Jon Moxley’s future as the AEW Continental Champion was addressed on Collision.

On June 6, Shane Taylor defeated Alan Angels in a singles match. After the bout, he called out Moxley and the Death Riders, proclaiming that they would no longer be a dominant faction.

Taylor stated that his group, Shane Taylor Promotions, would be the most violent in the company going forward.

The Death Riders, including Jon Moxley, arrived for a trios match against members of STP. The match witnessed interference at different points, with the likes of Wheeler Yuta, Daniel Garcia, and even Shane Taylor getting involved.

The Trios bout ended with PAC hitting a massive lariat on Carlie Bravo for the win.

Later in the night, a backstage segment showed that STP had taken out Yuta, as Taylor blamed tha attack on Moxley while challenging him for a match. The leader of the Death Riders accepted.

It was then confirmed that Jon Moxley would defend the AEW Continental Championship against Shane Taylor on Dynamite Summer Blockbuster on June 10.
