wrestlers are chanting “You Suck! You Suck!” But wait, Trent isn’t done? He has a monkey wrench!? Cassidy & Kris step forward to say no, this is going too far! Trent says this is all Cassidy’s fault! And SMASH, Trent hits Chuck’s leg with the wrench, and even shatters the glass behind it!! Chuck clutches the already recovering leg, and now Cassidy wants after Trent! Kris stops Cassidy, Trent’s still got the wrench! Trent escapes into the shadows of the arena, what darkness is living in Trent’s heart?
Don Callis is watching this.
And he seems to like the sadistic savagery he just witnessed. Trent may not have Best Friends anymore, but could he end up with a whole new family?
Backstage interview with Kyle O’Reilly.

Well, on Saturday, May 11th, AEW is coming to his hometown! Collision in Vancouver, British Columbia! The Rogers Arena, the same building an 11-year-old Kyle saw his first wrestling show ever. And at that show, Kyle told his dad that he was gonna do this one day.

Backstage interview with The Undisputed Kingdom.
Arkady Aura is with Roderick Strong, Matt Taven & Mike Bennett as she notes Will Ospreay is the NEW #1 Contender to the AEW International Championship. Taven says hold on, before we get started here, “Not Lexy,” as three guys who care deeply about neck health, and as two guys who nursed someone from the brink of paralysis (aka Roddy), The Kingdom wishes a very speedy recovery to “the world’s greatest boss. TK, stay strong, buddy.” Roddy then shouts that “WILL… Ospreay. Congratulations, you did it! You have signed, sealed and delivered the downfall, demise and destruction of The Aerial Assassin at Double or Nothing.”
Roddy says the world can sing Ospreay’s praises, but none of that matters when you step in the ring with Roddy. Just like all the ones before, Roddy will dismantle Ospreay, he will BREAK Ospreay, and he will make Ospreay fall in front of The Savior of the Backbreaker. Roddy’s confidence is strong, but will Roddy be the one feeling the End of Heartache after taking on the #BillyGOAT?
“Big Bill” Morrissey VS Trevor Blackwell!
The human skyscraper says he wants to sit under the Learning Tree, but Chris Jericho’s gonna need a bigger tree if he’s to give guidance to Big Bill. Will Bill prove he is worthy of The Wizard’s sage advice?

Winner: “Big Bill” Morrissey, by pinfall
Trev might want to change his last name to Well-done, because he got roasted. Bill wants Jericho’s guidance, does he even need it when he can do all this?

Will this momentum help Shibata avenge Hook and take that FTW Championship off of Chris Jericho? Or will The Learning Tree have some things to teach Shibata?
My Thoughts:
A great Rampage here, though I was oddly more excited when I thought it was just Deonna VS Rosa and the Parking Lot Brawl. But even so, at least Bill squashing a dude was used in story. He was showing off, he’ll surely have Jericho’s blessing if he helps defeat Shibata on Dynamite, but a part of me almost wants this to be all a trap. Bill was teammates with Ricky Starks in a feud against Jericho, and if Jericho is being obliviously arrogant then maybe Bill is using that against Jericho, too. But either way, let’s just hope this story helps Bill get going rather than slow him down like the #JerichoVortex has always done.
The Parking Lot Brawl was moving maybe a bit fast for me, especially with how there were some obvious spots already set up when they arrived, such as the drywall draped across the truck bed. But they surely got bloody, and in the end, Trent won out because he was willing to sink to the lowest low. And then they’ve written Chuck off again with that monkey wrench to the shin, so Cassidy VS Trent is definitely a Double or Nothing match. And something is just telling me that if Kris is gonna turn out to be the villain in the Willow Nightingale story, she’s probably gonna screw Cassidy over to help Trent, too.
Really good match from Deonna VS Rosa, and with Rosa getting a quick pin then that brawl, we’re clearly getting more out of them. Good promo from Kyle O’Reilly to hype AEW’s newest Canada tour, and good promo from The Kingdom to tie in their old Neck Health Awareness gag to the Tony Khan piledriver angle. Roddy calling out Ospreay, I would definitely think Ospreay wins the title at Double or Nothing. And really good tag main event from Shibata & Garcia VS Shane Taylor Promotions. STP keeps getting great showings even in losing, but Lee took the loss here to keep Shane himself strong. Great win for Shibata but this just adds to the go-home math where Jericho retains the FTW Championship on Dynamite.
My Score: 8.7/10

