Andrade El Idolo vs. Buddy MatthewsFTR (C) vs. MJF & Adam Cole
It’s main event time!
The commentary team runs down the updated lineups for next week’s special 200th episode of AEW Dynamite on Wednesday night, as well as next week’s AEW Collision show on Saturday night. After that, we head to another commercial break.
When we return from the break, Dasha is in the ring and she begins the ring introductions for our main event of the evening, which features the AEW World Tag-Team Championships on-the-line.
MJF’s theme hits and the crowd explodes as “The Devil” and his tag-team partner and emerging best friend, Adam Cole (…BAY-BAY!) make their way out and head to the ring. After winning the AEW Blind Eliminator Tag-Team Tournament, these two have earned a shot at the AEW World Tag-Team Championship here tonight.
The two settle in the ring and do Adam Cole’s “Boom…Adam Cole, BAY-BAY!” routine, which of course, the fans in Hartford do along with them. The challengers are in the ring and ready to rock and roll as MJF’s theme song dies down.
From there, the Midnight Express-sounding theme for the reigning and defending AEW World Tag-Team Champions plays and out comes the FTR duo of Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler.
The bell sounds and this AEW World Tag-Team Championship main event of this week’s AEW Collision show is now officially off-and-running. We see Dax Harwood and Adam Cole kick things off for their respective teams as a loud dueling chant breaks out from the Hartford crowd.
We see some good back-and-forth action and then Dax takes over and tags in Cash Wheeler, who picks up where he left off, taking it to Cole. Cole finally gets the tag to MJF and the two go for the dreaded double clothesline, but Wheeler hangs onto the ropes to avoid it.
MJF and Wheeler get ready to get after it, but then “The Devil” decides against it and heads out to the floor, where he arrogantly struts around. MJF leads the fans in a loud chant. Harwood tags in. MJF goes to bash Harwood’s nuts in, which he gets the fans to chant, but Harwood avoids it. MJF does the “this close” gesture.
Tensions start running high and the good sportsmanship takes a back seat as all four men end up in the ring shoving each other back-and-forth. On that note, we head to a mid-match commercial break as the main event continues.
When we return from the final commercial time out of the evening, we see FTR both in the ring with MJF as the legal man for the other team. He leaps for a tag but they catch him. They look for a double team spot but MJF counters and plants them both head-first into the mat with a double DDT. The fans cheer him on now as he looks to recover and make it to his corner for the tag.
Cole’s got his hand out-stretched and MJF crawls within inches of making the tag, but FTR yanks him away. MJF ends up rolling and leaping to finally make the tag to Cole. The crowd explodes as Adam Cole hits the ring like a bat out of hell, hitting any-and-everything that moves.
Adam Cole and Dax Harwood end up as the two legal men in the match. Cole works him over and goes for a roll-up pin attempt, but Dax kicks out. After that, Dax starts coming to life on offense until he turns right into a big super kick from Cole for another close near fall attempt.
FTR starts to fire up and take over on offense. They come close to finishing this one off on a few attempts. Harwood puts Cole on the top-rope and heads up after him for a super-plex. He hits it and Wheeler follows up with a diving head butt for a super close near fall, which Cole somehow kicks out of.
Now we see Cole make it to his corner where he tags in MJF. The AEW World Champion hits the ring and he and Dax Harwood start trading back-and-forth shots as the crowd reacts with each one that lands. MJF goes for a pile driver but Harwood counters. MJF rolls him up but Harwood kicks out. Harwood hoists MJF up and bounces him off the ropes for a slingshot power bomb for another close pin attempt.
Finally, MJF fires up and he and Cole look for the double clothesline, but they don’t hit it. Wheeler and Harwood end up scoring a roll-up out of nowhere for the pin fall victory. Adam Cole shakes hands with Harwood and Wheeler in the ring while MJF throws a temper tantrum in the corner of the ring.
Winners and STILL AEW World Tag-Team Champions: FTR
Cole goes over to console MJF after FTR heads to the back. Their music cuts off. We see Cole trying to console MJF and we hear MJF yelling, “I lost the match!” as he fights back tears. Adam Cole gets up and walks across the ring, and we see MJF pop up behind him with the title in his hand, fighting back his desire to blast him with it.
Adam Cole realizes he’s behind him and out-stretches his arms. He tells him to do what he’s got to do. MJF throws the title down and shakes his head. Cole turns around as the fans chant “Hug it out!” Cole marches over and he and MJF embrace with a big hug as the crowd explodes.
The joint-theme for MJF and Adam Cole plays as MJF poses with his title on the ropes in the corner. He jumps down and he and Cole hug once again as the commentators run down the lineup for next week’s 200th episode of AEW Dynamite, as well as next Saturday night’s AEW Collision. That’s how this week’s show goes off the air. Thanks for joining us!
