It’s Saturday, and AEW Collision was recorded after Dynamite Wednesday night at the Boeing Center at Tech Port in San Antonio, TX, and our commentary team is Tony Schiavone and Nigel McGuinness.

Hangman Adam Page comes to the ring to talk to us. He says that you either die a hero or live long enough to become a villain. He then says that The Opps fought the Death Riders for a year and cleared the way for a fair fight for the AEW World Title, and for that, Page gave Samoa Joe a title shot, and he beat Joe at WrestleDream. He then says he thinks Joe was embarrassed, and because of that, The Opps stabbed him in the back.

He then says they have become the very thing they fought against, and they should have known better. He says Joe thinks he is hunting Page, but the truth is that he is hunting Joe, and he will find him when he wants to. And when he does, he will ruin Joe’s entire life.

Then we get a pre-taped promo from Pac about how he will beat Tomohiro Ishii and remind people the Death Riders still dominate AEW.