PLAY BY PLAY
Swerve Strickland is here!
Prince Nana again leads the way as the NEW AEW World Champion makes his way out here. The Realest opened Dynamite with a win, but he walks back out to Daily’s Place to stand in the ring to finally acknowledge his victory at Dynasty. Nana says, “Ladies and gentlemen, the man standing in front of you today is the Boss of Bosses! The man standing in front of you today is the Anointed One in Professional Wrestling! The man standing in front of you is one hell of a wrestler. And he’s none other than the AEW World Heavyweight Champion, Swerve Strickland!” The fans cheer and chant, “Thank You, Swerve!”
Swerve says what a week we’ve had here in AEW! Let’s run it down: a NEW TBS Champion in Willow Nightingale; by the grace of God, Adam Cole can walk; Adam Copeland got misted in the face by The House of Black; Will Ospreay and Bryan Danielson tore the house down; and then… Jack Perry returned. The fans boo but Swerve says Jack’s back in AEW, and he struck Tony Khan, the founder of AEW, who put his faith in Swerve. On top of that, The EVPs, the Young Bucks are again the AEW World Tag Team Champions, and they hit Tony Khan with the whatever it is driver, and now TK is in a neck brace and who knows when we’ll see him in healthy condition.
Now, Swerve will be the first to tell everyone, he’s done some horrible things. Once, twice, three, four times. But something about four elite athletes beating down a non-fighter in TK, that sounds like a b*tch move to him. The fans echo “B*TCH MOVE!” but Swerve wants to get to business. The most important thing that happened this week is Swerve went into Dynasty and he made history by dethroning Samoa Joe and becoming the NEW AEW World Champion! Now, a pet peeve of his is those going around calling themselves “Best in the World.” But make no mistake, the Best in the World is the one holding this title right here!
Last week, it was Samoa Joe. This week, it’s Swerve, baby. And Swerve got here by fighting, but also by making sacrifices. Swerve says the night he won this title, he went to his daughter. She said, “Dad, I love you, I’m so proud of you. But I feel like I just don’t know you.” That hit Swerve to his core. His relationship with his children is everything. But he’s missed birthdays, holidays, basketball games, dance recitals, Father-Daughter dances, and he can’t make up for lost time. But what he can do is set the example and blaze a trail, to make sure this was all worth it. The fans cheer that!
Swerve continues by saying AEW has set people in front of him and he’s knocked them all down! Kyle Fletcher was just one. Now, how about an Open Challenge for the AEW World Championship? But only to someone who really wants to fight! So how about it, Jacksonville? We’re entering a new era in AEW, the Dynasty Era! And the elite of that era is whose house? “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” But then here comes Claudio Castagnoli! The Swiss Superman is in a suit, not his gear, but he does get in the ring. Claudio circles Swerve, then takes the mic and holds up a finger. The fans still chant, but Claudio says, “You’re on.”
Swerve says see you later tonight then, in whose house? But then Claudio snatches the mic again! “It’s gonna be mine.” The fans are intrigued but Claudio is looking to end Swerve’s Dynasty the same week it started! Will the Swiss Superman bring even more gold to the Blackpool Combat Club?
Tony Khan has a medical update.
He is feeling grateful and blessed that he can still walk, talk and work, as was seen during the NFL Draft with Tony Khan alongside his father, Shahid, in the Jacksonville Jaguars war room. However, the doctors have advised TK not to travel, so he will be monitoring AEW Dynamite in Winnipeg remotely. Will that mean The EVPs will be in control of things in person this Wednesday…?
Unified AEW & ROH World Trios Championships: Bullet Club Gold VS Top Flight!

