Quick Summary

AEW introduced a new match format called Clockwork Carnage that will debut at WrestleDream on October 17 in Orlando, Florida. The match involves eight wrestlers entering randomly and competing through two stages; initially, every three minutes another wrestler joins until all have entered, with eliminations occurring via pin or submission. After the eighth entrant, a 15-minute scoring period follows where falls count towards the final tally to determine the winner. Will Ospreay will defend his AEW World Championship in this match against seven other competitors yet to be fully announced.

Story summary

All Elite Wrestling (AEW) introduced a new match format called Clockwork Carnage during their "Collision" event on Saturday. This innovative match features eight wrestlers entering one at every three-minute interval until all have joined. Any wrestler eliminated by pinfall or submission before the eighth entrant is out of contention. Once the full roster participates, the remaining competitors compete in a 15-minute round where each pinfall or submission counts as a fall; the wrestler with the most falls wins. Notably, Will Ospreay will be defending his AEW World Championship during the inaugural Clockwork Carnage match at the upcoming WrestleDream event.
