AEW Dynamite and Collision will air a three-hour combined special tonight, Wednesday, May 20, from the Cross Insurance Arena in Portland, ME, with the AEW World Championship on the line, the AEW Tag Team titles on the line, and a Stadium Stampede preview trios match all confirmed for the go-home show to Double or Nothing.
Allin is in his second AEW World Championship reign and is four nights away from putting both the title and his hair on the line against MJF at Double or Nothing. Bailey was confirmed as Allin’s challenger after the May 16 Collision, with Allin going right back into another title defense after retaining against Sammy Guevara earlier on the same show.
The Jon Moxley vs Kyle O’Reilly match is the second Continental title-adjacent bout in their ongoing trilogy. O’Reilly beat Moxley at Full Gear and again in a Dynamite singles match. The eliminator stipulation means O’Reilly earns a future Continental title shot if he wins for the third time. Mark Briscoe set the bout up on the May 16 Collision after saying O’Reilly needed a tune-up match before the three-hour special.
Tonight is the final episode of Dynamite and Collision before AEW Double or Nothing on May 24 in Flushing, NY. The show airs at 8 PM ET on TBS and HBO Max. Tonight’s lineup, as confirmed by AEW:
