Plans change because Mercury will be in retrograde.
As announced on the August 10th episode of AEW Collision, MXM Collection (Mansoor and Mason Madden) were set to face Top Flight (Dante and Darius Martin) on the August 17th episode of AEW Collision.
However, in a digital exclusive, AEW posted a video in which Mansoor and Madden confronted Top Flight. Mansoor revealed that their match was canceled. Madden clarified that it was the "good kind" of canceled. Mansoor explained that their spiritual healer informed them that Mercury would be in retrograde on August 17th, which meant that they could not compete. But he said that they could compete earlier. Specifically, Mansoor said that they would be able to compete Friday on AEW Rampage.
Top Flight accepted the challenge, so the match was rescheduled for the August 16 episode of AEW Rampage.
