Six Continental Classic matches set for AEW Christmas Collision
This Thursday’s special edition of AEW Collision on Christmas Day will feature six Continental Classic matches in the final night of pool action.
Announced during Saturday’s Holiday Bash Collision, Thursday will feature three Blue league matches and three Gold league matches.
Blue league:
Jon Moxley will take on Orange Cassidy, reviving a rivalry that began years ago, while Moxley’s Death Riders faction-mate and CMLL Heavyweight Champion Claudio Castagnoli will square off against Roderick Strong. IWGP World Champion Konosuke Takeshita goes one-on-one with Mascara Dorada.
Takeshita, Dorada, Cassidy and Strong will all wrestle Wednesday.
Gold league:
After his upset loss to Kevin Knight Saturday, Kazuchika Okada will look to rebound as he faces “Speedball” Mike Bailey while Knight goes one-on-one with PAC. After beating Bailey Saturday, Jack Perry takes on Kyle Fletcher.
PAC and Perry will do battle on Wednesday.
The additions join the previously announced Babes of Wrath non-title match.
