AEW Collision results 02/03/24: FTGar? FTR, Garcia outduel The Patriarchy

FTR and Daniel Garcia grabbed another big victory on AEW Collision.

The news in the pro wrestling business continues to flow at such a furious pace that sometimes it’s nice that we actually get to watch some wrestling for a couple of hours. That makes this episode of AEW Collision from Edinburg, Texas almost a form of escapism, as it looks to have a very nice card.

The main event is an interesting matchup pitting Christian Cage and his henchmen in The Patriarchy against FTR and Daniel Garcia, a combo we wouldn’t have thought of a few months ago that’s turned out to make so much sense. There’s also a very intriguing bout between Bryan Danielson and Hechicero as CMLL’s semi-invasion continues.

Let’s sit back and enjoy.

AEW Collision results from Edinburg, Texas:

  • Eddie Kingston def. Bryan Keith by pinfall in a Proving Ground match, meaning Keith would have earned a title shot had he won … but he did not, so there we go
  • Tony Schiavone heads to the ring to announce that Keith is now All Elite, and the Bounty Hunter gets some props from Kingston, who looks irritated when Bryan Danielson also joins them and raises Keith’s arm

  • Jon Moxley cuts a promo about the CMLL wrestlers showing up and thinking this would be “like that show on the other channel” and feature “easy, lazy American wrestlers,” concluding by warning that they better hope the BCC never shows up in their backyard

  • Bryan Danielson def. Hechicero by pinfall; Claudio Castagnoli arrives in time to prevent a post-match sour grapes beatdown from the loser
  • Lexy Nair asks Daniel Garcia and FTR if they’re going to remain a trio, and even though they admit they didn’t expect it, they’re OK with sticking together, and Dax Harwood points out they’re in the trios rankings now to boot
  • Hook def. The Outrunners by submission
  • Mark Briscoe joins Schiavone in the ring and is psyched to be in there with him as he remembers watching Tony call wrestling as a kid; he has some words for House of Black too, who appear on the video screen to threaten to eradicate him from pro wrestling history
  • A hype video is shown to promote Adam Copeland working his way back to a shot at Christian Cage; he’ll be on the show next week

  • Serena Deeb def. Queen Aminata by submission
  • Schiavone is joined by Swerve Strickland, who shouts out other wrestlers he admires during Black History Month, including Ron Simmons, Kofi Kingston(!) and Athena; Swerve thinks he might make his own Black history by defeating Hangman Page on Dynamite and going on to win the AEW World Championship, but he also tells Prince Nana no interference as he wants no excuses when he wins

  • Toni Storm is occupied with her disdain for Deonna Purrazzo, so much so that she can’t be bothered to watch Mariah May’s matches, and she asks Luther to book her a public workout
  • Red Velvet def. Vertvixen by pinfall in a very quick match
  • Daniel Garcia and FTR def. Christian Cage and The Patriarchy by pinfall
