Ricky Starks to challenge Ricky Steamboat for All Out on AEW Collision

Posted: Aug 31st 2023 By: Ethan Renner

Ricky Starks will challenge Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat to an All Out strap match on Saturday's AEW Collision episode.

AEW's Tony Khan announced the new segment for Collision on X Wednesday night.

Steamboat served as the special outside enforcer for a Starks vs. CM Punk match on the August 5 Collision episode, a match won by Punk. After the bout, Starks attacked Steamboat, whipping him with Steamboat's own belt. As a result, Starks was issued a storyline suspension of 30 days, later reduced to 28 days.

Steamboat, 70, wrestled what was billed as his retirement match last November at a Big Time Wrestling event, teaming with FTR against Jay Lethal, Nick Aldis, and Brock Anderson. That match was Steamboat's first since 2010.

Saturday's Collision will be held in Chicago at the United Center, the same venue as the next night's All Out.

The updated lineup for Saturday's Collision, the go-home show for Sunday's All Out pay-per-view:

Ricky Starks to challenge Ricky Steamboat to a strap match at All Out
Dax Harwood vs. Jay White
World Trios Championship: Max Caster, Anthony Bowens & Billy Gunn defend against Daniel Garcia, Matt Menard & Angelo Parker
Saraya, Toni Storm & Ruby Soho vs. Britt Baker, Hikaru Shida & Kris Statlander
