It’s true wherever you find where the best wrestle, it feels like Christmas #AEWCollision!
We’ll be LIVE from NYC with just ONE WEEK from Worlds End! It all starts at 8pm ET/5pm PT or immediately after College Football Playoff on @TNTDrama on the EAST & WEST COAST! pic.twitter.com/IW8r8RQbsP
It is a loaded show consisting mainly of matches in the Continental Classic as wrestlers are jockeying for position to make into the top two spots of the Blue and Gold League, respectively, with the semifinals and finals occurring at AEW World's End.
On tap in the Gold League, Darby Allin looks to continue his momentum after defeating Will Ospreay on Wednesday's Dynamite in the best match of the tournament thus far, as he battles Death Rider member Claudio Castagnoli.

Ospreay looks to get back on the winning track as he takes on Ricochet in a must-win bout for both guys. A loss would essentially knock them out of the tournament.

Also on the show will be TBS champion Mercedes Mone, who is coming off a successful title defense on Sunday at the New Japan Strong Style Evolved event over Hazuki in perhaps the best women's match of 2024. Mone followed that performance up with beating Anna Jay on Wednesday's Dynamite to retain the TBS gold.