On the other, we have the undefeated Professor, the obvious #1 contender. After everything Deeb’s been through, how hard she had to fight to get back here, failure is not an option. It is now or never!
And after four years of being told how great she is, and how she SHOULD be champion, it is time to prove it. It is time to accomplish something she has yet to do, and that is become THE AEW Women’s World Champion. Deeb tells Storm this isn’t a movie, this is real-life.

Arkady is now with The Wrestler, and she brings up the issues with Shane Taylor Promotions. But at the same time, he is going to be challenging Chris Jericho for the FTW Championship. Any last words before that match? Shibata uses his Google Translate voice-to-text to “say” that he is going to chop down The Learning Tree and take Jericho’s title. And any plans for Shane Taylor? Shibata “says,” Rampage will see him take on STP alone. But then Daniel Garcia steps in. Garcia tells Shibata-san that he has respect for him. If Shibata needs help against STP, Garcia will help him. What does he say?
Shibata takes a moment to type it out, and says okay. Save the last dance for him. Garcia nods and dances his way off screen. Will the Dragonslayer help The Wrestler take the fight to Big Bad Shaney T. Boy?

Winner: Swerve Strickland, by pinfall (still AEW World Champion)
It was a shootout ’til the end, and in the end, Swerve had more ammo in his arsenal! But he still shows Claudio respect by offering a handshake. Claudio stands, and he shakes Swerve’s hand. The Realest is rolling on, but who will look to go Double or Nothing with him in just one month’s time?
My Thoughts:
A great Collision, even with it having to be slightly delayed by NBA Playoffs. There was criticism out there that Swerve didn’t get a chance to talk on Dynamite, but he still had a really good promo to open Collision, and it worked better that he’d be able to reference the attack on Tony Khan from Dynamite. Swerve subtly calls out a lot of wrestlers within AEW, and technically some outside of AEW, by saying he doesn’t like people just calling themselves “Best in the World.” He and Claudio had an awesome main event match, though maybe a false finish too many. Swerve of course retained, and can’t wait to see who a now EVP dominated AEW chooses as Swerve’s opponent. It would be hilariously corrupt of The Bucks to make it Jack Perry.
Great Six Man title match tonight, solid first defense for Bang Bang Gang. Great tag match from Acclaimed with Grizzled Young Veterans, but it makes sense Acclaimed would win as the AEW home team. I’m just not sure where Acclaimed go from here other than Billy Gunn saying they can return to the tag division and challenge The Bucks. After all, FTR got pretty banged up in the ladder match and it’d be a bit soon for them to get a rematch against The Bucks. Swerve could team up with The Acclaimed if they’re all going to target The Elite, and vice-versa, going towards Double or Nothing.
Great return matches for Rey Fenix and Rush, but I didn’t think Rush would just do a squash match. Fenix, Pac and Penta all being healthy at the same time, Death Triangle going for the trios titles? Lucha Bros going for tag titles? And I’m really hoping LFI truly gets going here in AEW, also going for the trios titles or something like that. Really good promo from Cassidy with Kris and then Cassidy with Chuck to hype up the Parking Lot Brawl, that thing is gonna kick off Rampage and be wild stuff. Good promo from House of Black to call out Edge, but you can bet this won’t be the only time they go for the TNT Championship. Edge will surely beat Buddy or Brody, and then it’s Malakai challenging at Double or Nothing.
Good promo from Shibata and Garcia to set up a tag match for Rampage, that’ll be great stuff. Good interview promo for Deeb, though it doesn’t add all that much from everything else she’s said to this point. Storm VS Anna was a very good match, and of course Storm won. No Mina showing up was a little surprising, but there’s plenty of time to build the mentor love triangle. Deeb VS Storm will be great stuff, and depending on how they play this, there’s half a chance Deeb wins because Storm will end up preoccupied with Mina and Mariah being so close. Deeb can take the title and face Deonna, Rosa, and a number of others while Storm and Mina fight over Mariah quite literally.
My Score: 8.8/10
