Last week FTR and Bullet Club Gold had one of the best matches on AEW Collision so far, and that match earned Bullet Club Gold’s Jay White and Juice Robinson a shot at FTR’s AEW World Tag Team Championships. That match took place on tonight’s Collision, and if you thought the last one was great, this match left that one in the dust. Dax and Cash got off to an extremely hot start, but White and Robinson would get the first fall. FTR was poised to get the second fall for what seemed like an eternity, but White wouldn’t stay down. Eventually, FTR got the second fall, and then all four stars were back in the ring to brawl for the last one. After a host of near falls and spectacular moments, it would be FTR to get the third and final fall, allowing FTR to retain their Championships.
