Saturday’s episode of AEW Collision will have a notable name in attendance as the promotion holds the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament finals.
A few months ago, while speaking at the Double or Nothing post-event press conference, AEW President Tony Khan noted he would love to have WWE Hall of Famer Jushin Thunder Liger at the tournament finals.
It looks like Liger has taken Khan up on his offer, as he noted on Twitter that he is headed to Calgary, Canada, where Collision will be held, for the finals.
Hart and Liger had several memorable matches in their careers. He wrote the following (via Google translation):
“I am at Haneda Airport now. From now on, I will go to Calgary, Canada via San Francisco. I was invited as a guest at Owen Hart’s memorial tournament ☆ I’m looking forward to Calgary after a long time.”
Here is the updated card for Saturday’s show from the Saddledome:
AEW Tag Team Champions FTR defend against Jay White & Juice Robinson
Men’s Owen Hart Tournament Final: CM Punk vs. Ricky Starks
Women’s Owen Hart Tournament Final: Willow Nightingale or Athena vs. Skye Blue or Ruby Soho
