After a busy episode of Dynamite, the action continued on Saturday, Aug. 15, with another edition of AEW Collision from Las Vegas.
This show placed more emphasis on the Continental Challenge Cup, as three more matches took place, including the main event between Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong for a spot in the next round.
Additionally, Adam Page, Bandido and Brody King defended their AEW World Trios Championship against Jay Lethal, Blake Christian and Lee Johnson of the Lethal Twist. Would this makeshift trio solidify their reign with a successful defense?
