Surprising end to AEW Collision after The Elite member’s rare appearance
The latest episode of AEW Collision had a shocking conclusion after a member of The Elite made his in-ring return. The main event of the show featured a match from the ongoing Continental Classic tournament.
The Elite member in question is the current AEW Continental Champion, Kazuchika Okada. The 37-year-old star made his return to in-ring action after over a month on the most recent episode of Collision. Okada will be defending his Continental title in the Continental Classic.
On this week’s AEW Collision main event, Okada competed in his first Continental Classic match in the Blue League against the current TNT Champion, Daniel Garcia. The two gave it their all in the match, going the full 20 minutes of the time limit. Unfortunately, the time expired when Garcia got close to making Okada tap out.
The match ended in a draw, and both Kazuchika Okada and Daniel Garcia will have to share one point each in the Continental Classic Blue League standings. After the match, Okada offered Garcia a handshake only to disrespect him by showing him the finger in his own style.
Only time will tell if Kazuchika Okada manages to retain his Continental title or if there will be a new champion after the tournament is over.
